Help Me Obi-Wan! fandom rec request

Jun 23, 2016 01:10

I finished up the last of this season's NCIS eps today and with the end of POI I am officially without an active fandom(meaning one with new canon) in forever? I was a fan before I knew what a fan was and I don't think I've ever not had something I was watching or reading ( Read more... )

I think I'm terrible in the rec department as all my new interests appear to cultivate small to zero fanworks. However I'm inspired and will probably at some point write in them. Two shows I adore that do have a green light for S2 are: Shadowhunters and Magicians ( ... )

Thanks.

I've been wanting to try Orphan Black but I'm kind of afraid of it and figured I'd wait till they were through to see where they wind up.

I actually do Marvel and Reboot and good grief so many fandoms that I know I'm being greedy but I miss the pleasure of being really in love with a fandom and the canon as well as enjoying the fic.

Shadowhunters is the Cassandra Clare thing right? Mortal Instruments?

Okay and my completely irrational refusal to watch Magicians is because it's my Leverage people and it's like, if I watch that, Eliot won't be Eliot, he'll be some other guy and I'm just not ready for that. I know it's been 4 years -- still not over it.

Sorry, I'm hard to shop fandom for. I keep hoping there's something out there I've completely overlooked.

I only do TW with Derek anyway, never watched the show so I can live in whatever TW universe I want-lol. Looking forward to your TW stuff.

Yup Shadowhunters is the CC thing- still I enjoyed it and can go places because of all the tropes she’s written into it, tis crazy - another reason it’s so cheesy! However the fandom life I've seen its like TW was in the beginning - nothing but tweensters, so it’s a wait and see if any quality fic comes out - or you know I write my own (of course that’s debatable on quality *g*). Also I have seen a few good Malec vids on YT ( ... )

I would recommend The Musketeers, but be warned it is a limited run - 2 series' already done and this 3rd is the final one.
Having said that it is a lot of fun to watch and there's plenty of play room for 'ships of all kinds. Plus it's full of women in corsets and men in leather (also occasionally women in leather). There's a fairly active fandom, plenty of fanfic (mostly on AO3); I haven't started writing in it yet but I'm giving it serious consideration.

Oh! I'm actually more interested knowing it's a limited run. I seen pics but haven't really delved. Putting it in my DVD queue now.

Thanks!
