I think that's a great idea -- look forward to reading them! I sympathize with the exhaustion, and I've only been watching this show for a year and half. I can't imagine what it must be like for someone who's had to ride the rollercoaster season after season.
I think I"m a mixture of the three, plus a bit of angry Lex fan. So many disillusioned SV refugees.
I've gotten to the point that I'm distancing myself from SV fandom proper and just dancing around the Clexy edge, when I have the time and attention span. I think it is smart, though, to cultivate our varied interests with each other. I hope it works.
Yeah, I think it can only work to a limited degree. That's inevitable. I suspect we will drift or get sucked back into the vortex that is Smallville. But damn it it is worth a try.
It helps to stop watching altogether. Also to have time to be fannish about other things and a connection with people who are fannish about other things. *shrug* SV folks should form support groups for getting off the show and into safer, less abusive shows.
Yeah, I swear I was having a great time in Big Bang fandom around Thanksgiving. I love reading the TWOP Mad Men threads too. But SV has an amazing sucking power.
Oh yes, we are all awaiting your inner adolescent boy... And I bet you'll have some great things to say about the ridiculous historical innaccuracies, and maybe the odd things they get right.

I love this idea. Positive distractions and new books, comics, and shows are always fun to hear about, read, and watch.
(I'm very annoyed that I haven't watched Spartacus yet, btw. My inner adolescent boy is struggling to be free)
