How much do I love crimsonquills' NCIS stuff? :p Oh so much. But her AUs are particularly fun. Here are my favs:

[ Crash Space ] [ Change of Pace ] [ Put Out to Pasture ] [ The Thrill of the Chase ] [ Yin and Yang ] [ Elements of Truth ] [ Skin Deep ]

And if that gets you into an NCIS-reading mood (like it did me) you ought to check out this list of

Hee, thanks for the recs. I haven't read any NCIS fics in a looong while... I'll be hoarding your recs for the future.

How far along Torchwood are you? Interesting point about the laughing vs surliness of the Brit & Yankee tv shows. I haven't really noticed. But I did notice that British shows are more relaxed when showing emotions in general, and there was one show, Keen Eddie (short lived, unfortunately) where the subtext was so deliciously blatant, I'm not sure to call it that. Heee.

Also, THANK YOU for pointing out the Donal Strachey movies... you and Chlare both got me into it. Too bad it's too late for me to join the tim-don-athon, plus I'm busy as heck, but I'll be sure to check out the entries. Those boys are damned adorable. Aaaahhh.

Hurray! Another Strachey fan :D I do not find it a coincedence that so many Wes fans find Strachey so appealing. Timothy sorta smacks of old school Wes, doesn't he? :p Which is why I will write a Wes/Strachey crossover before all is said and done. I've just got to get my Muse to agree with me.

British shows are more relaxed when showing emotions

That is it exactly! Americans play it much closer to the vest when it comes to feelings and even sex.

I'm only two episodes into Torchwood but I think I'm already hooked :p Very interesting stuff. The relaxed-with-emotions thing definitely holds true for Torchwood. I can't think of any tv show in America that would have had the balls to put a full sex scene, a woman/woman kiss, and an orgasmic energy alien all in one episode. Much less the second one :p
