Welcome to my mind
I'd love to review the latest episode of Being Human, but due to CIRCUMSTANCES I haven't been able to watch more than ca. 30 minutes of it. Which was very frustrating to me, especially since I liked the thirty minutes in question. Am still hoping for this to change.
Meanwhle, I'm going through that selfish stage of fannish desire triggered by various upcoming ficathons where I wish the new-to-me shows I discovered in the last half year were more popular and would hence get more fanfic, as opposed to the shows and films I'm just not keen on (or not very), and which have a huge, thriving and writing fandom. Which is to say: I wish people were writing Homeland and Breaking Bad stories in the same amount as Sherlock and Inception fanfic gets written. Also I wonder about insane crossover possibilities, such as:
Homeland/Fringe: an uneasy, tense yet v. v. competent team up for a case between Carrie and Olivia would be awesome. You have CIA versus FBI hostility, and shared common ground of being regarded as an obsessive crazy by your hometeam. Though Olivia after years with Walter Bishop would be able to spot that Carrie actually is both, shall we say, unbalanced, and genius level gifted.
Breaking Bad/Fringe: Walter W. and Walter B. would get on disturbingly well until Walt finds out Walter loves his LSD and his joints by catching Walter in the act with Jesse, which he would find scientifically irresponsible and unprofessional. Meanwhile, Walter would figure out Walt actually reminds him of Walternate.
Breaking Bad/House: I stopped watching House mid s7, so it would have to take place before that, but: through plotty circumstance, Wilson ends up as Walter White's new oncologist. It doesn't take House long to deduce just how Walt earns his living these days, but the idea is so bizarre Wilson refuses to buy it. Meanwhile, Jesse and House's team (any combination of same) commiserate on the trial of working a jerkish genius until Jesse manages to offend Cameron/Thirteen/Martha and they decide Walt's a saint for putting up with him. At which point various druglords and/or their assassins show up afraid that Walt blabbed under the treatment to his oncologist and determined to kill Wilson.
Homeland/Torchwood: post season 1 Brody and Miracle Day era Jack have a one night "I'm still alive/I could die now!" stand after meeting in a bar. Also the MD events confirm Brody in everything he believes. Meanwhile, Esther recruits Carrie.
Breaking Bad/The Good Wife: Saul as the opposing lawyer in Lockhart & Gardner's case of the week, squaring off against Alicia & Diane both. Meanwhile, Kalinda investigates and only the fact Hank is a bit of a racist ass when meeting her prevents the pooling of resources and discovery of the truth about Walt right then and there.
