Ok I had nothing to say so i decided to trawl Livejournal for some good memes.

1. Post a list of up to 20 books/movies/anime/TV shows/video games/etc. that you've had an obsessive fannish love of at some time in your life
2. Have your friends list guess your favourite character from each item.
3. Post in your own blog.

1. Gone With the Wind Rhett Butler, Fudge
2. Harry Potter (surprise, surprise) Fred Weasley, Designer Dentist
3. Everwood
4. ER
5. Little Women through to Jo's Boys
6. Anne of Green Gables series
7. Malory Towers/ St Clares
8. Neighbours
9. North and South: John Thornton of course, guessed by the Designer Dentist
10. The OC
11. Fiddler on the Roof The Rabbi's Son, Bikey! (excellent- I'm impressed)
12. Blackadder (Goes Forth specifically)
13. Georgette Heyers
14. What Katy Did series

Some of these were more obsessive than others, and then some are not a little cringey, but, as I recently explained to Pink, I and my whole household, do tend to become fixated and wholly immersed in whatever our latest phase is. I guess what we do is absorb it all until it's part of the establishment. Like when no one knew Firefly it was sad cause there was no common ground in the family community: we need to be to be at a point where we can share quotes and refernces. It's all very neat if you look at it in terms of linguistics..

ETA: I just removed Sweet Valley, Cecilia, Firefly, Anna Karenina, Lucerne Symphony orchestra, Dexter's Lab because Pink Pistol said the list was too long so I got rid of those which almost no one knew, I couldn't think of a favourite or they didn't qualify as obsessions. Ray if you read this you know Jayne Cobb wins hands down...
If BSE were around I'd be betting on her
When someone guesses right I'll put the answer on the post

well done mij for guessing the rabbi's son! He's such a dude! Other than that you seem to have a common problem- you pick your own favourites (Grawp, etc) not mine :)

I don't know when you replied to this- must've been years later. But Yeah Bright! and Cpt Darling!!! Sandy yes. This is over a year long and now my memories of er have faded- but Romano was very likely. You are good.
