Depends on the mood I'm in....
With fiction, I love how the story the writer tells is only limited by their imagination. And with non-fiction, the events of the past are just as interesting (and sometimes more intriguing) as fiction; I say probably more interesting, because the people connected to the events were actually alive at some point in time.

Amanda Tapping, what more could a girl ask for. I started watching for her, then I feel in love with the whole idea.
Yes, I ship them. And I regret nothing. As for why....no clue really.
I didn't pick up this series until this year and I have to say, I've been wondering where it has been all my life. I absolutely adore Walter and the whole cast really.
They are perfect. While I feel sorry that has a couple they just can't seem to catch a break, but to me, it adds to the romance of it all. Who wants a couple that has it perfect--eventually the romance will die because it was handed to you instead of you having to work at it.
It speaks to the history nerd in me. I get action and adventure along with some good old fashion history what more can a girl ask for.
Steve and Pete. Everyone needs at least one crack pairing and they are mine. And I don't care who knows. :p
Another Syfy network favorite. It's a quirky show about a bunch of scientists that have more brains than common sense. And I can't help but feel back for Jack Carter, the man whose has the common sense to stop them.
Nathan and Jack. I have a great love of polar opposite relationships. It always seems to add a little fun to the mix and the relationship never seems to be dull.
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH. Snarky jokes, dry humor, and wonderful eye candy. And the plot isn't so bad--I kid, I kid--I absolutely love the plot.
Dean and Cas. I'm a bit of a sadist when it comes to them, but I just love how broken they both are. And I have hopes that Cas will return and through their love, they will make each other seem a little less broke.
Alphas. I have no pairings for this show, I just like it. I sometimes feel a little confused after watching it, but it's all good.
I love how they managed to take a short story and give it such an awesome back-story and fore-story.
I totally ship them. And I hate they left the season finale. I need more, now!!

How Can You Not Love This Show? Action! Adventure! Strange Gadgets! Aliens! Romance! Comedy!
They will always been my favorite couple. Cause Rose Tyler was the first companion I met. And the Tenth Doctor...the Doctor I feel in love with (I liked the Ninth, but he always a little too broken for me).
Martha and Mickey....I just love how they got there happy ending, so to speak. They were both in love with people, who would never love them like that, but they found each other in the end.
It's Amy and Rory. When I first saw Amy with Rory, I wasn't so sure if Amy actually loved him or Rory was just a place holder until the Doctor reappeared. But when she became so broken when her memories of him were being wiped, I knew it was True Love. Rory balances Amy out, tries to stop her from doing stupid things (even though it never works).
I'm in love with this series. I've always had a soft spot for British period pieces (my mum jokes that I was born in the wrong decade and the wrong country).
Anna Smith and Mr. Bates. I love that Anna is willing to wait however long for Mr. Bates to be rid of his horrid wife and that Mr. Bates refuses Anna's offer of becoming his mistress until that time. They love each other and are both willing to make sacrifices until they can be properly wed.
Mary and Matthew. I didn't really like Mary in the beginning; she was a child playing at being an adult. But in the last few years, she has come into her own and realizes that she made mistakes, that she shouldn't have behaved the way she had towards Matthew. As for Matthew, he was man that was just to make the best of an strange situation, and in the process, feel in love with a spoiled girl who had a good heart--even if it was a little misguided at times.
Sybil and Branson...I didn't really see the romance in Series 1 but I definitely do in Series 2. Sybil is no longer a girl of 16 trying to understand the world around her; now she gets it, and the world isn't as black and white as she always assumed. As for Branson, I think Sybil is a good match for him, because he holds a "them" vs. "us" ideal and Sybil is showing him that it isn't always as cut and dry as one likes to believe.
I have no words for how amazingly brilliant this show is. It's so campy and not all that realistic, but its hilarious to watch.
Merlin and Arthur. I like the fact that Merlin is around the same age as Arthur, instead of an old man. I can see a relationship between them because while Merlin might be Arthur's servant, Merlin doesn't view himself as a servant (he doesn't act the way that a servant should around Arthur). Also, I would rather Merlin and Arthur get together then have Arthur and Gwen, because we all know how that relationship ends.
A series with Captain Jack Harkness...sign me up. I loved him on Doctor Who and cried when he got killed then resurrected. But I love the series because it had everything that Doctor Who couldn't show.
Jack and Ianto. He was never just the teaboy to me. *cries*
Owen and Tosh. I always hated how Owen treated her, but when I found out about Katie, I understood; he had buried the woman he was going to marry. And Tosh was never comfortable in her own skin to tell him off (I sort of hated that they writers portrayed her as a stereotypical Asian woman).
A Great Series. I love the modernization of Sherlock; I've always enjoyed watching the other Sherlock Holmes series, but I have to say, this one is by far the best I've seen.
John and Sherlock. I ship them for no other reason than the fact that they need each other...two socially awkward men living in a flat in London.
Being Human. The original is always better. The series aired while I was living in Great Britain and I just couldn't get enough of it.
George and Nina are just so cute. Her snarkiness levels out his sweetness and it works very well for them.
A panel show with an object then to lie to the opposing team. LOVE IT. *Slight crush on David Mitchell and Lee Mack*
A panel show that informs of all the useless and random facts that you never thought you needed to know. SCORE.
