TV Meme catchup days 22-4

A combination of work and a day off with a headache...

Day 22 - Favorite series finale

Anne, predictably: MASH

Me: right at the moment? Has to be Ashes to Ashes.

Day 23 - Most annoying character

Anne: Wesley Crusher, from ST:TNG (thus proving she's a sane, well-adjusted human being)

Me: Indubutably Joxer from Xena: Warrior Princess. Meant to be annoying, does it very well.

Day 24 - Best quote

Both from the same show, and the same eminently quotable character, too:

Anne: "If you'll excuse me - I have fifteen things fighting for my attention, all of them annoying" - a quote she empathises with.

Me: "Who am I? I am Susan Ivanova, Commander. Daughter of Andre and Sophie Ivanov. I am the right hand of vengeance and the boot that is going to kick your sorry ass all the way back to Earth, sweetheart! I am death incarnate, and the last living thing that you will ever see. God sent me."

To quote JMS: "If you look at "Give me liberty or give me death!" or similar statements, made to rally support or make a point, they're generally bigger than life, a bit over the top. That's so we can know where the top is so we can climb up there ourselves."

Have to admit, though, to a sneaking fondness for Gene Hunt's "Drop your weapons: you are surrounded by armed bastards..." among many many others.
