Meme!

[raybear]

I had a little too much fun answering Liza's, so I should put this in my own journal too. It's also an appropriate meme, given that lately I've been paying more attention to the strange keyword phrases that IMDB uses for movies.

-Go to IMDb.com and look up 10 TV shows you like(d).
-Post three official IMDb "Plot Keywords" for these 10 picks.
-Have your friends guess the show names (no cheating!)

1. Deceased Father, Flashback Sequence, Phone Sex

2. End Of The World Scenario, Creator Creation Relationship, Robot As Menace

3. Post It, Crushed To Death, Black Comedy

4. Neo Noir, Demon, Conflicted Hero

5. Critically Acclaimed, Gay Slur, Racial Slur

6. Mystery Woman, New York City, Character Name In Title [

7. Hero Gone Bad, Boxer Rebellion, Chosen One

8. Horror, Non Fiction, Character Name In Title

9. Science, Murder, Bullet

10. Robot As Pathos, Famous Opening Theme, Tea

Here are the answers and who got them right first:

1. Sisters [vfc]
2. Battlestar Galactica [unscrambled]
3. Dead Like Me [vfc]
4. Angel [anjibobanji]
5. The Wire [fish]
6. Ugly Betty [vfc]
7. Buffy [anjibobanji]
8. Oprah [vfc]
9. CSI [unscrambled]
10. Star Trek the Next Generation [vfc]

I think my favorite phrases are "Robot as Menace" and "Robot as Pathos".

Spot on with 2 and 9. You're the second person to guess Six Feet under for the first one, which totally fits, but it's not the one I picked.
