So it's been a bit, partially on account of me having generally been disappointed in recent SPN episodes and having not written very much as a result. (Drawn a good deal, oddly enough, but having no working scanner makes it difficult to share those.) I skipped 5x07 all together, but I watched last week's episode and was generally amused by it. Dean not so secretly watching Dr. Sexy, MD makes me grin, even though I want to write Dr. McSexy, MD, just for the sake of my Grey's continuum.
As a semi-meme though, I've a challenge for you! I've chosen my favorite fanvideos (at least for this moment in time - my favorite does tend to change from minute to minute) for three fandoms, which you can see below. Your mission, if you choose to accept it, is to post a comment with a favorite fanvideo of your own. Any fandom accepted, none shall be rejected. :D
Okay, mostly I was scanning MVs and generally being amused and wanting to be amused by other MVs that I might not have come across before.
In no particular order:
Supernatural: Always Keep An Edge On Your Knife

The thing about this video is that it's ridiculously catchy, even if it's not my normal preference in music, and the vidder actually managed to capture at least one scene from every episode between 1x01 and 4x14. Plus it just works out well, in a highly fun and amusing sort of way. It seems to get ABSOLUTELY NO LOVE, hence my need to promote it here.
NCIS: Hey Ya

This vid pretty accurately portrays why I like NCIS. It's quirky, fantastically timed, and does a great job of portraying all of the NCIS main characters, particularly Tony, Ziva, Gibbs, Abby, and McGee. Even if you don't watch NCIS, I recommend watching it simply for the win of some of the oneliners included.
Avatar: Fighting Dreamers

I don't watch a lot of anime these days, and while Avatar is very much not anime, it's very obviously inspired by anime and is, IMHO, the best kids show playing right now. The series itself is over, but Aang, Katara, Zuko, Toph, and Sokka are all still interesting and viable characters. Avatar also had the benefit of being the first show - cartoon, children's, or otherwise - in ages that I'd come across where the girls were just as badass and well developed as the boys. This vid makes me smile because it showcases that high level of badassery, from each of the involved characters while still maintaining the sense of glee that made Avatar so much fun to watch.
Extra special bonus mentions!
Buffy vs. Twilight:

Because it made me laugh. So very, very much.
Supernatural: Like A Boss
Click to view
Same! Mix the Like A Boss video with Dean Smith and you have this vid. If you know Like A Boss, you know that it's full of wrong and this vid set to it matches every aspect of that while perfectly blending things with the Supernatural world.
