Because I think if you don't do a meme on occasion, they kick you off of LJ

[mrspollifax]

I'd have totally done the TV boyfriends meme, except if my husband did a TV girlfriends meme, I'd have read him the riot act. *sigh* And I thought about doing the TV girlfriends meme, because omg awesome women, but I am too lazy to deal with all those pictures. But this one? All I have to do is format text! I can do that!

Seen multiple places, most recently at holdouttrout's.

Empire Magazine has revealed its list of the "50 Greatest TV Shows" ever. So, of course, LJ-ers leaped upon the opportunity and made it into a meme.

1. Bold the shows you've watched every episode of
2. Italic the shows you've seen at least one episode of
3. Post your answers

The best part about this entry is the title. It is made of win. (and true!)

[mrspollifax.livejournal.com]

Hahaha. I'm glad to know that when I'm just amusing myself, I at least occasionally manage to amuse someone else too!

I need a list of memes for lazy people. =)

[supplyship.livejournal.com]

Haha, your post title! *dies*

Well, since Stargate isn't even on there, it's hard for all of us to show our obsessive natures off. ;)

[mrspollifax.livejournal.com]

Hee hee. And yeah, where's the Stargate? I've seen all of both of those! *grumbles*

Blah...

So I wanted to post MY TV viewing as a response, but I'm not cleaver enough to know how to bold and italic in a comment, even if I cut and paste it it. Sigh. Probably involves HTML skills. I'll have to e-mail it to you. Moral of the story is I have watched WAY more TV than you!

Re: Blah...

[mrspollifax.livejournal.com]

HTML is easy-peasy. I sent you bolding and italicizing directions for future reference.

Have you watched Red Dwarf for the same reason I have, or did your hubby cause that?

Re: Blah...

[binkii822.livejournal.com]

Mom and Richard, not hubby. Hubby doesn't do british humor...

Re: Blah...

[mrspollifax.livejournal.com]

Yes. You win. *g*

Re: Blah...

[binkii822.livejournal.com]

Not so much since all I did was cut and paste your work, but next time I know! Thanks! ;)

Re: Blah...

[mrspollifax.livejournal.com]

No, I just meant the TV! But you can win at HTML, too, if you want.

Re: Blah...

[binkii822.livejournal.com]

YEARS of grading papers with the TV on in the background...I think I've seen every SVU and Law and Order, and House, and Bones, and both Stargates, and Medium, and CSI Miami also...my life is sad...

Re: Blah...

[mrspollifax.livejournal.com]

Your life is not sad. Look, you made me pull out the grumpy gummi bear. *dies laughing*

Re: Blah...

[binkii822.livejournal.com]

*grin*
I was wrong though, I've never seen Sunday, so I haven't seen all the Atlantis episodes.
