I’m going a little out there this week, normally you’d see me listing things like favorite characters or situations, but this week I went crazy obscure with my Favorite Numbers!

Since today’s Friday Five was all about Burgers, I thought I’d republish this piece about me eating a Luther, rather than send you to its original location on my old livejournal. Come watch me stuff my face full of meat!

My taste in burgers can pretty much be summed up by Ron Swanson – “It’s a hamburger made out of meat on a bun with nothing. Add ketchup if you want, I couldn’t care less.” If you put quality meat on a bun and don’t cook the shit out of it, it’s delicious. Since, as I’ve discussed before, I can’t handle ketchup or mustard, I don’t get a lot of fast food burgers, so I went a bit out of the box on my picks.

It’s Valentine’s Day here at the Friday Five, and we have our mind on coupling. No, not the British TV show. No, not the NBC remake either . . .

San Francisco Bay Area composer Dren McDonald is announcing the release of The String Arcade, a recording of classic video game music reimagined for string quartet. The crowdfunded album sells for $9.99 as a digital download from Loudr, iTunes, and other channels. In addition, BandCamp offers a $11.99 CD version and free streaming. All profits will be donated to the Alameda Music Project, a tuition-free afterschool program that provides intensive classical music instruction to underserved children in grades K-5.

Well here’s something I’ve never seen before: an animated trailer for a comic book. I’m all about a follow up to X-Men: Battle of the Atom and love me some Salvador Larocca, so I will definitely be checking this out.

Last week, I discussed my least favorite TV characters. So, this week I show the other side of that coin, and list the TV characters that I love.
 
I limited myself to shows currently airing new episodes, because all time favorites would be a very different list.
