Everyone's already been posting the link to Joss Whedon's top 25 TV character list (not including any of his own), but I just have to comment on one particular item: Dude, he listed Anna Devane from General Hospital - I feel like so much less of a cheesy dork now for continuing to watch this show, off and on, for all these years (I was indoctrinated early at my mother's feet). Though I suppose Joss himself is rather geeky or dorky, so why it should make me feel better that he watches it, too...well, I'm not going to look too deeply into that. The man created Firefly. 'Nuff said.
Speaking of GH, I've been damn impressed with certain stories this past year - the rift between Sonny and Jason, the rift between Jason and Sam - ok, so I really don't like the rift between Jason and Sam, but a couple of scenes have moved me involving that storyline, like the one a couple of weeks ago when they were both on the balcony where she was shot in his arms, and he just lost it for a second - that was great. The characters are growing and changing through this story, and really, that should be the whole point, right?
But enough of my guilty soap opera secret. Let's talk about the new show that premiered last night, Vanished. (I have yet to see Prison Break - don't any of you dare spoil me!)
