6. Actually probably yes, although right now I can’t think right now of any show in particular. But I think there must have definitely been a few, just because gif sets on tumblr have often encouraged me to look more into a show and see if it’s something that I want to check out. Same with videos on YouTube. Just in general getting an idea of what the characters are like and if they would appeal to me is what can draw me into a show and want to find out more, The Americans is one show that I started watching after people were discussing the scene of them being fake captured by their own people, and posting video clips and gifs from it
8. I...actually can’t think of any? I usually only start watching a show because it sounds intriguing, so it’s rarely a case where I was expecting to hate it, I wouldn’t really bother with a show in the first place if it sounds that awful to me lol. Certainly though there have been shows that I wasn’t expecting to love as much as I ultimately did. True Detective and Sex Education were recent shows where I wasn’t super excited to check them out, I mostly started watching Sex Education for Gillian Anderson, and True Detective because of how much critical praise and hype it has gotten, and I ended up enjoying both shows a lot more than I was initially expecting
26. Hmm I don’t think I do really. And heh yes, I picked this name out years ago on a whim, and it’s just kind of stuck with me as my internet name everywhere. It can be a little awkward though if you do tell people what it directly translates as, I really don’t even think of its origins much any more *g* Farscape fans do seem to appreciate it though, I still get the occasional person on reddit or ONTD saying they think it’s a cool name
