Tag 9 people you want to get to know better. I was tagged by @cbsaidwords. Congrats on your first meme--so glad you're here! :D

Three ships: Agreed on the Leverage OT3, always. Also, I'll never be over Leslie Knope and Ben Wyatt from Parks and Rec, and my newest ship is Kalluzeb (Alexsandr Kallus and Zeb Orrelios from Star Wars: Rebels). Although, @kcrabb88 is happily dragging me into ObiQuin with her great fics!

First ever ship: I'm sure there were others, but the first one I remember being really into was Joan Girardi and Adam Rove, from Joan of Arcadia. I wish that show made the "best shows cancelled after two seasons" poll going around!

Last song: Battle Cries, by The Amazing Devil

Last movie: Bend it Like Beckham! I know I've seen this movie many times, but I still forgot that *spoilers for an over 20-year-old movie* Jess kisses Joe at the end? Why?

Currently reading: Angels in America (the revised and complete edition). Katie and I saw a staging of Part One: Millennium Approaches, and it reminded me how much I love some of those monologues.

Currently watching: Ted Lasso! I know some people feel weird about this latest season, but I really like it--I feel like the writers are smart and really know what they're about. Just finished the second season of Schmigadoon/Schmicago, too, which was really fun.

Currently consuming: Popcorn

Currently craving: Candy, as always :)

I absolutely no-pressure tag: @bluedalahorse; @selfishjean; @the-law-of-progress; @kenobster; @coruscantrhapsody; @blindsunflowersandbooks; @amarguerite; and anyone else who feels like doing it!

Top 100 Ladies of TV

Looking at old blog posts, many years ago I did a "100 favorite female characters" list, but I have met so many wonderful new ladies now that it is quite out of date and needs a major update to accommodate them. International Women’s Day seems like the perfect time to do so!

Only this time I'm restricting it to TV characters, or I will die of Overwhelm.

NOTE: This list is not in any kind of order, I just wrote them down as they came to mind. I considered alphabetical, but found it was nicer to keep everyone from a given show together. And rather than starting from scratch, I kept as much of the original list as I could and just added newer favorites on at the end, if you're wondering why some of these Very Old Fandoms are clustered at the top.
