Ugh, it is too hot and I am going through my third (fourth?) cold of this year, so the last couple of days I've taken pretty gently. I think it's time for a nice, relaxing meme update and then some smokin' hot Kaidan romance (in Mass Effect!).
Day 02 - A show that you wish more people were watching
Day 03 - Your favorite new show (aired this TV season)
The Good Wife
The Good Wife is an American legal drama starring Julianna Margulies. She plays a woman who returns to lawyering after many years away raising her children and homekeeping because of a scandal her important husband gets into. For me, this show has a perfect balance of plot-arcs, character-arcs and legal-case-of-the-week in every episode. It does not pass the Bechdel test so much as run it over with a monster truck filled with awesome ladies and their awesome non-men-centric conversations. I can't go on about how much I love this show and how excited I am to be watching it. When there is content that could be uncomfortable for me, I trust this show to handle it right, and I haven't been disappointed yet.

Day 04 - Your favorite show ever
Without an ultimate cagematch as the decider, my favourite show is a joint win between Star Trek: Voyager and Farscape. I watched both from an early age, had huge conscious crushes on male leads (John Crichton and Tom Paris - woah, one is much more badass than the other). Kathryn Janeway was and is one of my biggest inspirations and heroes, and OMG Aeryn Sun is just the supreme hotness (she was my big subconscious crush).
Voyager and Farscape have pretty much defined a lot of my media intake for a long time, shaped how I viewed other media, and (especially with Farscape) shaped my writing and my creativity. ♥, you two shows. Ultimate ♥.
