Buffy Summers and Will Graham
no subject
I like Buffy because of how heroic she is, how she's always trying to do the right thing and putting everyone else first
I dislike Buffy because sometimes she does have a tendency to be self-righteous
Favourite season is tough to narrow down, but I'd say probably season 5? Or season 2 maybe? It's hard to narrow that one down!
Ditto on favourite episode. I can't go with just one I don't think lol, Prophecy Girl, Becoming and Chosen are the first that come to mind
Hmm favourite line is maybe, 'She saved the world. A lot.' That pretty much sums up her character I'd say!
One of the Buffy outfits that always really stands out is her blue coat from Becoming, love love love the visual there when she comes running in. But really she wears some great clothes in every season pretty much, I also love the red leather pants from Graduation Day
And I'm sure it won't shock anyone when I say that Spufffy are my OTP
I'm not sure if this is the right answer for Brotp, but I think I'd say Faith actually. I really loved that whole dynamic between them, and the actresses had great chemistry
Not sure if this is still an unpopular opinion or not, but I thought they handled Buffy's depression arc in season 6 really well, well other than attempting to wrap it up too quickly in the end anyway. But I really related to how much Buffy struggled with being an ~adult~ in her early 20's, how she trying to find the right job when she didn't have a clue what she wanted to do, and I thought there were some great episodes in that time
Not character related exactly, but I guess my wish would be that we get to see Buffy in HD (done properly) for the 20th anniversary coming up
A Buffy/Xander pairing should never EVER happen :P
Will Graham
I dislike Will because of how he set Chilton up, that was tough to watch
Erm I'm not sure which my favourite season would be for Will actually, I guess that he was the most interesting to me in season 3 when they took him to a darker place with Hannibal? Also season 2 though when he was torn between his bond with Hannibal, and doing the right thing (and wanting to kill Hannibal in the beginning/fearing that he was becoming Hannibal).. And then season 1 when he's dealing with his guilt over killing Abigail's father, and slowly going insane because of his brain disease (the name of which I forget right now). Basically I love him in every season, they always had a lot of interesting character stuff for him
I can't really think of a favourite episode at the moment, it's been a while since I've seen them all, I'm due for a complete series re-watch this year. Right now I'd say probably the series 3 finale is the one that sticks out in my mind for his character, although I'm not sure that that's the most flattering portrayal of him lol
Favourite line is, 'Is Hannibal in love with me?' :P
Honestly I never really notice Will's outfit, so I'm just gonna say the straight jacket and biting mask scene was the most memorable visual for him there
Do you even have to ask who my OTP are? :P
My Brotp are also Will/Hannibal
I'm not sure if this is an unpopular opinion, but I disagree with a lot of the assumptions being made after the finale. It seemed like a lot of people jumped to the belief that the show was setting up ~murder husbands~, and that Will and Hannibal were going to kill Belinda together, but I didn't get that from it at all? Will appreciated the beauty in killing the red dragon, aka a serial killer, but I never felt like that meant that he was going to start killing indiscriminately with Hannibal
My wish would be for another season or a mini-series, and that it's focused entirely on Will and Hannibal's story. Recently I've been hearing whispers that Bryan Fuller is interested in doing his version of SotL, but honestly I feel like we've already seen that. This also falls under unpopular opinion I guess, but while I did think that the Red Dragon storyline was well-done, that was one part of the show that didn't excite me because I'd already seen so many of the story beats in the film. I'm more invested in the show as a prequel, and seeing them do something new with Hannibal and Will's relationship. It's not as interesting for me to go over ground that's already been covered before
I don't want Will to start butchering innocent people with Hannibal. It's an interesting idea for fan fic maybe, but canon Will Graham would never

I guess I disliked how she let Daisy push her around in the beginning, it got a bit frustrating to watch (although I do love Daisy!)
Favourite season for Georgia would probably be the first one, it had the most interesting plots for her adjusting to her new life, although I liked her in both seasons
Favourite episode for Georgia would be the pilot I think, she was another character where I instantly related to her lack of direction after high school
Honestly a favourite line isn't coming to mind right now, although I'm sure I'd have tons if I could think of them. It's just been years since I last watched DLM
Same with favourite outfit, although none of Georgia's outfits ever stood out to me that much anyway
I didn't have an OTP for Georgia, I know that a lot of the fandom shipped her with Mason, but I always liked Mason/Daisy
For Brotp erm I always enjoyed her scenes with Rube and with Delores, although neither of those probably count as a Brotp in the least lol. Well maybe her and Delores would, I always liked what a close team they became at Happy Times
One unpopular opinion is that I didn't entirely hate the movie. Most of the character work with the ensemble cast was awful and out of character, and there was no longer any chemistry between the Grim Reapers, but I did really like the scenes between Georgia and Reggie.
I can't really think of any wishes, I was happy with how the movie ended with the post-its raining down on Georgia, I thought that wrapped it all up nicely. It was just sad what the movie did to Mason, Daisy, and Roxy :(
Like I said, I wasn't a fan of Mason/Georgia and wouldn't want to ever see that pairing, they always felt more like brother/sister to me

I disliked Sam at times when he was on demon blood, he seemed to lose a lot of sensitivity around that time when it came to handling a Dean with PTSD
I can't really think of one favourite season for Sam, I think that season 4 was probably the most interesting time for his character though
Favourite Sam episodes would include Mystery Spot, Bad Day At Black Rock, Born Under A Bad Sign, and After School Special
Favourite line Oh gosh I don't know, how about, "I lost my shoe" :P I love Sam's pouty expression when he says that heh
I don't really notice Sam's outfit, anytime Sam is shirtless is a plus for me though. Those boys war too many layers!
I don't have an OTP for sam
Brotp is Sam and Dean duh
An unpopular opinion is that I nearly always side with Sam when it comes to Sam and Dean's conflicts, I can always relate more to Sam's frustration at wanting his own independence, while at the same time wanting Dean to understand that that doesn't mean that he loves his brother any less
I guess my wish would be that I would like the show to end on some kind of happy ending for Sam and Dean, it feels like they've earned it after all this time!
I can't really think of something I don't want to happen, maybe a reconciliation with Amelia lol, that relationship was a bit of a mess

I like Frank because he brings an interesting perspective to season 2 with his debates with Matt
I dislike Frank because I don't buy some of his rationale, like when they have him claim that he's such a good shot that no innocent person was in any danger in the hospital shooting, there's no way for anyone to be 100% confident of that as far as I'm concerned. His obsession with vengeance is a turn-off for me quite honestly, I more share Daredevil's POV on that
Favourite season for him is n/a, he's only been in the one!
Favourite episode would be the one in the prison where he takes everyone out, that was very memorable
Hmm I guess his line to Matt about how when he hits them, they stay down.
He looks good in black :P
And it's not an OTP of mine, but I did really like his dynamic with Karen, I could ship it
I don't have a Brotop for Frank
An unpopular opinion of mine would probably be that, while I did enjoy watching Frank's character, Fisk from season 1 was actually my favourite antoganist
Erm I'd like to see them explore Frank and Karen more I guess
And I can't think of any please don't ever happen scenario's at the moment

I dislike Gwen for her tendency to take Rhys for granted, and how she would make flirtatious comments to Jack about how she married Rhys because "no one else would have me"
Favourite season for Gwen was Children Of Earth
Favourite episode was the season 1 finale, I loved her whole confrontation with Jack after she finds Rhys dead
Favourite line:
Favourite outfit: I can't think of any at the moment
It's not an OTP or anything, but I always liked her with Rhys
I don't have a Brotp for Gwen, I don't remember her and Tosh ever seeming to bond that much
I have no idea if this is unpopular or not, but I really didn't like the Owen and Gwen affair. IMO she could have done a lot better for herself, and then in season 2 it felt like the show had practically forgotten that it ever happened anyway. It all seemed a bit pointless to me
I don't have any wishes for Gwen I don't think, although it would be interesting to get a continuation for TW sometime, and find out what she's doing with hersaelf these days
And I really don't want Jack/Gwen to happen, they are my anti OTP I'm afraid, I always felt like the show was really forcing their UST and encouraging the audience to ship it

I dislike Xander because of his attitude to the women in his life, he could be very judgemental in a way that he had no right to be, especially considering that he was in his own relationship with a former vengeance demon who had a lot of blood on her hands
Favourite season for Xander would probably be season 7, there wasn't as much of him that year, but it did feel like he had grown up finally and was becoming less judgemental
Favourite Xander-centric episode would be Bewitched Bewildered And Bothered actually, although it doesn't show him in a good light to put it mildly lol, but it's one of the more fun Xander episodes.
I know that Xander has tons of funny quotes, but none are really standing out to me at the moment I'm afraid
Favourite Xander outfit would be the swimming trunks in Go Fish!
I always liked Xander/Cordelia together, I used to find them a lot of fun in season 2 especially
Xander didn't really have many guy friends, so I guess my Brotp for him would be Willow
And unpopular opinion would be that I think that Xander gets a lot of unfair hate in fandom, especially with the younger fans on tumblr. No he wasn't always perfect, and yes he absolutely could be an entitled "nice guy", but all the fans acting like him and Willow are the scum of the earth are a bit much.
I dunno what wish I have for Xander really, it would have been nice if him and Anya could have worked things out towards the end of season 7, but there's not much chance of that now!
I never want to see Xander paired up with either Buffy or Dawn

I dislike Giles because he did let Buffy down in season 6 to just take off in the way that he did, and he never really acknowledged that
Favourite season for Giles would probably be season 4, it was interesting seeing him try and adjust to no longer being the librarian and official watcher
Favourite Giles episode would be A New Man
Maybe his joke about American football in Some Assembley Required lol
Favourite Giles outfit would probably be when he started wearing sweaters in season 4, it was nice to see him out of tweed. Ooh though I did also like his more formal outfit in Tabula Rasa
I don't really have an OTP for Giles, I have unpopular opinions on him and Jenny
My Brotp for Giles was Ethan, it was a shame that he just disappeared after season 4
Unpopular opinion would be that I didn't care for Giles/Jenny. I know it was supposed to be an adorable opposites attract dynamic with the young hip teacher teasing the old fuddy-duddy, but I thought that Jenny was actually pretty rude and dismissive at times. Like when she makes out that she ruined a first edition of his book, then jokes that she was just trying to see him squirm, or when she says that he's like something from a previous century because he likes books more than computers. I felt like a lot of those little put-downs disguised as flirtation would only have made Giles feel even more out of a place and a relic from another age, and I dunno something about them just rubbed me the wrong way.
And it's hard to think of a wish for a show that's over, but I guess I hope that he does eventually manage to find someone and starts feeling like he has a life
I never want Giles to do anything to betray Buffy again, Helpless was enough for me

I disliked Diane when she acted really self-righteous with Cary and the other fourth-years in season 5, even though they all (barring Alicia) had every right to feel betrayed at the broken promises on partnership, it was a bit rich of her to start lecturing Cary on all that she had done for him
Honestly I've only watched the entire series once, so I'm struggling to narrow down particular episodes or seasons, but I remember really enjoying the season 2 arc with her and Will
'When the door you have been knocking out finally swings open, you don't ask why. You run through'
Diane has worn so many fabulous outfits that nearly every one is a favourite quite honestly, I can't think of any specific one that jumps out at me at the moment
My OTP for Diane was with Kurt, I hope they manage to work things out :(
Brotp was her partnership with Will of course. I wasn't always Will's biggest fan, so honestly I didn't expect to miss him that much after he was killed off, but the show really did end up losing something when it was no longer Will and Diane running things
Eh I'm not sure that I have any really unpopular opinions on Diane, at least none that I can think of right now
My wish would be that things work out for her on The Good Fight in the end, and that her new firm become a success
I don't want her to go back to L&G at this point, it was annoying enough on TGW when they kept taking one step backwards all the time

I dislike Matt when he pushes his friends away, and convinces himself that it's safer for him to act alone
I'd say that Matt definitely come across better in the first season, it was a shame how much he isolated himself later on
Honestly I can't think of one favourite episode, I've only watched Daredevil the once so far. Maybe the episode where Foggy first finds out about Matt's secret identity, I remember that one having some powerful scenes in it
'I'm not seeking penance for what I've done, Father. I'm asking for forgiveness for what I'm about to do"
I always liked his original Daredevil outfit more from the first season
I guess an unpopular opinion would be that I still liked Matt's character in the second season, whereas a lot of my flist seemed to turn against him after he become swept up by Elektra, and had less time for Foggy and Karen
I don't know that I really have an OTP for Matt, if I did it would probably be Elektra, but I'm not averse to seeing him and Karen together either
Brotp is Matt and Foggy of course, love them!
One wish would be that him, Foggy, and Karen end up on better terms for season three
I can't think of any oh-god-please-dont-ever-happens lol

I dislike Bonnie because she did have a tendency to be a bit rigid in her views on vampires early on, I thought she could have been more understanding when Caroline was first turned especially
Favourite Season: Season 6, I loved all of those scenes with her in the hell dimension, and how determined she was to find a way to escape
Favorite episode: 504 when her friends are mourning Bonnie, and she's watching over them
Favourite Line: Maybe her confrontation with Damon in season 7 when she finds out about his plans to desecrate, and lets him know how much he's hurt her
Favorite outfit: Can't really think of one, Bonnie's outfits have never stood out to me that much tbh
OTP: Umm not really an OTP, but Enzo/Bonnie have grown on me a lot, it was nice to see the writers finally give her the same kind of passionate relationship that Elena and Caroline were always having
Brotp: Bonnie and Damon
Unpopular opinion: I'm not sure if this is unpopular or not, but I was rooting for a Damon/Bonnie pairing for a while there in season 7
A wish: That she and Enzo get their happy ending I guess
An oh-god-please-dont-ever-happen: I don't want Bonnie dying at the end of the series to bring Elena back
no subject
Angel (from Angel, not Buffy)
no subject
Why I don't: Because he's always so convinced that he knows what's best for the people around him
Favourite Season: I'll say season 2, that was the most interesting time for me for his character when he was being tempted by Darla
Favorite episode: Darla, Reunion, Are You Now Or Have You Ever Been
Favourite Line: 'My parents were great. Tasted a lot like chicken'. Heh I don't know, that was just the first that came to mind
Favorite outfit: Something in black
OTP: Angel/Darla
Brotp: I can't really think of one, the show would push Angel/Wesley as a bromance, but I was never really feeling it. I'll say Doyle I guess, they had some good friendship scenes early on
Unpopular opinion: Angel wasn't making any kind of justified stand at the end of his series, he was taking a huge and pointless risk just so that he could feel like the ~champion~ going out in a blaze of glory
A wish: I don't really have any
An oh-god-please-dont-ever-happen: Well it's a bit late for that with Ats, but I never wanted to see the Angel and Cordelia pairing happen. I thought they both brought out the worst in one another with all of the ~two champions~ together ego-feeding, and I wish they would have just stayed friends

Why I don't: She has a tendency to be self-involved
Favourite Season: Wow I can't really think of just one season for Lorelai, she has her moments in all of them really
Favorite episode: Maybe the episode when she first opens the Dragonfly inn?
Favourite Line: 'Oy with the poodles already'
Favorite outfit: Again it's hard to narrow down, she wore so many great clothes. Maybe the dress from the dance marathon episode, she looked gorgeous in that
OTP: Lorelai/Christoper
Brotp: Her close bond with Rory has to go there I think
Unpopular opinion: I don't ship Lorelai with Luke, I always felt like she was partially setting for him because she knew that Luke was dependable and would always be there for her. I do think that she loves Luke, I just don't see any great passion there
A wish: For another Netflix season of GG! Also I would like to see her an Emily get a bit closer, but I don't see that really happening at this point. They've on better terms than they were at least I suppose
An oh-god-please-dont-ever-happen: I don't want to see another Lorelai and Rory rift ever again
no subject
no subject
Why I don't: She should have just left with Nadia after she managed to switch into Elena's body, it was inexcusably dumb to hang around Elena's family and friends assuming that they wouldn't guess the truth
Favourite Season: Season 5, it was fun seeing her re-adjusting to being human, plus learning to be a mother to Nadia
Favorite episode: Hmm maybe Katerina from season 2, it was good to get some more background on her. Or the 100th episode, that was another good one
Favourite Line: 'Better you die than I' is the Katherine quote, although she has so many great one-liners
Favorite outfit: Soo many! I really can't narrow it down, nearly everything that Katherine wore looked great on her. Probably one of her glamorous dresses from the past if I had to pick one
OTP: It used to Damon/Katherine in the first couple of seasons, but that never really went anywhere. I did like her scenes with Stefan in season 5, by then I was done with Damon's attitude towards her, and I appreciated how gentle Stefan was with Katherine as a dying human. Ultimately I don't think that I really have an absolute OTP for Katherine though
Brotp: I loved her and Caroline teaming up in season 5, it always felt like Katherine genuinally liked Caroline
Unpopular opinion: Maybe that I shipped her with Damon more than with Stefan in the beginning? In spite of the show always emphasising that she was more into Stefan, I always felt like she and Damon were the better match. It got annoying in seasons 2/3 though when the show kept telling us how over Katherine Damon was, and how desperate she was for his attention, they repeated that kind of scene a few too many times lol
A wish: Katherine needs to come back out of hell before the end of the series
An oh-god-please-dont-ever-happen: I don't want Katherine to come back reformed and beaten, she still needs to have that essential Katherine attitude
no subject
no subject
Why I don't: Not to sound unsympathetic to a recovering 'addict' lol, but sometimes her hang-ups about not doing magic got a bit annoying in season 7
Favourite Season: Season 2
Favorite episode: Doopelgangland
Favourite Line: 'I'm eating this banana, lunchtime be damned'
Favorite outfit: It's hard to pick a favourite Willow outfit, as in the most tasteful and fashionable one, so I'm going to go the other way. The all pink outfit with the daisies on it in Doopelgangland (I'm sure you know the one!), that's the most essentially Willow outfit that comes to mind right now XD
OTP: Willow/Tara
Brotp: Buffy and Willow
Unpopular opinion: Sometimes Tara was a bit too pushy and holier than thou in her attitude towards magic, am I really supposed to buy that it was the end of the world if Willow wants to use magic to decorate Buffy's birthday party? Yeah I get that it was meant to be part of a slippery slope, but while using dark magic to bring someone back from the dead is an obvious bad, some of Tara's complaints were a bit inconsistent with how they had used magic to manipulate the world around them in the past
A wish: I hope that Willow broke up with Kennedy shortly after the end of the series
An oh-god-please-dont-ever-happen: Eh I don't know, I guess that I don't want her to ever lose contact with Buffy and Xander?
