Year-end fandom meme

Dec 28, 2021 13:10

Sure, why not?

1. Your main fandom of the year? Definitely 12 Monkeys, in terms of time and interest, though I continue to produce very little in the way of fannish content.

2. Your favorite film you watched this year? Dune

3. Your favourite book read this year? I'm still not finding much time to read. I did enjoy One Last Stop and The Invention of Wings.

4. Your favourite album or song to listen to this year? Been listening to lots of jazz and chill house music as background, but not a lot intentionally. However, I got mildly obsessed with a song called "I Found" (Amber Run) and have like 8 versions of it. Also been listening to Michael Malarkey a ton.

5. Your favourite TV show of the year? Ted Lasso

6. Your best new fandom discovery of the year? Mostly rediscovering old favorites. I spent a couple of months wildly obsessed with Justified (again). Was it this year that I watched Spartacus for the first time? That was great. (Thank you, 
destina !) And I've been fannish enough about Ted Lasso to read a story here and there. (Pretty much entirely Keeley/Roy/Jamie and Keeley/Rebecca)

7. Your biggest fandom disappointment of the year? Hmm...I think everything was pleasantly undisappointing, in general! I really liked Black Widow, and Dune, and the Matrix movie. Season 2 of Ted Lasso was awesome. Dexter: New Blood is okay, but my expectations weren't high, so not disappointed I guess. If I had to pick one, it'd be S3 of Lost in Space. I'd been really looking forward to it, but only found myself mildly interested. Never mind, scratch that, after squeeing with Destina about the stuff that was great, I've decided it was exactly what it needed to be, and I was just grumpy that day. :D.

8. Your fandom boyfriend(s) of the year? Raylan Givens (Justified) and Roy Kent (Ted Lasso)

9. Your fandom girlfriend(s) of the year? Jennifer Goines (12 Monkeys) and Rosa Ortecho (Roswell, NM)

10. Your biggest squee moment of the year? Pretty much all of S3 of Roswell, NM. Especially the Malex parts, of course, but also, my Rosa & Isobel & Maria feelings! My found family feelings! Oh, and that photo of Brett Goldstein and Phil Dunster cuddling on the red carpet, wherever that is-I can't seem to Google the right one at the moment.

11. The most missed of your old fandoms? I didn't have time to miss anything, honestly, just my own participation in them. :) But feeling nostalgic for ST:TOS for reasons.

12. The fandom you haven't tried yet, but want to? Nothing new. Just want more time/inspiration/motivation to participate in the ones I already have, especially-

13. Your biggest fan anticipations for the coming year? STAR TREK STRANGE NEW WORLDS, BABY! (and also Disco S4 which I haven't started yet.)
ETA: Looking at my fandom bfs and gfs for the year, I am laughing, because wow, do I have a type in both cases!
