I found your journal by mistake and started reading it, so umm... hope you don't mind if I comment.
I totally got spoiled by Due South fics, even if I try to avoid it. It's kinda hard when you're barely halfway through season one and most of the fics out there are Fraser/RayK and you're only *supposed* to be aware of Vecchio's existence.
The show is still awesome, even when you know stuff you shouldn't :S
So did I. I mean, I was spoiled about Kowalski showing up before I even knew Vecchio existed, if that makes sense XD Since I first heard about the show through all the SGA writers who've also written DS at some point, and pretty much everyone wrote Fraser/RayK. So I knew there was going to be a RayK at some point. I remember being very confused when reading the cast/character list on Wikipedia and noticing there were two Rays. So then I had to figure out which one was the one I (thought I) wanted. I was kind of disappointed when I realized it was the second one. (The fact that I totally swing both Rays now, kind of even more towards Vecchio, is not the point XD)
Anyway, all the Wikipedia reading and stuff sort of spoiled me a whole lot.
And then I started reading fic and I am so very spoiled for the end of the series. I've at least started on season four now.
It's quite similar for me. I had seen (and loved) Hard Core Logo, with Callum Keith Rennie, and when I looked for some fics I noticed most of the writers had written DS as well, so after a while I decided "why not?" and read one. It's not something I usually do, reading fic from shows I don't know about, but I liked it and didn't really mind being spoiled because I didn't think the show would air on tv again anytime soon (there are some shows from three or four years ago I wanted to see again but never had the chance to, and it's been what? 15 years since DS first aired?). But then it did air again - I found it by mistake one night, lucky me, it was the first ep. - so since then I try to avoid spoilers, even if we both know that's kinda impossible xD.

I want to see HCL at some point. But I think I'm going to finish Due South at first, at least. xp
