>>>> But yes, I think after six months once the fandom's no longer so active I will feel a...gaping hole. BSG was why I got and LJ, and how I met most of the people I know here. And I don't have a fandom lined up to take its place. I mean...I never do. When I skipped out on TXF, I fell into Farscape. When Farscape ended, I fell into BSG. I'm not sure where I'll "fall" next, but I hope I fall into something because...I'm a fan. There's always Star Wars, but that's more something that's always continuing in the background because of the various release schedules, etc. Though I notice that I have been spending more time in that world during this ludicrous year-long hiatus. So we'll see... <<<<
Its really intresting the whole transistion people have to make between fandoms in order to remain sane. When One one dies/finishes Otherwise it would be so easy to become one of thoughs ranting madmen who must tell the whole world that so and so tv show from years back is the best thing in the world. Plus if you dont move on you would never have a new seaon/ story revaltion to luck forward to.
There are a fair few good shows on tv but lucky every once in a while an amazing one comes along to get kinda lost in.
I love star wars too, used to almost to the point of exclusivity. You know reading tech specs of y-wings and pouring over novels and comics to get the slightest detail on Boba Fett (WOW condor down!) But being so envelped in just one thing you really let yourself for a fall when your so close to just one thing. You just get bored if you try and read, play, watch and buy every little things that comes out.
Makes me wonder and fear how easy it may be to get lost in the Star Wars TV series if it ever comes about and if its any good at all.
