One of my newest Twitter friends Rae tagged me in this blog hop, celebrating something I love. TV. Movies. Characters.

Rae is fantabulous! Seriously, she’s great fun and a great short story critiquer. Go check out her blog here.

Instructions: For this quick, fun blog hop, you just name your 10 favorite characters from movies or TV, then tag 10 friends to do the same!

I stuck with TV, so that I didn’t go completely insane trying to narrow the list. And I stuck with one character from each of my chosen shows, which hurt. HURT! A few of these show… I love everyone.

On with the fun!

1. Buffy_logo_0001 Willow Rosenberg played by Alyson Hannigan. I love her.

Either the light…

Or the dark version…

2. FarscapeJohn Crichton played by Ben Browder. This show, people. This show. ❤ All the characters… Aeryn Sun (Claudia Black), Ka D’Argo (Anthony Simcoe), Pa’u Zotoh Zhaan (Virginia Hey), Chiana (Gigi Edgley), Dominar Rygel XVI (voice by Jonathan Hardy) They’re all in the gif… so call me a cheater if you will.

3. enhanced-buzz-14375-1389997814-8Sarah Manning played by Tatiana Maslany… of course, being clones, Sarah plays them all.

10. logo-3_1496333iThe Fourth Doctor played by Tom Baker. Jelly baby, anyone? He is my favorite, but let’s be honest, I’ll go on adventures in the TARDIS with any of the Doctors.

And there you have it.

Now I am supposed to tag people to play, but I’m not gonna do it. If this seems like fun? DO IT!!!!! Let me know so I can see! I love TV and movies.

Happy Saturday!

American Horror Story, Buffy the Vampire Slayer, crying, endings, family, Ghost Whisperer, Joan of Arcadia, life struggles, Parenthood the TV show, thoughts

I like TV. So many shows have touched my heart in different ways.

Buffy the Vampire Slayer (Because… awesome)

Supernatural (Hello, Winchester boys)

Firefly (Browncoats unite!)

Farscape (On the other end of the wormhole… anyone know this one?)

American Horror Story (Oh, the creepy, twisted FUN!)

Dr. Who (Whovians ROCK!)

Star Trek (Trekkies! Beam me up!)

Joan of Arcadia (Talking to God… anyone for this one?)

Ghost Whisperer (Ghosts and healing… before it went all wonky)

I love weird, I love scary, I love magic. Give me demons to fight, travelling in spaceships, creepy fun, but real life drama?

parenthood

Why the show Parenthood, Kathy? Why? There’s no terror, not the demon variety. There’s no magic, not the Harry Potter variety. Why?

Well, you might remember a movie in the late 80’s… Parenthood? A stellar cast including Steve Martin? I love that movie. If it’s on I watch it.

So when a TV show appeared with the same name… I tuned in.

And I thought… a real life drama show… Hmmmm…

But I kept watching. And before I knew it I was hooked. I LOVED these people. I cheered for them, cried for them, wanted ALL THE GOOD THINGS FOR THIS FAMILY!

Each week I ended up in tears. Happy tears. Sad tears. Scared out of my mind for these people tears.

And OMG WHEN KRISTINA WAS FIGHTING BREAST CANCER THE EXACT YEAR MY SISTER WAS? AH!

And I don’t want to spoil anything for anyone who hasn’t seen it, but last week’s episode… Amber… naming her baby… *sniff* Well… yeah. *wipes tears from my eyes*

Yes, well… there were extra tears that year. But the love. The heartache. The laughter. The struggle to live and be happy no matter what life brings.

The family always coming together in the end.

Always.

Without family, well, life would be less.

Tonight I will watch the last episode. I will sit on my couch and curl up with the final moments of the Braverman family. So you’ll know where to find me… bring tissues, because well…

Yeah.

And maybe a bit of…

I will miss this show. I will miss yelling at the TV when someone does something stupid. I will miss laughing at the strange messes they find themselves in. I will miss crying hysterically when things go horribly wrong. I will miss not seeing Amber become a mom. I will miss Sarah and Hank dealing with the struggles of being married. I will miss not knowing where life takes Drew. I will miss watching Max find his way in the world. I will miss learning how Zeek lives with a bad heart. I will miss all of them. All the stories.

Most of all I’ll miss the moments of family, the times they come together for each other. In the end that’s what it’s all about.

So long Parenthood. Thanks for the smiles as well as the tears and for reminding us that life has both. And that family is key to surviving.
