2021 Fandom Review

Dec 23, 2021 23:36

I ganked this from smallhobbit.

1. Your main fandom this year?
Once again, Jeeves And Wooster

2. Your favorite film watched this year?
That's a tough one. I mostly watch old movies on TCM, and I love so many of them it's hard to choose. In fact, it's impossible.

3. Your favorite book read this year?
In Spite Of Myself by Christopher Plummer. A fascinating autobiography, well written and humorous. His main career was classical theater, the movies much less so. He worked with all of the greats and not so greats in England, America and Canada. Great stories about Olivier, Orson Welles, Tyrone Guthrie and more.

4. Your favorite TV show of the year?
Prodigal Son. Runners up: What We Do In The Shadows, Toast of London

5. Your best new fandom discovery of the year?
Prodigal Son Discord. A wonderful group of people.

6. Your biggest fandom disappointment?
Prodigal Son being abruptly canceled. It took the entire cast completely by surprise, and they were heartbroken or outraged.

7. Your TV boyfriend of the year?
Nandor of What We Do In The Shadows. He's tall, built like a brick shithouse, wears great clothes, and is a complete insecure wuss.

8. Your TV girlfriend of the year?
Nadja of What We Do In The Shadows. She's completely unhinged, one of the funniest characters on TV.

9. Your biggest squee moment of the year?
In fandom? Lou Diamond Phillips retweeting my tweets about Prodigal Son after it was canceled.

10. The most missed of your old fandoms?
House MD fandom from back in the day. The fandom skewed older and literate, plus we had Live Journal for discussions and fun. I really miss that. Plus the show kicked so much ass. When it jumped the shark, there was a lot of support for ranting and raving and writing vent fic.

11. The fandom you haven't tried yet, but want to?
I'm wary of getting into a new fandom.

house md, fandom
