30 Days of TV Shows: Day 30

Day 30 - Saddest character death:

Joyce Summers – ‘The Body’ Buffy the Vampire Slayer.

She was the first, actually, the only (I think) character to die a natural death. All the characters reactions were so real & heartbreaking. Joyce dying was totally unexpected.



Jo & Ellen Harvelle – ‘Abandon All Hope…’ Supernatural.

Considering everybody has died on Supernatural (literally) Jo & Ellen’s deaths were shocking, poignant & gave Jo’s character real purpose. The fact that Ellen sacrificed herself to save Sam & Dean so they could continue their mission to return the Devil to Hell & to help Jo finish the task she needed to do but couldn’t because she was dying was just gut wrenching! Ellen, also, obviously made the choice because she knew she couldn’t go on in a world where her daughter wasn’t with her. It shows a lot about their bond & the progression of the mending of their relationship.

The fact that Jo & Ellen died saving the Winchester boys, also, shows a lot of forgiveness & acceptance of their families’ pasts together. Honestly, thinking of this last part of the episode gets me a little bit choked up still.

30 Days of TV Shows: Day 29

Day 29 - Current TV show obsession:

Supernatural… Duh! & Ghost Adventures

 
 

30 Days of TV Shows: Day 28

Day 28 - First TV show obsession:

Star Trek: The Next Generation or Sea Quest DSV. I will deny this if ever brought up but…

Sea Quest DSV was the first (AND ONLY) time I wrote fanfic. I know, I know…I was way cool to be writing fanfic before fanfic was the cool ‘in’ thing to do.

 
 

30 Days of TV Shows: Day 27

Day 27 - Best pilot episode:

Really any that grab you & get your attention right from the get go. Where you care about the characters & plots and want to know more by the end of the first hour.

Fringe…I mean what a mess of WTF’s & mass confusion, I had no idea what was going on but I really couldn’t wait to find out.

Burn Notice

Chuck

30 Days of TV Shows: Day 26

Day 26 - OMG WTF? Season finale:

For a while it seem like every season finale out there was an OMG WTF?! It was like everyone was competing for the biggest & baddest “Yes that just happened & will screw everything up next season” moment.

Case in point… The last two season finale’s of Private Practice. Oh, and last season’s finale of Gray’s Anatomy. Most stressful hour (or two) of my life!...and there have been some pretty damn stressful hours thanks to stupid TV season finale cliffhangers!

I’m not going to mention the last 5 season finale’s of Supernatural. Especially, not season 4 when Dean couldn’t find way way out of his CrossRoads Demon deal, died by being shredded by the unseen Hell Hounds & went to Hell to be tortured. Nope, not going to do it because I’m sure by now everyone is sick of hearing about my totally justifiable obsession with Supernatural.

 

30 Days of TV Shows: Day 25

Merry Christmas!!

Day 25 - A show you plan on watching (old or new):

Arrested Development. I watched the first season on Hulu & need to get busy on the 2nd.

 
 
 

30 Days of TV Shows: Day 24

Day 24 - Best quote:

First and formost…Merry Christmas Eve!

Okay, back to the task at hand… How do you pick a best quote? TV is littered with them!! I can think of at least 10 from Firefly, Supernatural, Buffy…

Supernatural quotes:

“Driver picks the music; shotgun shuts his cakehole!” - Dean

"Hey, see if they've got any pie. Bring me some pie. I love me some pie." -Dean

“I shot the sheriff” - Henriksen

“But you didn't shoot the deputy." - Dean

"On Thursdays, we're teddy bear doctors." Dean

"I found a liquor store. And I drank it." Castiel

“You think you're funny?” - Henricksen

“I think I'm adorable.” - Dean

“You mean 'protection against a demon' salt or 'oops I spilt the popcorn' salt?” Dean

“Umm, these are amazing. It's like deep fried crack. Try some.” – Ruby (about french fries)

“Who do I have to kill to get some french fries around here?” – Ruby (after possessing a coma patient who just was just pronounced dead)

“You're not gonna bust out the misty goodbye speech, okay? I mean, if this is my last day on Earth, I do not want it to be socially awkward.” - Dean


Firefly quotes:

“I aim to misbehave.” Mal

“Well, look at this. Appears we got here just in the nick of time! What does that make us?” - Mal

“Big Damn Heroes, Sir!” - Zoe

“My god — you’re like a trained ape. Without the training.” - Simon

“Bored now.” - Vampire Willow

“I laugh in the face of danger. Then I hide until it goes away.” – Xander

“Love makes you do the wacky.” – Willow

"Can you vague that up for me?" - Buffy

 

30 Days of TV Shows: Day 23

Day 23 - Most annoying character:

Lana – Smallville. She’s the reason I stopped watching it. I started back up last season but then she was on it for a while & I stopped again. She’s the only thing I ever hated about that show.

 

30 Days of TV Shows: Day 22

Day 22 - Favorite series finale:

Chosen - Buffy the Vampire Slayer. It tied (most) things up & left enough open so to give fans a happy ending. At least, as happy as a Joss Whedon story can get.

 

30 Days of TV Shows: Day 21

Day 21 - Favorite ship:

Serenity – Firefly It had as much personality as the crew did.

Last Christmas

Last Christmas by Wham! was released 26 years ago and in all that time I've somehow never seen this video until today.   

How I've managed to do that is beyond me...I mean, this is one of my favorite Christmas songs.  Plus, I loved me some Wham! back in the day.  Also, not going to lie...I still love me some Wham!  I still secretely break out into the "Wake Me Up Before You Go-Go" dance whenever I hear the song.

P.S. Maybe if I had seen this video earlier I may not have harbored such a mad cruch on George Michael for as long as I did. The evidence between Wake Me Up's video and this one it is blatenly obvious I was not the cup of tea George was into.

Lust

30 Days of TV Shows: Day 20

Day 20 - Favorite kiss:

Seth Cohen & Summer Roberts Spiderman kiss– ‘The Rainey Day Women’ The O.C. Why, I don’t know but it was the first and only one that came to mind.

 
 

30 Days of TV Shows: Day 19

Day 19 - Best TV show cast:

Buffy the Vampire Slayer – Their chemistry was awesome!

Supernatural – The tallent on that show is amazing! The main 2 actors, the supporting cast & the guest actors are superb!

Firefly – Nathan Fillion & Adam Baldwin…nuff’ said but then you have Summer Glau, who killed it as River and everyone else who rocked their character on that show! Joss Whedon knows his actors!

 
 
 
 
 
 

30 Days of TV Shows: Day 18

Day 18 - Favorite title sequence:

Buffy the Vampire Slayer. It pumps you up every time. Nurf Herder rocks it!




Supernatural. It’s short & sweet. They basically give you the “Then” & “Now” and the season’s graphics behind the name:

S1: Was just the title with blue letters

S2: The title showed with bursting flames & the A was a pentagram (Flames were for the yellow-eyed demon & the way Mary Winchester & Jessica were killed)

S3: The “Key of Solomon” symbol was shown before the title which had mystical/lighting looking clouds (The Key of Solomon is use as a devil’s trap, used often to trap demons)

S4: Was a bunch of black wings flapping followed by the sound of someone screaming & the title (The black wings represented the Angels, who’s wings were never actually shown but would show as massive black shadows when needed)

S5: Supernatural shows with a drop of blood dispersing in the background with sounds of a heart beat. (Guessing it represents Sam drinking demon blood & all the blood shed during the season because there was a LOT)

S6: A pane of glass shatters, revealing the title. (Haven’t figured out why yet but I’m guessing it has to do with all the illusions going on & Sam’s “soul”)

30 Days of TV Shows: Day 17

Day 17 - Favorite mini-series:

I can’t think of a mini-series I’ve watched. Do they even do those anymore??

 
 
 
 
 
 

30 Days of TV Shows: Day 16

Day 16 - Your guilty pleasure show:

Any of the Kardashian shows.

One Tree Hill *hangs head*

Hell Cats

30 Days of TV Shows: Day 15

Day 15 - Favorite female character:

I’ve been considering this question since I read over this list after I found it. I still haven’t come up with an answer. If given a show I could tell you my favorite female on the show but to just pick one I can’t seem to do it. Maybe it shows a bit of the female psyche. Maybe I just haven’t been “swept off my feet” by one particular female character. Really, I don’t know and if I haven’t figured it out by now it’s not likely I will.

 
 

30 Days of TV Shows: Day 14

Day 14 - Favorite male character:

Dean Winchester – Supernatural

He’s such a bad-ass. Hard on the outside and all soft & gooey in the inside. Crude, sarcastic, wears beat up leather jackets & drives a hot old car (’67 Chevy Impala)…what’s not to love??

30 Days of TV Shows: Day 13

Day 13 - Favorite childhood show:

Knight Rider & Dukes of Hazzard. They were so great back then but a bit hard to watch now. They just aren’t as cool now-a-days.

30 Days of TV Shows: Day 12

Day 12 - An episode you've watched more than 5 times:

Probably just about every episode of Buffy the Vampire Slayer.

30 Days of TV Shows: Day 11

Day 11 - A show that disappointed you:

Third Watch. It started out great for the first couple of seasons and then it got all soap operaery and was just horrible. They ruined some great characters along the way.

30 Days of TV Shows: Day 10

Day 10 - A show you thought you wouldn’t like but ended up loving:

True Blood - a friend was watching it & explained it but apparently didn’t explain it very well. It sounded horrendously horrible, I couldn’t figure out why she’d even watch it. It sounded like nothing she’d ever watch but once I actually watched an episode I was hooked.

Keeping Up with the Kardashians - for obvious reasons but I love watching that crazy family.

Wasn't good, wasn't bad, I was naughty and nice...

Anyone who knows me knows I'm sort of a Christmas Scrooge, at least when it comes to the decorations & music.  Oh, the horror of Christmas music...especially, when it's forced on you while you're stuck in mass lines with people who have anything but holiday cheer. 

I gave up on Christmas decorations after moving into my first apartment & having to re-put up my 12 inch Christmas tree numerous times a day due to my far too curious cats.  They found that the fake tree was a tasty treat & had nice new shiny toys for them to play with & break.

I'm down with the gift giving and the forced family time (which really isn't all that forced when you actually love your family) but the month long Christmas music makes me want to go out and throw rocks instead of snowballs.  Not that there is any snow here in HotasHELL, AZ but you get my drift.  My adversion of Christmas music may trace back to an old co-worker who idolized Beth & Bill (KEZ99.9) & had them on 24\7 which meant that every Monday-Friday 8 AM-5 PM  there was nonstop Christmas music from the day after Thanksgivng until New Years.  After 8 or so years that is far too much Christmas music for this girl to take. 

There are a few Christmas songs I like, you know the old non-traditional classic's like "Santa Baby" & "I Want A Hippopotamus For Christmas".  I could probably get behind Christmas music more if there were more songs like this...

"All I Want for Christmas Is Us" - Tristan Prettyman ft./ Jason Mraz

30 Days of TV Shows: Day 9

Day 09 - Best scene ever:

When Dean comes back from the dead & goes to Bobby’s. ‘Lazarus Rising’ Supernatural
I can’t embed (stupid blocks) but here’s the link: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7ftfG5fQMXw

When Dean freaks out & beats the Impala, showing his emotions about his father’s death for the first time. ‘Everybody Loves a Clown’ – Supernatural
Here’s the link: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r57Phmp-5Tc

If this doesn't feel like Christmas then I don't know what does...

Looks like Christmas has come a bit early this year...

"2010 is coming to a close, and Toad the Wet Sprocket is preparing for a busy 2011. We'll be touring throughout the year, and are excited to be switching up the set and adding some new surprises. 

Since we broke up in 1997, we haven't made much in the way of long term plans. That's changing this year - we're a band again.

Click here to download "It Doesn't Feel Like Christmas". The song was penned by our friend Sam Phillips, and we hope you enjoy it!..... Thanks" - Toad/Glen Phillips

30 Days of TV Shows: Day 8

Day 08 - A show everyone should watch:

Cougar Town. It’s hilarious!! Plus, drinking wine has never looked so fun!

I never thought Courtney Cox could out kook or make anyone more neurotic than Monica from Friends but I think she may have with Jules on Cougar Town.

30 Days of TV Shows: Day 7

Day 07 - Least favorite episode of your favorite TV show:

"Sin City" or “The Magnificent Seven" - Supernatural

I'm not sure why but these episodes are the hardest ones to sit through.  They weren't necessarily bad but they weren't as great as the other episodes in season 3, or any othere season. 

There may be a few episodes that'll trump these two this season, season 6, but until I review them again I won't know.

30 Days of TV Shows: Day 6

Day 06 - Favorite episode of your favorite TV show:


"Hush" – Buffy the Vampire Slayer:





No episode has freaked me out so badly. I had nightmares after. The quietness throughout almost the whole episode was sooo eerie. The Gentlemen were way way creepy! Their silence only made them even more creepifying. It was, also, pretty ground breaking...only about 17 minutes of dialogue is presented in the entire 44 minutes of "Hush". I don't think anyone but Joss Whedon would be crazy enough to try something like that, especially when dialogue is a major story mover & what is normal is for TV shows, especailly one that was an "hour" long.











"In the Beginning" - Supernatural:

It was heartwarming, funny, and completely heartbreaking.  It gave a lot of background & mythology on the series.  Jensen Ackles knocked it out of the park during this episode.  Of course, he knocks it out of the park in every episode but he was extra shiny on this one.

Summary:

"Castiel sends Dean back in time to 1973 where he encounters younger versions of his parents and for the first time meets his grandfather Samuel Campbell who holds a secret that sheds a light on the Winchester Family's connection to the hunter community."

"After Hours" – Third Watch (not my favorite show but this episode has always stuck with me):


I’m not even sure if I can explain the episode. Third Watch was a reality based show and this episode had a spiritual theme to it. It was really powerful. For a while after watching it I’d get goose bumps every time I thought of it or talked to someone about it.


Summary :
“The deaths of four teenagers in a fiery car crash profoundly affects the third watch, who were forced to stand by helplessly, unable to save the victims. They congregate at the end of the shift to dispel their sadness and anger at the horrific images of the crash. Faith, Sully and Doc spend time sitting quietly in a cafe; Ty, Bobby, Carlos and Alex go to a bar; and Kim, Bosco and Jimmy go bowling. As evening turns into day, Faith's group meets up with a young woman, Ty's group meets up with a young man, and Kim's group meets up with a young couple in love. At dawn, everyone ends up at the a beach and they build a bonfire. As the flames flicker, we see a flashback to the moments immediately preceding the car crash and discover that the young people whom they met during the course of the evening are the spirits of the teenagers who died in the crash, who were sent back down to earth to tell them that the crash could not have been prevented, and they are not to blame for being unable to save them.” 


(For whatever reason this part won't convert to the same font as the rest...annoying!  Stupid glitch!!)

30 Days of TV Shows: Day 5

Day 05 - A show you hate:

Firefly - I almost didn't add Firefly because it didn't even last a season & one can only get the whole story by the DVD & Serenity movie but it is a TV show none-the-less so I had to add it. 

30 Days of TV Shows: Day 3

Day 03 - Your favorite new show (aired this TV season):

30 Days of Me: Day 30

Day 30- Your favorite song:

It’s impossible to pick one, currently I have a few…

"Swim" – Jack’s Mannequin

You've gotta swim 

Swim for your life
Swim for the music
That saves you
When you're not so sure you'll survive
You gotta swim
And swim when it hurts
The whole world is watching
You haven't come this far
To fall off the earth
The currents will pull you
Away from your love
Just keep your head above

I found a tidal wave
Begging to tear down the dawn
Memories like bullets
They fired at me from a gun
A crack in the armor
I swim to brighter days
Despite the absence of sun
Choking on salt water
I'm not giving in
I swim

You gotta swim
Through nights that won't end
Swim for your families
Your lovers your sisters
And brothers and friends
Yeah you've gotta swim
Through wars without cause
Swim for the lost politicians
Who don't see their greed as a flaw

The currents will pull us
Away from our love
Just keep your head above

I found a tidal wave
Begging to tear down the dawn
Memories like bullets
They fired at me from a gun
Cracking me open now
I swim for brighter days
Despite the absence of sun
Choking on salt water
I'm not giving in
Well I'm not giving in
I swim

You gotta swim
Swim in the dark
There's no shame in drifting
Feel the tide shifting and wait for the spark
Yeah you've gotta swim
Don't let yourself sink
Just find the horizon
I promise you it's not as far as you think
The currents will drag us away from our love
Just keep your head above
Just keep your head above
Swim
Just keep your head above
Swim, swim
Just keep your head above
Swim

"Littlething" – Jimmy Eat World

It's how I've often felt

When I find myself on nights like these,

Like Christmas Eve

From the empty office window

To the street outside

It's everything not to call

And find out why

On the cab ride you said nothing

Just hair all in your face

I was scared to name it

And nothing changed

So, I walked until I just couldn't

Too late I understood

It was always half invented

But the other half was good

Just a little thing

Buried in the other things

Burning away, from inside

Could you be with me tonight?

There's a quiet dream

I'm not supposed to think

I know I shouldn't

Eating away at my mind

Could you be with me tonight?



"Electable (Give It Up)" - Jimmy Eat World

I came up like everyone, they taught us all the same

I said what they told me to say, and then from that they grade.
Give up repeating the facts, fact could be arranged
Here I am, I'll take my chance
Now play the record straight.

Now give it up!
Oh oh oh...
Give it up!
Oh oh oh...

Talking points from talking heads with automated smiles
There's no higher ground to stand than bottom of the pile.
Give up acting unaware, you can't ignore the crime
The enemy is you as well, the enemy is I

Give it up!
Oh oh oh...
Give it up!
Oh oh oh...
Give it up!
Oh oh oh...
Give it up!
Oh oh oh...

Not in my name, you don't speak for me
I am my voice, and I want to scream
You want my air, you want my life
I act as one, but I'm not alone.

Oh oh oh...
Give it up!
Oh oh oh...
Give it up!
Oh oh oh...
Give it up!
Oh oh oh...
Give it up!
Oh oh oh...
Give it up!
Oh oh oh...

 
 

Patty Cake!

I imagine this will be Cyrus & Remington in a few months...

Day 29- In this past month, what have you learned:

I’ve learned that I can post an entry 30 days in a row, even if I had to get creative to figure it out. Other than that I haven’t learned much, it’s not like there were some hard hitting questions or anything.

 
 
 

30 Days of Me: Day 28

Day 28- A picture of you from last year and now, how have you changed since then?:

30 Days of Me: Day 24

Day 24 - A letter to your parents:  Hum, It would have to go something like this…

Dear Parents,

Thank you for getting drunk & having sex 33 years ago. I very much appreciate it.

Cheers,

Kerri

Honestly, that’s all I’ve got. Writing a letter to my parents would be pointless. They aren’t around to read it and I don’t see the point of putting something like that out there for them in cyberspace.

I wrote a letter to my mom before she died, that’s good enough for me; even if she never got to read it. It’s been 16 years and there’s no point in dredging everything up. Besides, I’ve come to terms with a lot of things since then. If she’s around somewhere where she can know what’s in my heart then there really is no reason to write a letter anyway.

Writing a letter to a man I never met or knew much about would be utterly pointless. I barely gave him thought throughout my life and there’s no reason to give even a moment to someone who’s never meant anything to me, especially if it’s just so I could properly respond to today’s entry request.

Day 20- Someone you see yourself marrying or being with in the future:


Call me crazy but I sort of see myself being with him in the future.

He drives me crazy most of the time but I wouldn’t have it any other way. Even if that means there will be no less than 5 fishing polls & 2 tackle boxes lying around at all times.

Ker – You know because Kerri is such a long name to have to say fully all the time.

KerBear - Not really sure how it came about exactly but part of my family calls me it & so does Will’s family. It seems to be a common nickname.

Sis – My sisters call me Sis from time to time…just like I call them it. The reason is obvious…it’s a sister and/or sibling thing.

Dreams…to be a trophy wife so I can spend my day lunching, shopping & gossiping with the equally rich & unemployed.

Goals…to get over plans being a dirty word and to find a dream worth writing about so I can put the off the cuff trophy wife answer to bed for good.


Most of the time I find I’d like to get married, have a baby or two, and be a harried stay at home mom who dreams of writing the next great American romance novel. Shhhh!, but don’t tell anyone… it’d kill my street cred.

30 Days of Me: Day 17

Day 17- Someone you would want to switch lives with for one day and why:

I hate questions like this. I don’t sit around thinking about things like this. I have no idea who’d I’d want to switch lives with for a day, so I have no answer. It’s a bit lame but it’s all I’ve got right now.

30 Days of Me: Day 13

Day 13- A letter to someone who has hurt you recently:

I have no one to write to. If someone has hurt me and I felt the need to write them I’ve written them already and it’s not something I’m willing to share publicly. Sharing something like that so openly doesn’t seem right.

Unless you’re going to write to someone anonymously and can’t send a letter for whatever reason this may be a good outlet for any pain you have but I still don’t think doing it so publicly would be of any greater value to making you feel any better than if you did so privately.  <---That is the biggest run on sentence ever but I’m too lazy to fix it.

30 Days of Me: Day 12

Day 12- How you found out about blogger and why you have one:

You know, I don’t remember how I found out about Blogger but I’ve had my account since 2007. The posts didn’t start until 2009, if I posted before that I’ve erased them & don’t remember any of it. The main reason for the break is because of certain circumstances and/or people I wasn’t able to have a public blog anymore. In 2009 I joined Gavin Degraw’s web team & wanted another place to post for the team.

Now I use it for posts I think are “public appropriate”. I’m tired of “hiding” because of certain reasons and/or people and I think it’s been long enough to start sharing some of my life publicly. Blogger is anonymous enough that it’s too hard to find a blog without the address. I’m not on the public search engines and I only have a link to it on my Facebook. I guess it could get out to certain people but I don’t see that happening and if it did that’s something I’ll deal with if and when it happens or becomes a problem again.

I still have my private LJ that I use for the more private in detail posts. It’s mostly just for me & a few close friends if they so chose to read. Any blog I post is for me but I do keep in mind that blogger is public content and censor myself accordingly.

30 Days of Me: Day 11

Day 11- Another picture of you and your friends:

I find it rather ridiculous that I have to do this again after only 8 days. Put it down towards the end of the list if you’re going to have us do it twice. 

I don’t go around with my camera attached to my hand taking photos so it’s been a bit hard to do these types of entries. So I need to start taking more photos. Not because of stupid blog things like this but because I would actually like to have more photos of the people I love.

Jessica, me & Karie

We all grew up together so we're more like siblings. 

Also, today is Veteran's Day.  Happy Veteran's Day to all those who have served our country! Thank you and God Bless! 

Here's a photo of my favorite veteran.  My nephew Nick served in the Army for 5 years.
