I'm stuck writing a paper and so I'm procrastinating and talking about fandom instead.
Snagged this from wildtiger7 who tagged me with Band of Brothers, BSG & The Wire

Comment and I will give you 3 fandoms and then you have to answer these questions

If it is any consolation I've never managed to sit through a whole episodes of Sopranos, and gods know I've tried. The Wire on the other hand took me a few episodes to get into, but by episode four of season one I was hooked. As I said to finnygan I think that series is best viewed as a whole, as an episode a week gets a bit confusing.

I'm a tough audience. ;)

*radiant smile* The glory of BoB can win over even the toughest audience. I think the series main strength is that it focuses on the humanity and friendship of the men instead of generic re-enactments of historical events.

Its also slashy as hell, which helps. Ahem...

(also, if you liked BoB I'd recommend checking out Generation Kill which is based on the Iraq war and is a sort of anti-theses to BoB, but excellent in its own way. )

Probably way too intellectual for me as well

Hee. First of I'd say I highly doubt any of the shows mentioned here are too intellectual for you. Secondly BSG is a lot less intellectual than it likes to think. The whole thing about the series creator talking to the UN just baffled me.

As for fandoms you get ASOIAF (naturally ;) ), Rome and Northern Exposure. (Because more people should talk about that show.)
