The Good Doctor.

Pick your five favorite TV shows (in no particular order) and answer the following questions. Don’t cheat!

1. Six Feet Under

2. Dexter

3. 24

4. Futurama

5. Prison Break

Who’s your favorite character in 2?

Dexter or Deb

Who’s your least favorite character in 1?

Hard to answer…I wasn’t a big Rico fan.

What’s your favorite episode of 4?

The Sting, such a great episode. So deep for a cartoon.

What’s your favorite season of 5?

Toss up between Season 1 and 2 both were genius, I think 1 wins.

What’s your favorite ship in 3?

So many to choose from…hmm. Jack and Audrey most likely. 

Who is your anti-ship in 2?

Dexter and Lily 

How long have you watched 1?

This past year (did watch all the seasons though)

How did you become interested in 3?

My friend Sophia recommended it, we made a deal she watches one of my shows I watch one of hers….I don’t regret it at all I was hooked….8 seasons later and I am at the finale.

Who’s your favorite actor in 4?

Katey Segal as Turanga Leela

Which show do you prefer? 1, 2, or 5?

SFU, Dexter or PB? Shit thats hard. Dexter then SFU (the most genius of the three) then PB….I think. 

Which show have you seen more episodes of; 1 or 3?

3, I have seen all of the episodes for both shows (except for the 2 hr finale on Monday for 24…but I will). 3 (24) has had more episode.

If you could be anyone from 4, who would you be?

Fry. I feel like I am most like him already (not as dumb) but we are similar in a lot of ways. Plus he gets transported to the year 3000…I want that, bad.

How would you kill off your favorite character in 1?

lol

Give a random quote from 1.

All we have is this moment, right here, right now. The future is just a fucking concept that we use to avoid being alive today. So, be here now-Brenda Chenowith

Would a 3/4 crossover work?

Only if it was on Futurama and it spoofed 24…thats what the simpsons did

Pair two characters in 1 that would make an unlikely, but strangely okay couple.

David and Lisa, idk hard question to answer (David is gay also)

Has 5 inspired you in any way?

Maybe…It inspired me to BREAK OUT OF PRISON. Though on a side note one quote that is mentioned on the show is tattooed on me (not because of the show though, it isn’t a quote originating from the show either)

Overall, which show has a better cast? 3 or 5?

24, though Prison Break had Fitchner and Knepper.

Which has better theme music, 2 or 4? 
Futurama :p

One of television’s best villains (and creepiest).

Theodore Bagwell aka T-Bag. As played by one of Prison Break’s most talented Robert Knepper.

Day 4-Favorite Book

Not sure in all honest maybe the day the voices stopped, a friend lent me the book in the beginning of the school year and it just really struck a cord with me. I really found the book amazing his story amazing. It is a story of schizophrenia and how one man coped with it.

Day 5-Favorite Quote

This is also pretty hard. I have a tattoo on my left wrist “Be the change” short for “be the change you wish/want to see in the world” from gandhi, something I try to (but sometimes don’t succeed) in living by.

Then theres my hs quote “Yes the past can hurt but you can either run from it or learn from it” from lion king one of my favorite movies.

Then you got so many Dexter quotes such as the “I’m whats wrong” thing. 

I’m also quite fond of “One thing you learn when you’re walking the steps, is that you never outsource a blame that belongs in your own backyard.” from Prison Break spoken by the character of Dr. Sara Tancredi because once again too often than not we blame others when the blame belongs upon ourselves. 

I have more but honestly I can’t think of them now. A little loose right now also.

I am going to have to list all the shows I been really involved with recently so I can decide…

• Prison Break (Seasons 1-2=genius, 3=horrible, 4=funish)
• Heroes (Season 1=good, 2/3=ellie was awesome-show sucks though)
• Roseanne
• Three’s Company
• 24
• Arrested Development
• Futurama! (one of my favorites)
• Six Feet Under (but only on season one so i will get back to you)
• Dexter
• Veronica Mars

These are just a few that came to mind. Now for the elimination round.

Heroes is trash. Arrested Development, Roseanne, Three’s Company hold a special spot but a comedy can’t beat a serialized show imo. Notice how I left out Futurama I think that is so well written and also has some good serialized/serious moments and episodes (can’t wait for it to return). Six Feet Under while I really like it is disqualified only because i haven’t seen the other four seasons…yet (just ordered the dvds). Veronica Mars=Awesome but that is the next to go…BRING IT BACK! 

We are left with. Prison Break, 24, Dexter and Futurama.

Prison Break=Genius…GENIUS writing first two seasons such a amazing show…but then it went to shit season three and got entertaining but a tad stupid in the final season. So sorry PB i love you but you aren’t number one.

24=A lot of fun, suspense but recently its been losing my interest. It has been on too long it needs to end though although it never is terrible and doesn’t dip to a bad point. Its been average but never below that the show always has its moments and Jack Bauer is thug.

Futurama=Amazing funny clever comedy, great voices, great writing, great serious moments such as between Fry and Leela and the episode with Fry’s dog. I also really identify with Fry.

Dexter=A new favorite so amazing, always great I can’t wait for season five…despite…..

So here it goes.

4. 24
3. Futurama
2. Prison Break

and drum roll….or process of elimanation.

1. Dexter

Prison break was a very big part of my life at one point. Much like I talk about Dexter now I talked about PB genius writing season 1 and 2…3 not so much, 4 fun but not good writing.

While I am thinking about school, I am going to think about school. The fact that I am so uncertain about what career path I want to pursue.. I wanted to do film, i kinda want to do english but I still am unsure. I blame television.

Television and movies makes jobs look SO much more glamorous than they are.

Why can’t I be a awesomely clever architect (Michael Scofield, Prison Break)?
Why can’t I be a bad ass private detective (Veronica Mars & Keith Mars, Veronica Mars)? 
Why can’t I dig up bones and have a exciting mystery unravel and play itself out in thirty minutes (CSI, Bone ect.)?
Why can’t I deliver pizzas and then get frozen in time and then be sent to the future to send packages to distant planets risking my life with a robot and a one eyed hottie by my side (Fry, Futurama)? 
Why can’t I just eat donuts and accidently be responsible for a nuclear blasts (Homer, The Simpsons)?
Why can’t I save America countless times as a agent in the government in twenty four hours (Jack Bauer, 24)?
Why can’t I be the cool cop who does nothing but drink and screw around (Superbad)?
Why can’t I be a scientist who makes crazy inventions and thus gets superpowers and does awesome things (every comic book movie)?
Why can’t I be a quirky doctor has tons of day dreams and in the end marries Sarah Chalke and is best friends with the dude from clueless (J.D, Scrubs)?
Why can’t I work at a office where you do NOTHING but fool around and have a good time (Everyone, The Office)?
Why can’t I turn into a silver puddle (Alex Mack, Alex Mack)?…ok maybe not that one, plus its not a job.

“The Office, our job entails doing nothing and getting payed for it.”

Why? Because those jobs are nothing like they are portrayed, some require a ton of school, some are hard and most likely don’t make a lot of money (do people still hire private detectives?), some are impossible, some involve dying and injuries….Point being those jobs aren’t nearly as glamorous as portrayed. Against my better judgement though I still want to try my hand at some of these jobs because they make it so cool (wow I guess i am easily persuaded).

In a perfect world all these jobs would be just as glamorous I suppose. Now tell me where do I apply for one of these jobs listed above…I suppose Narnia, that or whatever alternate universe Martha Stewert lives in where ex-cons make reputable home decorators?

My Heroes of Television and in General

Jack Bauer: Because he’s fucking Jack Bauer this dude has saved America so many times. Killed so many thugs and put his ass on the line so many times…He IS America. A true american hero does what is necessary to serve and protect. (Plus he has a hot daughter). The most kick ass character there ever was. And yes Jack Bauer > Chuck Norris. This guy lives by “The ends justify the means”.

Stephen Colbert: Along the lines of people that embody America we must mention Colbert. I mean look at him he is so patriotic why is this guy not the president. He should be the president with Jack Bauer protecting him.

Veronica Mars: This chick right here is the BEST person you want on your side when you’ve been wronged, become a victim or facing the law. Do not mess with this bitch because she WILL get even and one-up you (guess its not called getting even then)…Plus she is sexy as hell.

Turanaga Leela: An orphan from the starts this if veronica mars will beat your ass you can be certain that your ass is grass with Leela. She is as sexy as they come for animated characters even while sporting one eye, she is a force to be reckoned with. Bottom line don’t fuck with this chick.

Michael Scofield: I had to debate a few different people from Prison Break..Alex Mahone the badass cop, Sara Tancredi the hotness, T-Bag the snake…but I had to settle on the smartest most clever person to be on television. Michael Scofield…No I didn’t choose this pciture because I admire his body (I do not swing that way) but because he has a badass tattoo that doubles as blueprints for a prison. This guy is a fucking genius.

Phillip J. Fry: He isn’t the most smart person ever (but way smarter than he is given credit for). He has terrible luck, he didn’t fit in well to his own era. He has a good sense of humor and a caring side. This guy is the character i most relate to (though I like to believe I don’t lack the delta brain wave like he does). I feel much like him I would fit way better into the year 3000 than here and am waiting for my chance to be frozen. This guy is awesome.

Honorable Mentions:
Chloe O’Brian (24)
Nibbler (Futurama)
Alex Mack (The Secret World of Alex Mack)
Alex Mahone (Prison Break)
