Occasionally I do silly, frivolous, ridiculous things. This meme is one of the least outrageous and destructive of them. Feel free to skip it, though.

Also, MOM: Sorry about all the cussing. It was cut and paste, I swear.

Stolen from stepliana, because I've been comparing VMars to an abusive ex for long enough now.

The one who seduced you and fucked you over and broke your heart in a million pieces and laughed about it:
stepliana's answer, "The Black Donnellys" is pretty good. I reserve my answer until after said program premieres tomorrow night. There'll be an extremely ranty post that will link back to this one, don't worry.

The old flame you don't see very often any more but whom you still really enjoy getting together with for a few drinks and maybe a pleasant nostalgic romp in the sheets:
Old sitcoms like "Mad About You," and "The Wonder Years," and "Benson" and "Night Court," and "Maude." There are days when I really miss those shows. ALSO, "The OC." I rewatch those discs most often of all the TV I own. In fact, if the last two discs of Dexter S1 aren't in the mailbox when I got home, I just realized what tonight's plans are.

The mysterious dark gothy one whom you used to sit up with talking until 3 a.m. at weird coffeehouses and with whom you were quite smitten until you realized he really was fucking crazy:
"Damages." I broke this off before it got really crazy. My poor roommate is still caught up in it. I feel like I'm the soldier who's lucky they got killed early in the war and my poor roommate is still stuck miserable and under fire with horrible trenchfoot in the freezing rain. That's how bad this show is.

The one you spent a whole weekend in bed with and who drank up all your liquor, and whom you'd still really like to fuck again although you're relieved he doesn't actually live in town:
"24." I watched all of S1 in three days. Three days that I also worked 10 hour shifts. I could do nothing else until they were done. It was kinda bad. I haven't watched a single episode since. They're like crack.

The steady:
"Sports Night." Now and forever.

The alluring stranger whom you've flirted with at parties but have never gotten really serious with:
"The Closer." I watched a few of this season's episodes with my roommate, but I'm going to have to netflix it from the beginning to properly fall in love with this show. And the TV queue is already close to 500. So we'll see when that happens.

The one you hang out with and have vague fantasies about maybe having a thing with but ultimately you're just good buddies 'cause the friendship is there but the chemistry ain't:
"House." I just can't get that excited about a procedural. Also, I don't like the deep gravelly voice Hugh Laurie uses in it, and I have issues with non-funny Hugh Laurie. As in it confuses the hell out of me.

The one your friends keep introducing you to and who seems like a hell of a cool guy except it's never really gone anywhere:
"Heroes." Y'all just won't shut up about it. And yes, one of you finally forced loaned me S1. So I will watch it and see.

The one who's slept with all your friends, and you keep looking at him and thinking, "Him? How the hell did he land all these cool babes?":
"Lost." I hated the first four episodes. I've been told this means I have no soul, but really, it means I have more time Wednesday nights. Whatev.

The one your friend has fallen for like a ton of bricks and whom she keeps babbling to you about on the phone for hours, and you'd be happy for her except you just know it's going to end badly:
Hmm. "Supernatural." Based on how Buffy, VMars, Smallville (ongoing,) and many others limped painfully into that great night, I am worried about y'all. I see nothing but insane love and enthusiasm on my flist, and I worry that when it turns, it's gonna turn bad in a big way.

The ones you repeatedly cheat on your steady with:
Friday Night Lights, Pushing Daisies, The Office, Six Feet Under, Coupling, Wonderfalls.
