*restless*

[bradygirl_12]

Restless tonight. All kinds of story thoughts whirring around in my head. I'll need to meditate before I go to bed or won't get to sleep for a long time.

WHY do I always fall hard for the teeny-tiny fandoms? Shutter Island will be microscopic, I KNOW, and yet I've already written a long story in my head (crossing over with Public Enemies), another small fandom. *sighs*

Why can't I be part of a BIG fandom? Okay, my first fandom was TOS and my first slash fandom was K/S, but damnit, I keep falling for the ones in which I have to scour for fic. If I hadn't started guns_fedoras, I'd still be beating the bushes for PE fic!

WHY must I always fall for sexy men in fedoras? ;)

Welcome to my world. :( My fandom is tiny.. and even in that tiny scale, its a fandom of lurkers. And maybe 3 or 4 people who might write fic. Especially my OTP, which wasn't popular when the series was on the air in the late 90's.

We're misfits among misfits! ;)

But it's so damned frustrating! You want people to see what you see and love what you love, but of course it doesn't work that way. I've never been big on pushing my OTPs and fandoms because I dislike people who enter 'ship wars and try to declare their OTP/fandom the only one.

Lurkers must really be frustrating in a tiny fandom! :)

But.. guys in fedoras. LOL (My fandom is set in the early 40's)

Mmm, I'm lucky that my fedora fandoms (heh heh) have some incredibly sexy guys and gals. :)

It is frustrating. In our case its also very annoying because Remember WENN is not out on DVD and will likely never get an official release because AMC refuses to acknowledge the series exists at this point. *sigh*

I've found some small fandom communities, but I still feel like I'm talking to myself. LOL

Lurkers are very frustrating. there are over 200 people on the main mailing list, we're doing a series rewatch at the moment and all of 3 people are commenting. Maybe once a week. LOL *sigh*

So does mine. LOL There's also sexy Jeffy in a tux. And Hilary in anything she wears... *sigh*

Why is that? Copyright problems?

Nope. They own the show. No one knows why. There's a DVD company that has been talking to them for years to release it, but to no avail. Could be a regime change and the new regime wants nothing to do with it. Going theory is that they've lost or destroyed the Masters and don't want to admit to it.

Creator of the show has basically told us to bootleg at will, of course with the caveat that if we ever get an official release we'd all buy them immediately, which of course we would.

But then it could be that they've told everyone that Mad Men is their First original production. (Not that I am bitter. LOL)

That wouldn't surprise me! Though it's not on the same scale as NASA taping over the first moon landing (wtf!), it's ridiculous in this day and age to lose or destroy the masters of a show.

Very generous of him! :)

Talk about re-writing history! ;)

Me in my Lancer fandom; talk about a misfit among misfits. I'm part of a Yahoo group of 28 people, and I'm the only one who writes brother on brother. It's ridiculous.

But typical.

Oh, that does sound tiny! And people tend to shy away from brother/brother, though Wincest changed a lot of that. Though other shows did feature brother/brother: Simon & Simon was a show that generated a LOT of slash zines back in the '80s and '90s.
