I have a very odd history when it comes to watching TV. Very, very odd. As in, up until about six months ago I didn't watch any. At all. Except for maybe Jeopardy every so often.

I think it was around... December last year?... that I finally gave in to [livejournal.com profile] etharei 's loud singing of Supernatural's praise and watched it and promptly fell in love (though since it is, after all, a horror show, I had to read a recap before I could watch it to skip the scary parts). I am still in love, by the way, though it is distinctly worrying me with this fourth season. WORRYING ME GREATLY. *eyes Dean and Sam* SHAPE UP KIDS.

Then I succumbed to everyone in the world singing Merlin's praises (this also included Rei) and watched it and CANNOT WAIT FOR THE SECOND SEASON HURRY UP OKAY YOU GUYS? *eyes* Mostly I watch Merlin for the lulz and the drama. AND THE BOYS, OF COURSE, BECAUSE THEY ARE JUST TOO ADORABLE.

I watch Legend of the Seeker on and off now too, though that's more of a 'when I have lots of time' show.

... and then, this weekend, I fell with a spectacular bang and found the actor who can make me laugh and cry simultaneously BUT HE WAS ONLY THE DOCTOR FOR ONE SEASON ARRRGH.

YEAH THAT'S RIGHT YOU GUYS. I am watching Doctor Who ([livejournal.com profile] etharei , is it weird that I can at least indirectly blame you for THREE out of my FOUR TV shows? Or does it just mean that you have awesome taste?).

But.... but.. *wibbles* I liked the Ninth Doctor, can I have him back pls? No, seriously. David Tennant's cute and funny, but Christopher Eccleston ripped my heart out of my chest and then was all like 'OH WAIT LAUGH NOW!' I have never watched another actor who can do that. Never. Him with the Dalek in Episode 6 was heartrendingly sad and terrifying, and the finale made me sob. BOTH TIMES I'VE WATCHED IT.

I leave this random post of nostalgia with AWESOMENESS.

David Tennant's good and all, and he has an adorable smile, but Eccleston was totally better. XD And that FINALE. I think, any other actors I would have yelled "DUES EX MACHINA!" at the screen, but they made it so... so good. Ahhhh! I dunno how to explain it? But honestly, I don't think I have ever seen anything so beautiful as him saying "Maybe it's time" and then Rose saying "I want you safe. My Doctor."

ACTUALLY! I have watched various parts of Buffy! I didn't put it down because, well, it's not a current show, and I like these four better. Buffy's okay what I've seen of it, and then there are some parts that are kind of awesome, but all in all I like these ones better.

I'm only on series 2 of Doctor Who, so we'll see how I end up liking it, but the first series was wicked brilliant. *hugs it happily*

You need to watch seasons 1-3 of Buffy in order. Then you will understand the awesome.
