Here's a fandom question I've been wondering about ( Read more... )

Guess what? Leverage starts up again tonight! \o/ The name of tonight's episode is The Experimental Job.

( Blurb about the episode )

It was a close one but Ten is out of the running in the fandom March Madness poll. *sniff* On one hand I did vote for him and I certainly would have been happy with a win, but, on the other, this does keep me from getting caught up in it, wasting much time reading the comments and such. (Though the new round does have Starbuck vs. Buffy and I don't ( Read more... )

I'm back with some more musings on the nature of the Doctor in the story. Specifically I'm interested in the differences between where RTD placed Ten in the story and where Moffat places Eleven. Yes, I'm going there just a little even though I'm mostly allergic to Ten vs. Eleven comparisons! Basically they tend to consist of 'Eleven (or Ten) is so ( Read more... )

I have now seen the Doctor Who Christmas special! \o/ It'll be good to be able to read everyone's discussions about it now. Not that I was fussed about spoilers but I didn't want preconceived notions in my head as I watched ( Read more... )

Huh. It looks like a whole big discussion on the nature of shipping and the definitions of OTP and multishipping broke out today while I was off getting cultured and looking cool sculptures. Or maybe last night when I was drinking margaritas and enjoying Blackpool. *g* At the very least it kicked off while I was not paying attention. Now that I am ( Read more... )

I saw the episode this morning and it broke my brain. *ouch* I've been pretty much been avoiding lj all day so that I could write up my rather meta-heavy thoughts without having them be influenced by everyone else's thoughts. Now I'm off to read through the posts on my flist!

While looking over people's shipping lists, I've noticed that some people strongly prefer canon ships and others like a mixture of canon and non-canon ships. I suppose some might be mainly non-canon shippers, but I didn't see any lists like that while reading my flist. Personally I'm happy to ship canon (Doctor/Rose, Buffy/Spike, Kara/Anders), ( Read more... )
