Guess My Favourite Character
Blatantly ripped off from Wyrd's blog:
- List 10 television series.
- Have your friends guess your favorite character from each one.
- I'll cross out the show and put the character when someone guesses.
Note that like her post, these aren't in any particular order (though I maintain that Babylon 5 is still the best)
| Show | Character | Winner |
| Babylon 5 | Delenn | Melanie |
| Firefly | River | Melanie (x2) |
| Deep Space Nine | Ben Sisko | Ted (x2) |
| Sex and the City | Charlotte | Melanie |
| Alias | Jack Bristow | Angela |
| Alley McBeal | Alley | Melanie |
| Buffy the Vampire Slayer | Willow | Angela |
| Battlestar Galactica | Adama | Melanie (x2) |
| The Animaniacs | Wacko Warner | Ted |
| Angel | Wesley Wyndam-Pryce | Angela |
Holy Crap!! I can't believe I forgot all of those great shows! I guess I was thinking about the ones that were currently on TV. Silly me. Anyway:
1. John Sheridan
2. Mal Reynolds (?)
3. not sure (didn't watch it much) - Kyra Nerisse?
4. the short-red-haired one? (I'm blanking on her name)
5. Jack Bristow
6. not sure - the short-curly-blond-haired lawyer dude?
7. I should know this... Willow Rosenburg?
8. we've never talked about it, so I'm not sure. Starbuck?
9. absolutely no clue!
10. Wesley Wyndam-Pryce
I've never watched any of the other shows, but my guess for Sex and the City is Miranda.
That's two votes for Miranda now... I'd seriously considered her, but at the last moment decided I liked someone else just a little bit more...
1) Delenn
2) Kaylee. or Jayne. Every boy wants to be Jayne and wants to be with Kaylee.
3) Garak? :)
4) On our first date you told me Miranda was your favourite, and then decided that no, you prefered Charlotte. I was a teensy bit dissapointed, because I am so much more Miranda than I will ever be Charlotte.
6) god dammit. It's Ally, isn't it? XP
8) My guess would also have been Starbuck. My runner-up is Gaius. I miss this show. I am still mid-season two. :(
9) uh. Pinky?
I'm stealing this.
What?? What?? I got John Sheridan wrong? Damm! Okay, in that case, I'm POSITIVE of who it is! May I guess a second time?
And Melanie, I certainly hope not every boy wants to be Jayne. I'd be so disappointed.
Melanie got a few right, but sadly, you're both still wrong when it comes to Battlestar Galactica. How could you possibly think that I like Gaius? He's my LEAST favourite! I'm really surprised that neither of you could guess this one.
I often waffle between Miranda and Charlotte as they're both awesome, but I think, in the end, I like the hopeless romantic a lot more than the realist.
So Angela, was your second guess right?
teehee - I just noticed that your favourite Angel character is "Weasley". I couldn't have named him better myself. :)
Angela had the correct spelling.
also, I am changing my Firefly guess to River, based mainly on the fact that she is my least favourite character on the show.
Oops. Thanks for catching that. As for Firefly, you're right... even if it took you 2 guesses :-P
I kind of like being listed as Melanie x2. Twice the Melanie for only half the price!
Deep Space Nine - Chief Miles Edward O'Brien
Battlestar Galactica - Lt. Sharon 'Boomer' Valerii
The Animaniacs - Wakko Warner
Animaniacs: The Brain
Deep Space Nine: Dax
I've never actually watched Battlestar Galactica, please don't hate me.
Ted, you got the one I thought no one would get: Wacko Warner. How can you not love him? He eats everything :-)
Jiff, it'd take a lot more than your not watching Battlestar Galactica for me to hate you. Sadly however, you have scored a big fat zero with your other selections :-(
nyah!
How about Dr.Bashir?
Sorry Jen, no joy with Bashir.
I can't believe no one has guessed those last two yet... And the funny bit is that this person is essentially the same archtype on both shows. Funny that.
No joy? Kinda odd for an NDPer to be coining a military expression! [snicker]
Anyhoo, same archetype, eh? Hmmmm. Ben Sisko and Prez Roslyn (both being "chosen ones"/Messiah figures?
I'd seriously considered Roslyn but changed my mind at the last minute... so given that you were right about Ben Sisko, the Battlestar Galactica character should be obvious now. ;-)
Adama.
This game must die.
Congrats, Daniel, your's is done - I still have some slots to fill on mine, though. Feel free to surf on by and make some more guesses!
Cheers,
Ted
Damn, I wish I'd come back earlier and made my guesses! My second B5 guess (Dalenn) would have been right, and for BSG I would have guessed Roslin, then Adama. And you liked Ben Sisko? Something about the actor himself drove me nuts, so I could never really appreciate the character that well. Funness!
