Am I that obvious?

And yes, I was thinking of Farscape when I wrote that little bit.

Besides SGA and Torchwood?

If it's Torchwood, we could start a support group community.

[meganlynn09.livejournal.com]

Well, actually, I was referring to Torchwood, because I just figured out how much in the minority I really am!

Oh, a comm for that would be awesome.

[mneiai.livejournal.com]

Hm, but what would we call this oasis where we clearly did not talk about the mainstream whatnot of Torchwood? ::ponders::

Sanity?

awww *hugs* that does suck mightily

*hugs back* I mean I like my opinions, I just wish they seemed a little more mainstream in fandom.

Sigh. Yes. I have that experience, too. The only time I've ever ended up with the mainstream of the fandom, it was a waaay subversive reading of the show (which has now become kind of popular, and I don't see it any of the other combinations!).

Let's just say we're "discerning" viewers, shall we?

What's this one?

I really shouldn't get bend out of shape about it because fandom is such a small part of the actual viewing audience, but I can't help it!

This one is Torchwood.

I hate being in the minority. I know it doesn't matter, but I'm a sucker for love. I need to be loved and I need to feel integrated. I'm all the contrary in real life. I'm always in the minority so I guess that's why I need to be in the majority in fandoms.

But I wouldn't give too much thoughts to the minority/majority thing if I were you. There are LOTS and LOTS people in real life that don't post on LJ and forums. LOTS and LOTS of people who think like you.
You're not so much in the minority.

I think the fact that FANDOM is a minority in each viewing audience is a huge comfort. But still, I don't interact with those people, I'm involved in fandom.

Actually, what really gets to me, is when I'm reading something, like someone's review, and I'm stuck wondering if we're watching the same damn show!

I sometimes have the same impression. But I think it's funny. We're watching the same thing but we don't actually see the same thing. It makes you realize how people can be so different.

I hate that. But I'm also used to it, because it's happened to me with the X-files, Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Doctor Who, Torchwood, Battlestar Galactica... I could go on, but you get the point. Doesn't make it any less aggravating, though.

Never has, never will unfortunately.
