Stolen from xfirefly9x 

You're stranded on a desert island. The upside? You have a fancy solar-powered ipod that can play video. The downside? You can only choose five episodes (maximum of one hour in length) from five different TV shows.

There are rules: choosing an episode that's only a half-hour long doesn't allow you any more room, and you can't give up one show to make room for a two-parter from another. You have to choose five different shows, and you're only allowed one episode from each.

My List (at this very moment, of course)

1. Firefly - Out Of Gas
2. The X Files - Pusher
3. Stargate Atlantis - Duet
4. Stargate SG-1 - The Other Side
5. Star Trek Deep Space Nine - Trials and Tribblations

I think part of the reason Home always stood out for me is because I'd heard about it getting banned. I react strongly against that kind of thing. ;)
And I kind of enjoy getting grossed out/freaked out, to a certain extent.

Oh yeah, Irresistible is seriously creepy. Moreso because it's the kind of thing that could actually happen.

I have only one thing to say about Irresistible:

"Is your hair normal, or dry?"

*ah! seriously scary shit!*

I, too, don't like banning and often read books just because they've been banned, etc. I like to know what I'm dealing with when presenting an argument against banning and censorship. That said, I saw Home long before I knew about its BBC issues...and yeah..not for me. Frankly, neither is Irresistible most times. Too scary. I don't do anything scary. TXF, in general, doesn't scare me a lick, so I can watch it, but I don't do any horror movies, etc. And I never will. Not for me. TXF is a bizarre aberration for me. Scary is not my style. Esp not scary that can happen. Scary stupid (like SLiTHER) is fine. Scary real? NO.

*sticks fingers in ears and closes eyes and refuses to ever, ever, ever see Silence of the Lambs even those she knows it's a great piece of cinema...never, ever, ever*

That's totally understandable. I like scary, but there are certain things I won't touch, like the Saw movies. I don't like torture.
Silence of the Lambs is extremely creepy, and the book freaked me out even more than the movie.

Wait . . . are you saying Slither can't happen?! heehee

Of course it could, and one day it will. Only it will be a virus or a catastrophic event, or...any number of things.
