Meme

i always end up wanting to type "Mame" instead of Meme, which makes me giggle and think of Auntie Mame, which is a movie i love and adore. anyway, i gacked this from [livejournal.com profile] trollprincess:

Name ten cancelled shows you love. Extra credit for those killed before their time. Double extra credit for shows with major queer text/subtext.

im just not sure i can actually come up with 10...

1) Earth 2 - they only gave us one stinking season. and it was about humanity, and aliens, and damnit, i just wanted one little kiss between Devon and Danziger. thats Danz in my icon. :) and Antonio Sabato Jr? where is the bad here?

2) Roswell - this show had such fabulous potential. so much so that TVguide was afraid of us, and there were tiny bottles of tabasco being mailed in millions to TPTB. and then they gave us season 2, killed Alex (i cried all over myself), and then got cancelled. what? third season? there was no third season. no.

3) P.S. I Love You - this is a show i barely remember, but it was funny, and had the cool dad from My Two Dads on it. it was about a cop and a woman in the witness protection program. hee!

4) FarScape - im just getting into it, in all honesty, but i want.more.now.

5) Angel - the bastages.

6) Daria - what a great, sarcastic, cynical cartoon. damn you anyway, mtv.

7) Clarissa Explains it All - nick show, very clever, much cooler than Sabrina, the Teenage Witch, regardless of the same actress. and *Sam*. i loved Sam.

8) MacGyver - oh come on, if you know me at all, you knew this would be on here.

9) Avonlea - i admit it, i loved this show. gus pike, felicity king, hetty, olivia, felix..*sigh*

10) Sliders - infinately cool concept. parellel universes..

anything else?

1 Finally, someone else who loved Earth 2!

2 I didn't even know Roswell was canceled, obviously I never watched it.

3 Never heard of it.

4 Watched the first season and didn't care for it after that, a little too sex oriented, but still funny and good.

5 Oh God WHY???

6 Fuck you MTV

7 That show was the love of my childhood. Sam had such fashion sense.

8 No No No!!!

9 I thought it was sweet, but never got into it.

10 So cool, until the twin came in that is. It was like Quantum Leap, only hotter.

i more than love Earth 2. im so glad anyone else on lj has heard of it. i keep using the icon in the hopes that someone will comment with "hey! thats from that show!" but no luck at all..tvshowsondvd.com and i are still arguing about whether it needs to be offered on dvd. we wants it!

I want it! Well, I probably wouldn't buy it, but I would rent. It's been so long since I've seen it. Is sci fi channel still running it's reruns from time to time?

[identity profile] aliaspiral.livejournal.com 2004-07-04 09:16 am (UTC)(link)
i dont think so, but i have the most basic of basic cable, so no sci fi for me. *sigh* i miss major cable.

1. Quantum Leap - loved this show, loved the premise of time and space travel entangled with detective work

2. Angel - now words, just tears

3. Buffy - must say that it was time for it to go in my opinion, doesn't mean i miss it any less

4. Boy Meets World - i had a major jones for ryder strong, just that name... almost as good as sean biggerstaff...

5. Greg the Bunny - the saddest day was when I found out that my impression of tardy would be obsolete

6. Party of Five

7. two guys and a girl - this show was clever, always made me laugh and is sorely missed

8. Seaquest DSV - I cried when I found out that Jonathan Brandis killed himself

9. clarissa explains it all - loved that show, also loved sam...

10. wonder years - need i say more. this show was it for me. one of the first that i followed faithfully... the first female crush that i ever had... winnie...

oh, i thought about putting quantum leap on my list, but i dont think i would watch it again if it was on. thats what i based my decisions on.

buffy i serioously considered too, but im still very bitter about how much the final season and the finale itself sucked, so im not willing to list it. it will make me angry..but buffy seasons 1-4ish..oh, how i miss you..you too Oz.

was two guys and a girl, originally, 2 guys, a girl and a pizza place?

[identity profile] saidy.livejournal.com 2004-07-05 09:17 am (UTC)(link)
it did include a pizza place for the first season or two... then they moved on and there was no pizza place to be found, and they changed the name...

I'm a big fan of Earth 2! I was so upset when it was cancelled... I've been admiring your icon for a while now. *g*

Emily :)

OMG, I LOVED Earth 2...I watched that all the damn time. That and Sliders (Until it went to the Sci Fi channel and all the original characters disappeared)

I also miss Duck Man, Weird Science the TV show, Mission Hill, and Tales From the Crypt.
