Wanted: One fandom. Well-used...

[jasmasson]

I need a new fandom to make me happy. I’ve got JoBros but the problem is that SPN has completely spoiled me, because it was such a huge fandom, with new fuel for the fire weekly for most of the year. There was always something to keep me going, but JoBros is so small and I was too late t be a member of CUF, so I don’t get a lot of delicious JoBros goodness delivered to my flist. :(

How’s fandom life for you? What shall I go into to supplement my JoBros love? Fandom specifications, 1) A strong, interesting relationship with slashy subtext (that’s just the way I roll) 2) I like a little angst, but not unrelenting – just enough for a good level of intensity 3) I must find at least one of the ‘ship characters very, VERY attractive.

Candidates for me right now (and why I’m not in really in them yet) are – Leverage (perhaps not intense enough for me?), Merlin (see Leverage), NCIS ( I’m not really very attracted to any of them), White Collar (see NCIS – I KNOW! He’s so PRETTY! I dun understand why my hormones are not cooperating!!), Criminal Minds (too ensemble based – none of the real relationship focus that I need), Sherlock Holmes (I need more fuel than a one-off film).

SPN has totally spoiled me *pouts*! What I really need is to just go back to 2006! Then I could be squeeing to my heart’s content! ;)

Help me, Flist! What should I get into?

My problem is this - you're looking for one great big fandom. But right now, sprawling fandoms that are still made of awesome are hard to find, imo. So you should totally fill in the space with a handful of smaller fandoms which are well written, well acted, and have fandoms that still remember how to act like human beings. Especially since there's crossover potential between all and any of them, and also with SPN if you're so inclined.

Leverage. White Collar. Justified. (And to lesser extents, Burn Notice and Castle.)

All smart tv, all with conmen/thieves/and the feds who hate them. Justified especially would crossover very, very well with SPN, and it's only 4 eps in so far (it airs on Tuesdays).

You're so right, lovely, it would be much better to spread out fandoms, so as not to be completely dependent on one (and then bereft when it screws you over ;)

Leverage is SO SWEET - I enjoy them a lot. The OT3 is delicious!

Leverage's OT3 makes me happy in my secret geeky/angry place, it really does. :D
