All the chatter, all the time.

I was going to post some blathering here about how I've evolved from a big fandom lover to a small fandom lover*, but the fact of the matter is that I don't even care about size of the fandom as long as the quality of the material is ace and other people see it too (and are thinking about writing it). Mostly I just want people to squee with, so.

The Wire people, did that season finale have you crawling behind the sofa too? How is Omar so awesome? How are Kima and Carver so hot? Did you vote for Carcetti for Mayor?

Ugly Betty viewers: Daniel and Sofia? Daniel & Betty? Betty & Henry? How fabulous is Justin? Makeover or keep it real?

Friday Night Lights lovers, is our show really the best show on the air right now or am I just hallucinating? Is Jason Street getting hotter from week to week? How badly is Smash screwing up?

Discuss.


*Size is relative to the number of people watching, squeeing, and churning out meta/fic/recs/etc, not the column inches of your dick or wank.

Oh, Ugly Betty, how I love her and everyone else on that show. I think I would fiercely ship Betty/Daniel if I wasn't so busy shipping Betty/Henry. And yes, Justin is the LOVE.

I am 100% in favor of keeping it real, which doesn't mean that I'm opposed to Betty developing her own style, which I think is a natural process for any young person making their way in the world for the first time. But I'd hate to see her get a makeover that is forced on to her in any way, and I'd hate to see her lose her personal simplicity.

On an additional note, I am truly thrilled that the writers have made me really love everyone, even characters I hated in the beginning.
