Gone But Not Forgotten: Dark Angel



It has been a while since I did one of these, but as I have spent that time doing something that I guess could be considered research - by introducing my mum to all of my favourite TV shows – I think I can be forgiven. Since I moved back home to the merry old land of Aus from the UK I have an abundance of free time – mainly because I am trying to find new and exciting ways to procrastinating but also I have very little money. It kind of works out for me really because, as much as I enjoy a bit of a party (Party V is in the house tonight) I have to admit that sometimes I just prefer a night in front of the TV.

My love affair with TV is not often understood by those outside the fandom, especially my family so it meant a lot to me that my mum was making the effort to understand my world. But personal family soap opera aside, I really just like introducing people to the worlds and characters that I love. All I want for Christmas is more people to watch TV with. As I had already converted my mother to the Supernatural religion, one of the first programs I decided to inflict on my mother was the short-lived Sci-Fi Dark Angel and it wasn't just because of my newly inflamed passion for Jensen Ackles I swear.

“Lives ruined, bloodshed”: Top 10 Epic Romances on the Small Screen - Part 1



I am not a romantic person, if any of thing 'romantic' happened to me I would run from the room screaming 'fire' and the whole till death do us part thing actually has me breaking out in hives but I love watching it play out on television. I can't help it, when I see two people in love on the screen in front of me I get all giggly and my heart starts to flutter (something that often confuses the people I am dating... “you seemed to like it when they did it on TV”). Why am I telling you this incredibly pointless personal story – it's simple I needed a lead in for this list and I am totally narcissist so I just like talking about myself. So you know – reasons, I like TV romance so I am going to inflict my love on you, my lonely reader.
