Project QAF - 104

Despite current computer problems I managed an update. Luckily, I already had the pics and all the rest of it saved; I was just missing the creative part.

This was the first ep I ever watched. It hooked me right away. I watched a few more and then backtracked to start from 101.

Was it when it first aired on TV? I wish I'd have found this show earlier. I would have loved to see this fandom before fans started to drop out...

It was before S3 aired it's repeats post season.

My daughter's best friend loaned her the first season dvd's. Since my daughter had already watched 1, 2, & 3, she convinced me to sit down and watch with her starting with 104. I was a huge Sharon Gless fan, and I liked Hal Sparks -- both of whom are in this ep a lot.

I'm also a big soap junkie, so the triangle of Brian, Justin, Michael was fabulous as was the heat between B/J. I was hooked.

Watched S3 as it aired with repeats and continued watching as eps aired from there.

I friended you, hope that's OK-

I was also late to the fandom, and I am always looking for new people to share the QaF love with! :)

Thank you. Before I found this fandom and other people who seem to love the show as much as I do, I thought something was surely wrong with me because I was totally obsessed with it. But it looks like I'm not the only one, so I guess I'm still sane.

And of course I friended you back. BTW, your journal is so pretty/happy/sunny.

ITA!!! When I found this show back in late 2008, I cound not find anyone in my RL who knew about it; I thought I was losing my mind. Once I found the LJ fandom, I felt 100% better, LOL!

**best show ever!**
**hugs you because you understand**

Same here. And all the more I talk to members of the fandom I think we made all the same experience. Maybe if we had known about QAF since the beginning we had grown up with it and gotten used to this mostly unknown obsession. But seeing it, like me, just years after airing, it was like a boom. Like a mega crush. and we had to find our minds back first. This done we looked around and thankfully there are more of us...And I think this guilty pleasure from the beginning has become part of our rl more and more but in a good and acceptable way. :-)

When I saw this ep the first time I was shocked. No that is not enough of a word to describe my feelings. I noticed that I had never thought about being gay before. I mean really thought. I never saw this problem in such an intensity. It is not the same just to hear or read about it. The reaction of the people round Justin, it makes clear a lot. I'm thinking about this so many times since then

Interesting that you see insecurity in Justins eyes.
Maybe not insecurity but need for reassurance. It's like he wants Brian to be proud of him.

Oh, and you're so very welcome. I won't stop as long as I'm having so much fun with it.

Obsessed? This word just gives a slight description of what I am. I am an addict. My life has changed since I found them. I downloaded them in July, 2010. Can you believe it? Only 4 months ago. I spent 3 sleepless nights and four days to watch all seasons at once.And I am here (though not queer:)).

I never found this fandom unti QaF ended in 2005

Thanks. I'm glad you like my little ficlet.

I like Ted and Brian's connection, and later, friendship. I wish there was more fic out there with Ted's perspective on Brian. But I've only ever found one, if I remember correctly.
