Question:

[butterfly]

Is my 'OhmyGod!dueSouthrules!' thing at all annoying? I'm not planning to cut back or anything, but I am curious.

I mean, it's all so new to me. How much it rules.

It's on a par with Buffy.

It has fascinating characters, witty writing, depth, some killer symbolism, and offers up some interesting philosophical ideas (Fraser as ego, Dief as id, Fraser Sr. as superego). It's amazing. Plus, the couple I like ends up together, which hasn't happened yet on Buffy (notice the hopefullness of the 'yet'). Fraser and Kowalski end up going on the big adventure together.

I don't find it annoying at all! I love hearing your opinions about due South. :D

Thanks. That's very nice to know.

You are not annoying about it at all. I actually think it's cute. I think I would be that way too about a new show or anything like this. I mean, not everything has to involve Buffy or *NSync or stuff like that :)

Thanks. And yeah, part of it is the sheer *newness*. I'm all *eee*!

Of course, six years later, I'm still all *eee*! about Buffy, so...

But yes. Good to know that I'm not being annoying.

Hee! Not at all. I loved due South when it was still on. Seriously kick ss show. Love the icon too :)

Coolness. Glad I'm not being annoying.

And thanks. Glad you like the icon. I'm playing around with some other dS images as well. But they're much harder to find than what I'm used to looking for.

I think it's cute :)

I'm a casual DS fan, but I enjoy your opinion on it.

Thanks. Well, I'll just keep on with it, then.

*giggles* Go back in my journal about... oh. I don't know. Um. Five or six months, and you'll see post after post about due South, Callum, and Paul. I went through it too, honey. :D

You're totally making me want to dig the tapes out and watch again. And get the rest of the episodes I can, since I don't have all of the Fraser/RayK eps.

Mmm. Callum.

For the record? Vecchio is okay, but he's kinda... I don't know. Not slimey, but... smooth in a not good way that makes me kinda uncomfortable, if that makes sense.

I'm all about the RayK love, yo. :D

Very cool.

Hmm. I agree. Plus, before Fraser came on the scene, the man was not the best cop. 41 unsolved murders on his desk. Then, after Fraser, the solve rate was like 98% or something? And Welsh seemed to like Kowalski better. I mean, I cannot see Vecchio sitting in Welsh's chair.

See, okay, I'm biased too. I've seen one Vecchio episode, um. Victoria's Secret -- wasn't that the name? Victoria. That broked my heart.

But I still didn't like him. *nods*

He sure as hell wasn't Callum. Guh.

I LOVE that icon SO MUCH.

I've seen VS, the pilot, and Some Like It Red (Drag!Fraser. And he makes a good woman. Not as pretty as Adina, but convincing. Looked like Lucy Lawless.). Well, and Call of the Wild but that was definitely a Kowalski episode.

But yeah, he's... okay. He's very macho Italian cop, from what I've read and seen. Protective and stuff. Treated Fraser like a kid brother (Benny!), which annoys me.

Oh, and thanks. I really wanted to have a due South icon and inspiration struck.

Nah, I'm not so burnt out on DS that I can't appreciate others' obsession *g* Anyway, you're lucky you missed all the "fun" RayK vs. RayV stuff. Somewhere in the Serge archives is a post by Yours Truly ranting about that very thing after yet another stupid blow-up (over something incredibly retarded like the ratio of V to K pics on the randomizer at Hexwood, IIRC). Ah, "good" times...

[butterfly.livejournal.com]

Very cool.

And yes, I'm glad I missed the Ray wars. Although, I am sad that I also missed all of that good discussion. I'll just have to keep talking about it on lj and hope that people respond. Like people are doing now.
