The Shay and Severide friendship has to be one of my favourite things on TV.

Agreed. Also, I was delighted to see them watching some movie with an artic hurricane, low crab supply and 2 (count 'em TWO) mutinys - because now I know that Shay and Severide are as big of dorks as I am! (I want to watch whatever movie that was they were watching - it's right up my alley!) On a more serious note, I had to watch that scene at the hospital when Severide comes running in and the look of utter despair and heartbreak on his face when the chief holds him back - it makes my heart feel things!

Also, I love Hermann so damn much and now I love his wife too!

It's been a long time since I had a show I had to watch each episode twice, but CF has slowly started to reach that point.

Anyways, I was just catching up on a few LJ things and stopped to read all your CF posts and halfway through reading those, I got hit so hard by a plot bunny, that I had to stop that to start writing my first CF fic. So there you go. I've tagged your stories to read as well!

I believe it's a reality series about crab fishers called Deadliest Catch. I've never seen it but they did make it sound like fun!

Thank you! I've heard of Deadliest Catch but Shay really made it sound exciting! I had no idea it was like that. Maybe I'll have to check it out!

I read your comment first on my phone, and I've been trying to wrack my brains as to what the movie could be, but thankfully sying has the answer! Now if only they'd been into really cheap and badly rated disaster movies, I'd know for sure I'd be best friends with them if they were real!

Same here! It's something I almost never do. But I did it for Generation Kill, and now Chicago Fire - I have it on my ipad, and I've been going to bed with it!

Yay for you writing in the fandom!! You know about chicagofire_tv, right? That and the AO3 Chicago Fire tag are the best source of fic I've found. And I'm actually behind on reading it, thanks to yuletide - always takes me a while to catch up on other reading after yuletide.

Right? I know, me too! I have such a guilty pleasure for that shit.

I don't know that I have done this, watching an episode twice, since the early days of The West Wing. I mean sometimes there were SPN scenes, back in the day, I had to watch twice and sometimes I have to rewatch my favorite 'ship moments on H50, but actually having to watch an episode twice has not happened to me in a long while. I used to watch The West Wing with my mom and she had to work nights, so we would watch it the next afternoon but I just could not wait that long, so I would watch it upstairs when it aired and then rewatch the next day with her and just pretend I hadn't seen it yet! With Chicago Fire, I can't wait to watch it so I watch in my room at night (so I won't wake the whole house) and then have to rewatch again the next day while my sister is at work, on the big screen in the living, so I can see all their facial expressions perfectly. It's becoming a whole thing. :)

I do now! Thanks! It was really the holiday hiatus that did me in. I needed more and there was none on my TV and I was having withdrawal! Now I think I need to write a fic about Shay and Severide in their early days of living together.

I love that you have a whole organised system for rewatching! With me, it's a case of having it on my ipad, thinking I'll just rewatch a little scene, and somehow not being able to stop until I've seen the entire episode!

I can't fault that idea!
