guessing games again

[wisdomeagle]

likeadeuce played the 25 favorite characters as a guessing game. I like guessing games. Can you guess my favorite characters from these 25 shows?


1. Buffy: the Vampire Slayer - Giles, guessed by scrollgirl. (Tara is a close second.)
2. Angel - Fred, guessed by mari4212 and malnpudl. (Wesley is a close second.)
3. Firefly - Kaylee, guessed by inlovewithnight and malnpudl
4. West Wing - CJ, guessed by inlovewithnight and malnpudl
5. Stargate: Atlantis - McKay, gussed by malnpudl. (Weir is a close second.)
6. Sports Night - Natalie, guessed by malnpudl
7. Veronica Mars - Keith, guessed by jedi_penguin
8. House M.D. - House, guessed by 2weeks3days. (Cuddy is a close second).
9. Farscape
10. Andromeda
11. Stargate: SG-1 - Daniel, guessed by inlovewithnight. (Sam is a close second.)
12. Star Trek: Deep Space Nine - Kira Nerys, guessed by likeadeuce (Odo is a distant second.)
13. As Time Goes By
14. Keeping Up Appearances
15. Sabrina: the Teenage Witch - Salem is one correct answer, guessed by 2weeks3days
16. Dark Angel
17. Star Trek (original series) - Spock, guessed by malnpudl

23. Arthur and Friends Francene, guessed by jedi_penguin
24. The Adventures of Rocky and Bullwinkle - Rocky, guessed by likeadeuce

I should have said "let's see if I can think of 24 shows that don't prove I watched nothing but public television during my formative years." But the answer would have been no.

1. Faith
2. Wesley
3. Jayne
4. Josh
7. Logan
8. House
15. SALEM
16. Max?
17. Scottie
19. Carmen Sandiego
24. Boris
25. Moe

[wisdomeagle]

8 + 15 are right!

[2weeks3days.livejournal.com]

Who doesn't love those two, I mean really?

Ah, my record sucks.

[mari4212.livejournal.com]

1. Tara
2. Fred
5. Elizabeth Weir
11. Samantha Carter
22. Wishbone himself?

[wisdomeagle]

Fred is right. Weir and Sam are really close seconds, and Tara is up there as well. I love Wishbone himself, but no. :)

[inlovewithnight.livejournal.com]

Firefly- Kaylee
West Wing- CJ
Atlantis- Weir
SG1- Daniel?

Frankly, I just have to fangirl you madly for having As Time Goes By and Keeping Up Appearances on there. Britcom LOVE!

[wisdomeagle]

Kaylee, CJ, and Daniel are right. Weir is a really close second. :)

Britcoms are made of love. :)

[malnpudl.livejournal.com]

Without looking at what other folks have guessed...

1. Buffy: the Vampire Slayer - Tara
2. Angel - Fred
3. Firefly - Kaylee
4. West Wing - CJ
5. Stargate: Atlantis - I'm not sure if it's Weir or McKay... I'll go with Weir
6. Sports Night - I have no idea... Natalie?
8. House M.D. - Cuddy
11. Stargate: SG-1 - Sam
16. Dark Angel - Original Cindy
17. Star Trek (original series) - I don't know... Spock?
21. Vicar of Dibley

[malnpudl.livejournal.com]

Oops, forgot one:

21. Vicar of Dibley - This is so hard to guess! I love them all so much. Umm... Gerry? (Unless it's Alice. Oh, this is hard.)

[wisdomeagle]

Geraldine is right, but Alice is so much love. Hee! I'm giggling just thinking about her.

[wisdomeagle]

Fred, Kaylee, CJ, Natalie, and Spock are all correct.

Weir is a close second; McKay is right. (Though tomorrow this may change. Or if I think really hard about Weir's breasts.) Cuddy is also a close second (in much the same way). Come to think of it, so is Sam. BtVS I am pretty sure I chose my favorite, but maybe if enough of my friends guess Tara, I'll have to change my mind. :)

[scrollgirl.livejournal.com]

I was so going to say Tara, but now I'm gonna have to guess Giles.

[wisdomeagle]

That's right. :)

I don't know! Maybe I should rewatch S4 and 5 and 6 and fall in love with Tara again

[malnpudl.livejournal.com]

Giles was my other guess for BtVS. I don't have 'em all... but I'm pretty good, eh? ;-)

And I just remembered that you did this once before... and I know who your SG-1 character is! I'm not going to say; I'll leave it for other people to guess. But I will gloat that I (eventually) got it right last time. *g*

[jedi-penguin.livejournal.com]

13. Judith
18. the little kitten. What was his name? I remember you did an excellent drabble with him, but apparently my memory doesn't extend far enough. :(
23. the girl whose parents are world travellers. Jenna?
25. everybody loves Curly, but I take you for a Larry gal

[wisdomeagle]

18 is right (Daniel S. Tiger) and so is 25! That's some very impressive deducing. (I think the girl whose parents are world travelers is Suellen?)

Also, icon, squee! :)

[jedi-penguin.livejournal.com]

Sandy tells me that you're correct: the world traveler IS Sue Ellen.

Let's see if I can get the other two on a second try: Lionel Hardcastle and Francine Fremsky. (If FF isn't correct, Muffy Crosswire is my backup choice. I'm CERTAIN that it's one of the girls...)

Also, I just assumed that someone else had guessed #7 so I didn't try before. Your favorite character on VM has to be Keith Mars.

Also, icon, squee! :)

Thanks! I found a ATGB community and snagged it there. I love it because it has definitely fem-slashy vibes. I never would have seen the chemistry between Judith and Sandy before you pointed it out to me, but now it just seems glaring. I totally don't believe in the Judith/Alistair wedding and happy-ever-after, because you've convinced me that she's gay-gay-gay. *laughing*

[wisdomeagle]

Francine is right; so, of course, is Keith. :)

Eee, I am happy, for I spread the girlslash far and wide.

[likeadeuce.livejournal.com]

12. Kira
24. Mr. Peabody

[wisdomeagle]

12 is absolutely correct -- and mad impressive, unless I talked about this and have since forgotten.

[likeadeuce.livejournal.com]

I'm sure we haven't discussed it, I just guessed you going for the women in the space shows, and Kira seemed more right for you than Dax -- ie, lucky guess.

24. Rocky?

[wisdomeagle]

My top two in so many fandoms are "super-smart and possibly snarky guy" and "really really hot woman," and it's kind of a toss-up which will be #1 and which #2. Kira pretty much falls into the "really really hot woman" category for me.

[likeadeuce.livejournal.com]

Natasha then!

[wisdomeagle]

And because I am stupid, I forgot to say that yes, Rocky was correct. (I'm not sure where he fits -- I know he's supposed to be a boy, but he SOUNDS like a girl, because his VA is female, and he is an animated squirrel so has no biological sex, and I always thought he was a girl when I was younger. I suspect he falls into the "cheerful bouncy and made-of-awesome" group that contains Natalie and Kaylee. Also, he can FLY!

[alixtii.livejournal.com]

19. Patty

[wisdomeagle]

You win at the total-recall section. :)

[alixtii.livejournal.com]

Did we ever get the answers for these? I couldn't find them when I looked.

[wisdomeagle]

Not that I recall. Would you like them?

[alixtii.livejournal.com]

Very much, especially since I can't figure out who the Dark Angel person would be if it's not Original Cindy. Lydeker for the daddy!kink? Major Kira (or whatever the character's real name is)?

[wisdomeagle]

1. Buffy: the Vampire Slayer - Giles
2. Angel - Fred
3. Firefly - Kaylee
4. West Wing - CJ
5. Stargate: Atlantis - McKay
6. Sports Night - Natalie
7. Veronica Mars - Keith
8. House M.D. - House
9. Farscape - John
10. Andromeda - Trance
11. Stargate: SG-1 - Daniel
12. Star Trek: Deep Space Nine Kira Nerys
13. As Time Goes By - Jean
14. Keeping Up Appearances - Elizabeth, Daisy, Richard
15. Sabrina: the Teenage Witch - Hilda, Zelda, or Salem
16. Dark Angel - Logan Cale
17. Star Trek (original series) - Spock
18. Mister Rogers' Neighborhood - Daniel S. Tiger
19. Where in the World is Carmen Sandiego? - Patty Larceny
20. Two of a Kind - Kevin OR Carrie
21. Vicar of Dibley - Geraldine
22. Wishbone - Ellen Talbot
23. Arthur and Friends - Francine
24. The Adventures of Rocky and Bullwinkle - Rocky
25. The Three Stooges - Larry Fine

Lydecker and Mme X are both good guesses too. Possibly if I watched it again, post-DS9, I'd be a larger Mme X fan.

[alixtii.livejournal.com]

Wait--her name was Mme. X?

Logan Cale is made of awesome, but I wouldn't have expected him to have rated that highly on your list. Hmm.

[wisdomeagle]

Well, according to IMDb, we eventually discover her name is Elizabeth Renfro, but Madame X was what she was known as until that was revealed. I think. It's been a long time since I've seen Dark Angel.

Which leads us to point 2. I watched Dark Angel a long time ago, when my fannish preferences were quite different than they are now. (I almost said my "tastes" were different, but I haven't changed that much. I like the same characters/pairings, it's just the order or preference that's changed.)

[alixtii.livejournal.com]

Also, Two of a Kind, assuming it's the show I vaguely think I remember, is clearly(?) either the father or the babysitter, with my vote on the babysitter.

[wisdomeagle]

Yup. :)
