[livejournal.com profile] telesilla gives the rules of the meme like this:

I will, in fact, tell you what your favorite shows are about, based solely on what I have gathered from my flist. My contribution to the meme is to do them all in run on sentances. Also, I'm being snarky, but don't take it personally, pliz. Tell me if I left your fandom out, but remember it must be a fandom I've never followed.

My contribution is that I took a list of fandoms that [livejournal.com profile] viciouswishes posted as possibly holiday fic fandoms and wrote for each one that I never followed. And then I wrote Andromeda too.

Andromeda: Hercules in space, more or less making the same faces. People around him change color, or sometimes show up in three places at once, like the woman who married Michael Shanks. There was a really attractive man named Tyr, but he had to be really, really angry and so went away. There was also Rhade, and when Rhade was good he was good, but when he was scruffy, he was better. Yum. There was a blonde too, who was pretty cool, and the kid from Buffy, who kept plugging things into his neck for some reason.

Buffy the Vampire Slayer. (for [livejournal.com profile] lyrstzha) You may recognize Buffy from a movie on a similar topic, but this Buffy has much bigger eyes and stock in Maybelline. She surrounds herself with fearless woobies and for some reason intermittently doesn’t get along with Cordelia and Faith, which is funny, because I think Cordelia and Faith are hilarious. Sometimes she's an only child and sometimes she has a sister. Also Angel does tai chi.

Angel the Series. This was the guy who got his own show because he did tai chi, perfectly oiled, for hours, all while recuperating from inexplicably returning from hell, just because he thought Buffy might show up. And she did, and that’s why he got his own show. He takes his shirt off a lot and has issues with his inner demons. Also Cordelia is there, and someone named Gunn, which seems odd for a show that requires wooden stakes through the heart to kill the bad guys, but maybe Joss was being witty.

Battlestar Gallactica: This is the story of Starbuck, a very cool chick who smokes cigars, gets in bar fights, flies a ship like she’s making love to her and grows her hair a little longer every year. Because apparently, after the apocalypse, there are no scissors. Also there is no smiling.

The Sentinel. The story of a very sensitive cop and the academic who loved him (and refused to cut his hair.) I think they moved in together and the producers were worried that they’d lose that magic chemistry if they let them actually snog or something and so tried very hard never to mention it again, but the slash fans knew, yes they did.

due South. This was the story of a Mountie and the Rays who loved him. I think Ray might have actually cloned himself so there might be two Rays to love the Mountie, which was convenient because I think they had to tag team there when one of them just got exhausted and had to call in a sub. Also, the Mountie has a deaf dog. I have no idea what that has to do with the high rate of Ray turnovers, though.

Grey's Anatomy. This is a show that should be about Sandra Oh, who is quite awesome, but keeps getting interrupted by this cast of other people who I think are doctors but I’m confused because they seem to be all sleeping together and I can’t figure out why they are living and working and sleeping together because some of them are really whiney.

Heroes. There’s a guy named Hiro in this who draws comic books about himself. There are also some blonde women who are kind of annoying, and other people. They all have superpowers they stole from the X-men, I think, but as far as I know they don’t actually try to make the world safe for democracy, but I could be wrong.

House. This is the one where the too-snarky-to-be-loved doctor is loved by the floppy-haired-and-deceptively-lazy-looking head of another department. Or was that Atlantis? Or, wait. I think they moved in together at some point, and the whole ‘I work for the US military’ thing probably means this wasn’t Atlantis-but-not-scifi. But there was a woman boss who could be written so much cooler. There’s also someone named Foreman who tells it like it is, but he actually is too snarky to be loved, or he’s too black to be loved. Not sure which. He should watch out lest he become an intergalactic junkie.

Star Trek: Deep Space 9. This is the Star Trek that’s like The Next Generation, except the captain isn’t a bald British man, he’s a bald brown skinned man, and when he smiles he’s lights up the room. Strangely, this was not enough to get me to watch the show, due to the strange inability of their ship to actually go anywhere, and the fact that the Worf character was played by Benson. But then Worf showed up, so I don’t know what my problem was.

Star Trek: Voyager: This is the one where the captain was a woman, but they balanced out that little act of bra-burning with a sexy alien who had really invested in the Wonderbra company and didn’t even merit a name beyond a number, as far as I could tell. Although they do get points for picking a really cool number.

If you want to do this meme, you might also consider sending up the fine fine shows of: Alias, Firefly, Harry Potter, Stargate: Atlantis, Stargate SG-1, Farscape and Dr. Who, but those are the ones I actually know.

He was, without a doubt, the scariest Jesus ever...seeing as I saw him in Alias first.
