Too Many Fandoms

[butterfly]

As complaints go, this is not one that should elicit much sympathy. I should be thrilled that I enjoy such a wide variety of truly wonderful things.

But then we run into the problem. The problem lies not in the fandoms, but in the lack of time I have to explore them all.

I watched the first disc of the second season of Coupling the other night, and, once again, this show consistantly made me laugh so hard that I ended up crying.

Then, I started in on the second season of The Dead Zone. I just saw Cabin Pressure. I'm really enjoying the show. At first, I wasn't sure about AMH's performance, but he's completely won me over. And Walt's voice no longer surprises me every time that he opens his mouth. Also, after Descent/Ascent, I'll so all over the Walt/Johnny. "Take care of our family." Aw.

But I want to start reading the new Wheel of Time book sometime today. And my mom's lending me Thud! (the new Discworld book) when she's done with it.

Too much I want to read/watch/enjoy. Not enough time!

And in unrelated news, George Takei (Sulu from the original Star Trek) has officially come out of the closet.

I'm glad to hear that. More actors need courage to be open about their sexuality if barriers are to come down. Go George!

Thud! is brilliant! I just read Going Postal, too, and loved it. I know what you mean about fandoms - don't spread yourself too thin!

He shouldn't have been nervous - he has a sword!

Oh Coupling rocks. The first three seasons are hysterical. The fourth is good, but Richard Coyle is no longer on the show at that point, and it's a sad thing.

And I feel you on the all the fandoms to enjoy. There are so many things that I love, but not enough time in the day to immerse myself in them.

Told you told you told you told you told you so!

You definitely get 'told you so' rights. I never would have seen the show without A Day in the Life and then finding out about the mature love triangle. And then I would have continued to miss out on this show, which is really such a good show. Marathon-worthy, definitely.
