Day 12:  What the most important thing for a new Jem fan to understand

See this little girl here? Her name is pronounced “Deer-druh”, not “Deer-dree”. It’s best that you know this now as opposed to letting it surprise you while watching.

Day 25: Your dream cast

So, I don’t have many/any fancasts for the, uh, good guys of the series, but here we go for the Misfits!

Kesha as Pizzazz. Good call, casting agency! (Via EW.)

Lady Gaga as Roxy. Italian-American punker is Gaga’s wheelhouse. She’d kill it. (Via Business Insider.)

Janelle Monáe as Stormer. She can be edgy or sweet—or edgy and sweet. (Via the Grammys website.)

Santigold as Jetta. They emanate similar IDGAF energies. (Via digboston, via Wikimedia Commons.)

And bonus:

Raeen Roes as Techrat! (Via pngyuen83, via Wikimedia Commons.)

Day 10: Riot or Rio for Jem/Jerrica

Honestly? Neither. Neither Riot or Rio are exactly... great boyfriend material.

That said, Riot/Jemerrica has potential. By the end of the series, Riot’s started to grow as a character. He can be ✨Riot✨ without being a haughty jerk. Rio, on the other hand, is still a jerkass who makes Jerrica afraid to reveal her secret. That is not a good thing.

Besides, Riot’s gone along with stranger stuff than a businesswoman moonlighting as a pop star. He’d probably be really into it—and if the other Stingers were to find out, so would they!

(Aside: how is it that both Riot and Pizzazz managed to grow as people by the series finale, but Rio stayed the same? This is who we’re supposed to be rooting for? Sheesh.)

Honestly? Plushies. And I’d like more than just Jem and Pizzazz, please 😭

Day 6: A scene that made you laugh:

From “Midsummer Night's Madness”: Jerrica: “Oh, Rio! I left him with Riot!”

[Gilligan Cut to Rio and Riot about to duke it out in front of the crowd]
