Dean Winchester is my Favorite Character:
5 Contributing Factors

Dean appreciates the simple things:
Food, The Impala

Doesn't hurt that he's such an adorable eater...

Dean is completely devoted to his family:

I mean, just look at the way he hugs his dad. COME ON!

Dean is hilarious/adorable/a cocky bastard:

Who looks better? Me or Nick Nolte?

Dean stands up for what he believes in:
~~While having eye-sex with an Angel of the Lord~~

I see nothing but pain here.
I see inside you. I see your guilt, your anger, confusion.
In Paradise, all is forgiven. You'll be at peace. Even with Sam.
You can take your peace, and shove it up your lily-white ass.
'Cause I'll take the pain and the guilt.
I'll even take Sam as is.
It's a lot better than being some Stepford bitch in Paradise.
This is simple Cas! No more crap about being a good soldier.
There is a right and there is a wrong here, and you know it!

Dean has a lot of issues, including, but not limited to:
Daddy issues, Self-Esteem issues, Abandonment issues

You're going to Hell, and you won't lift a finger to stop it.
Talk about low self-esteem! Then again, it's not much a life worth saving...
Wake up, Dean. Come on, Wake up.
I mean, after all, you've got nothin' outside of Sam...
You are nothin'.
You're as mindless and obedient as an attack dog.
That's not true.
No? What are the things that you want? What are the things that you dream?
I mean, your car? That's Dad's.
Your favorite leather jacket? Dad's.
You're music? Dad's.
Do you even have an original thought?
No. No, all there is is 'Watch out for Sammy! Look after your little brother, boy!'
You can still hear your dad's voice in your head, can't you? Clear as a bell.
Just shut up.
I mean, think about it. All he ever did was train you, boss you around...
But Sam! Sam he doted on. Sam he loved.
I mean it. I'm gettin' angry.
Dad knew who you really were: a good soldier and nothin' else.
Daddy's blunt little instrument.
Your own father didn't care whether you lived or died,
WHY SHOULD YOU?!

Portia De Rossi

Of course I love her from Arrested Development
But before that I loved her on Ally McBeal, which I unfortantely can't find any good clips of..
She was awesome in Better Off Ted
She's so cute XD
She and Ellen are basically my favorite celeb couple ever to exist.

Kat Dennings

I'm not really sure why I like her so much. I mean, she's in some good movies... But whatever..
Charlie Bartlett is sooooo good.
okay, maybe The House Bunny wasn't good... but it was entertaining..
Nick and Norah was alright too.
Srsly YouTube? This was the best clip from 40 Year Old Virgin I could find.

Leonardo DiCaprio

Let's take a minute to forget how attractive he is, and just appreciate some movies, yes?
More Romeo + Juliet love.
What's Eating Gilbert Grape?
Catch Me If You Can XD
The Departed DON"T WATCH THIS CLIP IF YOU HAVEN'T ALREADY SEEN THE MOVIE!
And my favorite: Gangs of New York
I am really looking forward to seeing Inception.
This amuses me

Robert Downey Jr

More Charlie Bartlett love :)
Just watched Kiss Kiss Bang Bang a couple of weeks ago.
The face he makes @ about 26s...
I love all the interviews he did with Jude Law for Sherlock Holmes
I'd add more (b/c there are so many more reason why I love him), but I am feeling lazy and really want to get back to watching Supernatural.

David Duchovny

MULDER!
And I've got some major love for Californication
And remember when he was the hand model in Zoolander! XD

I had to take Thurs and Fri off from this, b/c I had to work early... And these posts (going through and finding all the right clips) take forever to put together...

Claire Danes

Most of my reasons for loving her are pretty old... But there's quite a few of them.
Like Little Women
And I remember loving My So-Called Life, but the only thing I actually specifically remember from the entire show is this conversation.
Also, Romeo + Juliet (sorry about the text over the clip, but it was the only video of this clip I could find)
I also really like Igby Goes Down
and I remember this Gap ad but I didn't realize she was in it until today..

Darlton

Their podcasts made Lost so much better.. And Lost was already awesome..
I can't wait to get the series DVDs so I can watch with their commentary
I feel like I just posted this video not tool long ago, but I will post it again, b/c it amuses me ;)

Gareth David-Lloyd

John and Gareth
Gareth and Kai (Rhys) - It's kind of hard to hear, but whatever

Daniel Day-Lewis

He's best when yelling. It's just a fact.
I'VE ABANDONED MY BOY!
I DRINK YOUR MILKSHAKE!
Whoopsy Daisy!
BECAUSE IT IS MY NAME!
I also recommend The Ballad Of Jack And Rose,
in which his daughter is totally inappropriately in love with him.
I, however, do not recommend Last Of The Mohicans... That movie sucked.

Felicia Day

You don't watch The Guild? What's wrong with you?!
It's so awesome, there's even a music video :)
Plus, you know, Dr. Horrible.

Jennifer Carpenter

I love Deb and her horrible language.
I don't like horror movies, but I loved Quarantine.

George Clooney

Loved him since ER.
One of my favorite things about him? He had a pet pig :)
And this is just random..

James Corden

Just so you know, whenever British comedians show up on this list you're just going to be getting clips from
The Big Fat Quiz,
Never Mind The Buzzcocks,
and other various quiz/panel shows.. (I just love when he laughs)
And oh hey! James was in a great episode of DW this season :D

Angel Coulby

Love Gwen!
Ok, I really couldn't find any other clips that don't involve Bradley James stealing the show...

John Francis Daley

Freaks & Geeks! Sam was so adorable :)
And I love Waiting...
And if I still watched Bones, I'm pretty sure it would be for him.

This has been a post.

Russell Brand

I originally fell in love with him when he was Noel's team mate on Big Fat Quiz.
I also enjoyed him a lot in Forgetting Sarah Marshall.
And stand-up!

Alison Brie

Community is The. Best.
She has good taste in the fellas.
Did I mention that Community is the best??
I don't even know what this is from, but Alison's faint is hilarious.
You don't sacrifice a chicken before every show?

James Callis

I think you all know that I am in love with Gaius frakking Baltar.
Talking about auditioning for BSG.
Oh yes.
In Bear's mockumentary about BSG's music..
I love him when Gaius is all sciency.

Paul Campbell

BILLEH!!!
Apart from being way too lovable on BSG,
he was in a pilot that never got picked up: Nobody's Watching
And I know I just posted this video, but Paul + Lost = epic awesome

Lizzy Caplan

Party Down!
And apparently I was the only person who watched Related..
But let's face it... We all love her for Mean Girls.

The Pandorica Opens

2010-06-22T00:01:23Z

¤ My as-I-watch-it notes for DW - The Pandorica Opens

Is The Doctor in the Pandorica? B/C I feel like that is where this episode is going...?

Oh Daleks. What a surprise. So, I am sick of Daleks. Does that make me a bad DW fan??

Have I mentioned how much I love Matt Smith as The Doctor? Well I do. A lot. He's fantastic.

Does it ever bother you, Amy, that your life doesn't make any sense?

LOOK AT ME I'M A TARGET!

Thumbs up was so cute XD

That cyberman head is like Ron's accio brain, RIGHT?

ROOOOOOOOOOOOOOOORY SAVING AMY!!!!!!!!!! OMG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I'm not exactly one to miss the obvious (ignoring Rory)
XDDDDD

LOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOOLOLOLOLOLOOL @ The Doctor and Rory

I died and turned into a Roman. It's very distracting.

OMG IS ROMAN!RORY NOT REAL??!?!??!?!? THIS IS TERRRRRRIBLE!!!!!!!!!!!!!

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO ;_; (this was my reaction to like the entire last 10 minutes...)

Will Arnett
(& I love Amy too)

Fun Fact: My brother has the biggest mancrush on Will. I don't blame him.
B/C Arrested Development is awesome.
B/C his voice is awesome.

Richard Ayoade

B/C Moss is AWESOME. He can lend you the internet.

Jamie Bamber

I know a lot of BSG fans are not huge Lee fans... But I don't care. I ♥ Leemo. I really do.
This is cute... Mostly for Katee's reactions TBH
Jamie turning into fat!Lee :)
LOL what is this? and Why haven't I seen it??

Jay Baruchel

I liked him in Undeclared... but he grows on me more and more every time I see him in something.
I like guys who have cats.. Is that weird?

Cate Blanchett

Lord of the Rings, anyone? Life Aquatic?
She's just so lovely.

I've decided I want to randomly spam you all with celebrities that I love... So I chose 100 awesome people, and I'm giving you 5 per day. (they're in alphabetical order b/c the thought of ranking them made me want to die)
I love them all for different reasons; some b/c they have awesome personalities, some b/c I really appreciate their talent, and some just b/c they're hot.

Jensen Ackles

Since I just started watching Supernatural, Jensen is the newest person on the list. And he's on the list b/c

I adore Dean Winchester.
In the few interviews etc. I've watched of him, he is absolutely adorable.
Have you seen his wedding pictures??? the 1st one is my favorite
LOOK AT HIS EYES!!! LOOK AT HIS MOUTH!!! LOOK AT HIS FRECKLES!!!!

This doesn't hurt either

Casey Affleck

Clearly the more talented of the two Afflecks, Casey is super adorable and I generally approve of his movie-making choices.
Awkward...

Dianna Agron

Even though I HATE Glee, I can't help but love some of the cast. A lot. It doesn't hurt that Dianna's gorgeous or anything though.
She's so cute

Simon Amstell

What a dork! I miss him on Nevermind The Buzzcocks SO MUCH!!!
XDDDD... With special appearances by a couple people who'll be on this list later. Cookies if you can guess who ;)

Richard Armitage

I love him when he plays the bad guy. I love him when he plays the good guy. And at some point he became my mental image of Mr. Darcy... and GUH HIS VOICE
Also, he should be shirtless more.

B/C I have no real life to update about, here are a couple memes...

2010-06-16T20:46:44Z

¤ Meme the First!

Respond to this post with "Interests, please" and I'll pick six of your LJ interests for you to explain in a new post.

thistwilight picked some for me!
benry gale linus, destiny = fickle bitch, escalator speeches, handsome hobos, patchy the piñata, schmoopy looks

benry gale linus
LOST! WELL HELLO! I AM HENRY GALE FROM MINNESOTA!! I love that fandom still calls Ben "Benry" and I am surprised that no one else has this particular interest.

destiny = fickle bitch
LOST! MOAR BEN (won't embed, sorry). This line. Michael Emerson is so right when he says that he's in a comedy while the rest of the cast is in a drama.

escalator speeches
Whenever me and Ameli-oh go to a mall (or any other place that happens to have an escalator) we reenact Mallrats:

handsome hobos
Community! After he's found to be living out of his car, Annie calls Jeff a handsome hobo. And I love it:

patchy the piñata
more LOST!!! I love Patchy. I do I do. This particular phrase comes from the season 3 DVD extras

schmoopy looks
more Community! Schmoopy looks are these:

And I love them (b/c they are always directed at Annie!)

¤ Meme the Second!

Ask me a question about:
-me & my life
-my fandomness
OR
Give me a sentence to say

AND I WILL MAKE A VOICE POST.

Saddest Character Death.

Rory
Doctor Who 509 - Cold Blood

I was gonna pick Charlie on Lost, but I already did that episode, plus, this is really sad.

He gets shot saving The Doctor, who he's basically been competing with all season.
He gets sucked into the time-crack-thing!

Day 29:

Current TV Show Obsession.

Community

See how much I love this show? I USED 72 CAPS!! o.O

This show started off okay. Really I was just watching for Joel McHale. It was funny, but the Jeff/Britta dynamic was pretty annoying.. B/C Britta was really annoying. But about 1/3 of the way through the season, I started to love her. And then there was Debate 109.. And Jeff/Annie. Which is basically the best thing ever to happen to television. As the season went on it just kept getting better and better. Sure, some plot-lines were weak or even annoying, but that's going to happen in any show. And usually something else in the episode would make up for it *coughjoelsarmscough*.

Have some awesome Abed!

Best Quote.

This Land
Firefly 1.01 Serenity Part I

Best intro to a character ever.

Yes. Yes. This is a fertile land and we will thrive.
We will rule over all this land, and we will call it... This Land.
I think we should call it your grave!
Aahhh!! Curse your sudden but inevitable betrayal!
Rahhahah! Mine is an evil laugh!
Now DIE! Rrragh!

Most Annoying Character.
.

Marissa Cooper
The O.C.

Before season 6 of Lost, this definitely would've gone to Jack Shepphard. But somehow, that bastard grew on me, so he is no longer the most annoying... Just really annoying. Kate was also a contender.
But of all the TV shows I have ever watched and all the characters I have ever hated... MARISSA COOPER TAKES THE FUCKING CAKE. I was never happier to see a character die.

Yeah, I know you've got family drama, but who doesn't?? Boo fucking hoo. That is no excuse to binge drink and shoplift and drag your COMPLETELY AWESOME boyfriend down with you!! ARGH!!!
She was so bad for Ryan, I wanted to punch her in the throat every time she was on screen.

Ugh. Barf.

Favorite Series Finale.
.

Lost

This may be because it just happened, but may be not. I can't remember ever being so satisfied by a series finale. And to be honest, I often don't make it all the way to a series' finale, b/c a lot of shows just go on much longer than they really should...
(island only spam b/c it has prettier colors! sorry Juliet)

I went into this expecting to be disappointed... B/C that is what usually happens for me with series finales.. But this was just SO GOOD.
It made me cry (mostly happy tears)...
I actually at one point didn't want Jack to die... I KNOW!
ALL THE CALLBACKS TO PREVIOUS EPISODES (I am such a sucker for that shit)
JULIEEEEEEEET!!!!!
SHANNOOOOOON!!!!!
Ben and Hurley as Island Protectors! That is a spin-off I really want to see!
Miles and Richard are totally going to be BFFs off the island... ALSO A SPIN-OFF I REALLY WANT TO SEE.
Ben had such a fitting and good ending, which was very important for me, since he is one of my all-time favorites.

Miles & Richard are my new lost OTP btw:

This is just ridiculously cute.. Even though Jack is in it (I know, WHAT?)

Epic Battle!!

GOD I AM GOING TO MISS THIS SHOW AND FANDOM SO FUCKING MUCH!!!! ;_;

Favorite Ship.
.

Gaius/Six
Battlestar Galactica

I spent way too long making this, but every shot of James and Tricia together is so gorgeous that I couldn't choose just a few to use :\

At first, they are both sort of the villains of the story, but they quickly became two of my favorite characters on BSG. Their love for each other is what ends up making both of them sympathetic characters.

Runner-up: Desmond/Penny (Lost)
