Queer as Folk (US)
Created by WideOcean and taken 42 times on bzoink!
I. Basics - Because you know no survey's complete without them ;)
Age?	25
Gender?	Female
Gay? Straight? Bi? Something else?	It depends on the position of Venus
II. General QaF-ness
How long have you been watching the show?	About two and a half years
How did you first get into it?	I caught Hal Sparks on one of the "I Love" shows on VH1, and saw he worked on QAF. Curiousity piqued, I went to Sho.com and started watching clips. It grew from there.
Have you seen the UK version as well?	Yes; I love UK. It's the QAF I'd push onto those wary about the whole concept.
Do you have a favorite season?	S1's gotten a lot of play, but I like arcs more than entire seasons (lack of consistency being an issue with the show).
A favorite episode?	216 is one (Ben's hospitalized). The one where Brian's dad dies (117?).
A favorite scene?	There's a scene late in S1 where the entire crew is sitting in Woody's, and they're talking about their sexual experiences; the dialogue is great and they have real comraderie
Who are your favorite characters?	Eh, I guess Emmett and Michael
And the least favorite?	I tend to fastforward stuff Horvath is in, but only because his romance with Deb bores me.
III. Characters - Tell the world what you think about..
Brian	Why would anyone hang out with this guy? He's gotten softer around the edges lately, I'll give him that much. I liked him back in S1, when he cried.
Justin	Dude needs to keep the long hair. 'sAll I'm sayin'.
Michael	He's whining less. I've always seen more of myself in Michael than any other character. The comic love, the occasional stupidity, etc etc.
Emmett	I wish I had a friend like Emmett around. I get the feeling guys like him only exist as hilarious gay characters on TV shows.
Ted	Aww, poor Eeyore. I see part of myself in Ted as well (lack of self-esteem and worth).
Debbie	I couldn't imagine growing up with a woman like her. Bwah. The woman's lovable as hell, but crazy as a mofo.
Vic	Man, Uncle Vic, it was wrong the way they hooked you up with Rodney and then off'd you in order to heighten the Michael/Ben relationship drama.
Melanie	Mel's pretty one dimensional, like her partner. I wish they'd explored her Jewish roots more. And made her less of a raving bitch.
Lindsey	I liked Lindz more when she had some meat on her bones. I think I'd like her if her character was fleshed out.
Ben	I want a hunky professor in my life now, dammit. Ben - setting impossibly high standards for all the men in my future. He's a great ground for Michael's occasional histrionics
Hunter	God help me, but I keep wishing he was cuter. I'm so shallow. Other than that, I don't much like or dislike the character. He's just there.
Blake	I liked Blake when he wasn't tweaked the eff out. I wish they'd bring him back. He and Ted really made a nice couple.
Ethan	Dude had a soul patch. Never trust a person with a soul patch. That is all.
Dr David	Why'd you want to leave, man? Dr. Dave was the perfect foil for Brian's assholeness. Too bad he was such a controlling dick. I keep wanting to see him come back though.
Daphne	I don't see enough of her anymore to even remember what she looks like. Dang.
IV. This or that - Feel free to explain why
Brian/Justin or Brian/Michael?	Brian/Michael, only because I'm a sucker for pairings that will never ever happen in a million kazillion years. They have all that background, it can't be denied.
Ted/Emmett or Ted/Blake?	It squigs me to see Temmett, because those two are the best of friends. I can't stand to see them intimate with one another. It's Ted/Blake by default.
Brian/Justin or Justin/Ethan?	Ethan had a soul patch. Soul patchs and their bearers are EVIL. Justin deserves better than evil, so I guess he's stuck with Brian.
Ben/Michael oder David/Michael?	I know less about Ben's history, so it's easier for me to say the two have more in common. And Ben's not an ass. I'd say Ben/Michael. Ben's just great.
Woody's or Babylon?	Woody's. You can talk to your friends at Woody's. The whole gratuitous sex vibe of Babylon is so two seasons ago.
Backroom or back alley?	Backroom is all-weather, so I'm going to have to go with it. There's nothing worse that getting frostbite while getting your groove on.
Cosmo or Jim Beam? ;)	J. Beam, baby.
Corvette or Jeep?	Corvette. I have to admit, the one Brian's sporting is damned snazzy.
V. Best...
...kiss	Brian and that random dude in the bathroom in 103...? With The Lawyer song playing.
...sex scene	Ben/Michael, 209. That shit just...whoa. It's moving.
...fight	Em and Mel, after Ted's admission of stealing. Damn. That was hardcore.
...outfit	I was a sucker for Brian's nicely tailored suits in S1. And Michael's dress in the Pride eppy. Heh.
...party	Studs and Suds, S1. Em's "Hey, look what I found? My rubber duckie! Quack quack!" always slays me.
...line	"To Michael: Beneath whose mild-mannered appearance beats the heart of a superhero". Damn you, Ben!
...scene that made you want to cry	When Brian comes to Michael's apartment in S1 after meeting with his father. They head to bed, and Brian cries. It's a moment of vulnerability we never see again, which is sad
...conversation	The crew in Woody's in the eppy where Daphne and Justin "do it". Debbie and Michael in 103, while Ted's in the hospital.
...song	"Break for Love" - PSB (Friburn and Urik Remix)
VI. The End
What would you like to happen next season?	Strengthen Brian and Michael's friendship. It used to be the center of the show - what happened? Don't kill off anyone. Don't make it all be just a dream (ala "Dallas").
Anything else you want to add?	Nopers.
That's it for now... Don't kill me if I forgot anything important. ;)

I already took this, so nyah. :P

To comment on your thoughts on Lindsay...I TOTALLY agree! Thea has gotten so skinny!! Me no likey. :(

[fredericks.livejournal.com]

Did you post your response in your journal? I'd love to see it.

Thea has gotten so skinny!! Me no likey
I liked her back when because she didn't have the stereotypical Hollywood actress shape. She probably wasn't larger than a size 6, but her build was luscious. Then she had to go and conform. I guess it's in an attempt to get more work, but it doesn't mean I have to like it.

Then again, she probably could give a flying eff what we think about her size reduction.

I think that may be it. Stupid Hollywood and their "definition of beauty"...*stab*

I likes me a woman with meat on her bones, and Thea just does not look healthy. I think the only really super-skinny woman I'm attracted to is Michelle Clunie. :P
