Dream Desert Island

It has finally happened here on the blog. I have reached 100 posts. I know it may not seem like a lot but for me it is a milestone. I thought I would celebrate in similar fashion to More TV Please! But with a twist. I am going to share with you the five characters I would like to be stranded on a desert island with.

1. The Doctor (Doctor Who)

Ideally, I would love to be stranded on a deserted island with The Doctor. For one thing he is always good for a laugh. Brits usually are pretty funny, even if we Yanks don't always understand their special brand of humor. But most importantly, I'd want The Doctor around because we could have loads of adventures all while stranded on the island. And who wouldn't want to take a trip to Stormcage to meet the Mrs.?

2. Captain Jack Harkness (Torchwood)

Sure, Jack could maybe get his vortex manipulator working long enough to get one or two people off the island, but really he's just there to be really pretty. And sexy. I wouldn't mind having to potentially populate the world with Captain Harkness. In fact, it would be an honor. Besides, he's lived so long he would have endless stories to tell about the universe. We certainly would never be bored.

3. Ziva David (NCIS)

You need a little balance of the genders on this deserted island. And who better to have than kick-ass ex-Mossad agent Ziva David. She's badass and able to fend for herself so survival on the island wouldn't be much of an issue. She'd provide that feminine touch needed to keep things sane and she's just really all kinds of awesome.

4. Leroy Jethro Gibbs (NCIS)

Gibbs is on this list simply because of the compassion he shows for his team. We'd need someone to keep us grounded on this island (even if we are off having random adventures with The Doctor). He'd provide stability and comfort whenever needed. And he could be a hardass when necessary, too. Plus he's up there with the hunting and killing skills. I don't necessarily trust his cooking skills (meat rare anyone?) but I love the guy anyway. Plus, he could totally build us an awesome boat with which to escape the desert island.

5. Willow Rosenberg (Buffy the Vampire Slayer)

This would most definitely need to be season 7 Willow. Preferably near the end when she actually had control of her powers. We wouldn't need her necessarily to get off the island (we have Gibbs and The Doctor for that) but she could entertain us with some magic and who knows, she could somehow mount a rescue party full of slayers. And let's be honest, we need to balance the male-female ratio.
