Important Thoughts to Share
I've seen lots of new Wicked (the Musical) merchandise to promote the third book in the series, which bugs me for exactly the rational reasons it should: the musicalverse and the bookverse are DIFFERENT FANDOMS. Stop trying to make fetch happen, promoters! IT'S NOT COOL.
That said, I kind of want to write something in Wicked fandom again, although I don't know what, since that fandom made me all raptor-y to the point that I was originally concerned at the presence of KChen on Pushing Daisies.
Pushing Daisies should have a Halloween episode where Olive and Chuck are Glinda the Good Witch and the Wicked Witch of the West. If not, someone should write me that fic.
I started a Pushing Daisies/Muppets crossover, and then abandoned it. I feel I should go back to it before the new season starts.
I bet if Ned were sued for killing someone, he would be represented by Crane, Poole & Schmidt. That would be wacky. And awesome. And, since Chi McBride's part of the DEK family? PLAUSIBLE, even.
I honestly believe that being on Real World would be even worse than being on Big Brother. You do BB, and if you want to be, you're done; you do Real World (or Road Rules, for that matter) and you're a whore for MTV for life. Also, Big Brother episodes focus around, say, challenges, or giant fights, and Real World episodes focus around orgies in the hot tub.
(BB live feeds focus on that. But that's totally different.)
That is also what tells me fandom needs more Real World AUs. Watching random RW eps (it's for SCHOOL, okay?), I am hard-pressed to come up with a fandom that would not benefit from an AU like this.
Seriously. Today I watched the Slap Heard Round the World from Seattle, the shower threesome from Miami, the Mardi Gras episode of New Orleans, and . There is not a single one of these which would not make an awesome fic.
(I feel like there's something to be said about the way that the people from Real World casts refer to the characters from the show, but I think you've all probably heard more than enough of that from me.)
The hair on Real World in the nineties was really atrocious. And large. And atrocious. But I have to admit, I see the clothing, and aside from the shoulder pads I'm just like "That looks so comfortable! I want that!" Until, you know, the later seasons. Where they just walk around naked a lot. That is less comfy.
In conclusion: people from Elizabethan times wore funny outfits.
I thought you might want to know.
