jedi_of_urthComment to this entry and I'll pick up to three of your fandoms. You must then update your journal and answer the following questions:
01: What got you into this fandom in the first place?
02: Do you think that you'll stay in this fandom or eventually move on?
03: Favorite episodes/books/movies/etc.?
04: Do you participate in this fandom (fanfiction, graphics, discussions)?
05: Do you think that more people should get into this fandom?
Doctor Who
01: What got you into this fandom in the first place?
I'd always wanted to watch the old show as a kid, but it wasn't all that available, so when I saw Sci-Fi running add for the new show I had knew I'd be watching it. I wouldn't say I got into fandom until part way through season 1, but I watched it from day 1 (in the US).
02: Do you think that you'll stay in this fandom or eventually move on?
A little of A and a little of B. I've already reached a stage where I can be distracted from it by something shiny. I still love the show, but since I'm not planning to watch it under Moffat's rule, it's already kind of ended for me. I think it will always be a show I enjoy, but I won't always be super fandomy about it.
03: Favorite episodes/books/movies/etc.?
Oh my. BW/PotW, TIP/TSP, AoG/Doomsday, and Turn Left off the top of my head. These are subject to change at any moment given how much thought I give it. Things like Fear Her and Utopia have a way of finding their way in there too.
04: Do you participate in this fandom (fanfiction, graphics, discussions)?
A huge list of fanvids, the occasional fanfic, and I like discussions too.
05: Do you think that more people should get into this fandom?
Always, it's an awesome show with great characters and a great central romance.
Robin Hood
01: What got you into this fandom in the first place?
I saw a couple of people whose opinions I trust on my f-list discussing it so I thought I'd give it a try. Little did I know they were equally discussing the cheese factor, but still, new Brit show.
02: Do you think that you'll stay in this fandom or eventually move on?
I'm pretty sure I'll eventually move on and this will only stand as a show I used to watch. I might watch it again occasionally because I do that kind of things, but I doubt the fandom will last.
03: Favorite episodes/books/movies/etc.?
Walkabout and Treasure of the Nation are my favorite episodes. Of course they're also big on the Guy/Marian scale, but that's not the only reason (it sure doesn't hurt).
04: Do you participate in this fandom (fanfiction, graphics, discussions)?
A few vids (although ideas keep coming), bits of fanfic (like to do more, but my scale problems are hitting here too), would like more discussion but don't have as many people to talk to about it.
05: Do you think that more people should get into this fandom?
Probably. It's not a show for everyone I admit, and it's awkward to try to explain to people why I'm so into a show I freely admit isn't really all that good, but it's fun to have people in the shallow pool that is RH fandom.
The Office
01: What got you into this fandom in the first place?
I stumbled across bots of a few episodes near the end of season 3, can't even remember exactly why now, but I liked what I saw so I sought to get caught us. It's not my most interesting story.
02: Do you think that you'll stay in this fandom or eventually move on?
Although I really like the show, I wouldn't say I'm huge into fandom as is. And yeah, I suspect I won't stick with it forever.
03: Favorite episodes/books/movies/etc.?
I really don't know, it kind of jumbled for me
04: Do you participate in this fandom (fanfiction, graphics, discussions)?
A couple vids so far, but not much else.
05: Do you think that more people should get into this fandom?
Probably. It's a good show, but it's also fairly popular so it's not like it needs to attract huge numbers of new viewers, or is all that likely too at this stage. But if people haven't given it a chance I think they should.
Comment and I'll give you a character to answer the following questions about:
1. Do you like this person?
2. How do you call this person?
3. Which color do you associate with this person?
4. What do you like best about his/her look?
5. Looking at his/her character, what blood type do you think he/she has?
6. What do you want to tell that person?
7. What do you want to do with this person: hug, kiss or shake?
Guy
1. Do you like this person?
As a person, not so much. As a character, oh yeah. For a lot of the same reasons. I think he has a lot of potential for growth and it's fascinating to watch when the writers actually go there. He's a incredibly flawed character, because he doesn't even really know how to try and be more, but I love him anyway. Just wouldn't want to hang around him.
2. How do you call this person?
Guy, Gizzy, just Giz, on occasion Gisborne; Guy of Gisborne when referring to him in more mixed company
3. Which color do you associate with this person?
Black
4. What do you like best about his/her look?
The eyes, the hair, the chest, the general fact that he looks Richard Armitage, here have a picture:
5. Looking at his/her character, what blood type do you think he/she has?
Why would one be able to guess this looking at the character?
6. What do you want to tell that person?
You've already blown a lot of chances at redemption, but i think you still have a chance, but you have be stronger about it.
7. What do you want to do with this person: hug, kiss or shake?
Shake, hopefully some sense into him. Better yet, can I shake him back in time to before he killed Marian?
