I'm mostly kidding about Bestir.

[lunabee34]

I don't know who Bestir is! What show is this? I want to google.

[notasupervillain]

Oh man I was CERTAIN you'd know.

He's on Babylon 5 which is the other show about a space station that came out during the 90s.

You may recognize the actor for Bestir but we swear Babylon 5 is in no possible way derivative of Star Trek, PROMISE.

My teenage self was much more into Marcus as a sexy character than Bestir. Probably because my teenage self missed all the very not-subtle cues that the woman Marcus was courting was a lesbian. But Bestir was one of my favourite characters. I have a thing for Villains, what can I say.

[china_shop]

I love that you're giving write-in answers to your own poll. <3

[lunabee34]

Even I am desperately saddened by the lack of ticky. LOL

[chanter1944]

Ah frak, I wish we could pick more than one, because there are a handful on one poll and at least two on the other that are impossible to rank. Take my definition of 'sexy' as you will, by the way; I'm romantic acespec.

[lunabee34]

I know! Radio buttons are evil. LOL

But there can be only one! Or something.

[chanter1944]

And so there is. I'm agreeing as well as making references, but I'll say no more. Spoilerific trouble that way lies.

My second write-in answer is no surprise after what I've said elsepost, I'm sure.

[archersangel]

Ah frak, I wish we could pick more than one....

me too.

[lunabee34]

No! This is hard mode.

LOL

[chanter1944]

I should string a list of my choices together, similar to what a few of us did when we were ranking all the Trek doctors and captains. ... Hmm maybe not, it's already known I have a couple types. :P

[kore]

HOW CAN I CHOOSE BETWEEN ANY OF THOSE LADIES? THIS IS CRUEL AND UNUSUAL

also, no ticky

[lunabee34]

Heeeee. I have deliberately denied the ticky! We shall come to some conclusion here.

[kore]

TICKY DENIAL....now there's a kink!

[havocthecat]

I feel my lack of tickyboxes keenly. KEENLY. How many emotionally repressed or ultra-controlled women are you making me choose between? LUNABEE! THIS IS NOT FAIR!!!

[havocthecat]

Also sarcastic and emotionally repressed men.

I HAVE A TYPE, OKAY? A TYPE.

[lunabee34]

LOL

It is indeed not fair. Even to myself. As I began remembering a bunch of people I left off this list as soon as I made it.

[cathexys]

You definitely missed BSG here: both Apollo and Starbuck (Kara Thrace) should be on there :)

And really, who can pick between Aeryn Sun, Margery Tyrell, Sarah Connor, and Kara Thrace? I can't!!!

[lunabee34]

OMG, I did! I did! And I love that show.

*hangs head*

So many beautiful people. LOL

[chelseagirl]

I don't ship often, but when I do, I am deeply committed. Aeryn and John forever! And as she is one of my rare female crushes (I'm all about female characters but my crushes are usually male) and they are the absolute hottest together, as well as individually.

[lunabee34]

I am 100% with you. I love the two of them, always and forever.

As many moments of television that I hold in my heart, I really think my absolute favorite moment in 40 years of watching is John and Aeryn in that boat knowing they are about to die and kissing before being blown apart. I dig it so freaking hard.

[kaleecat]

Evil woman is evil. Too many lovelies and on any given day my top 5 may vary because some days I want snarky O’Neill, others I want so endearing Wash. Tho Daniel Jackson is always FTW.
and while I notice River Tam is missing - Zoe so rules Firefly.

What of my beloved original flavor BSG? I was all about Starbuck and Apollo.

I guess Quantum Leap and Buffy end up under fantasy? Giles, Sam Beckett, sigh.

SciFi show you may have missed— Space: Above and Beyond.

I am refusing to choose. Refusing I say!

[archersangel]

QL is sci-fi. i mean, time travel & the weird fashion of the late '90s the future.

my write-in vote was for scott bakula sam beckett.

[chanter1944]

Squee, another original BSG fan! I like Boomer, myself - he's such a gently snarky gold-hearted dear - and original Adama is just amazing to the power of ohmygoodness <3.

[lunabee34]

I know! I am evil for sure! I can't even choose myself. LOL

I totally dropped the ball on BSG; that was a show full of beautiful people.

We did watch Space Above and Beyond but only as it was airing, so I have almost no memory of it. I think it was cancelled early? And maybe ended on a cliffhanger? I remember that we liked the show.
