The problem with watching episodes in massive catch-up bouts is that I find myself forgetting what happened in the individual episodes. It really is like ODing on something: the little details blur into the overall experience. And I find myself losing the little bits and pieces rather than getting it all to seep into my brain.

But I'm definitely enjoying this series. Lots of food for thought, meat for grist, and...maybe a few ficlets?

I'm curious about the fic in the fandom. Is it a very ficcy fandom? Are the fics vignettes and romance, or more action-adventure/drama/character? Is it mostly shippy? Case-fic? Is Olivia the main character in the fic, too? I don't know who else it would be, to tell you the truth - Peter's not in the action enough, and neither is Charlie - the show follows Olivia very specifically and everyone else is supporting.

And where do I find icons for Fringe? Up to midway through S1 by preference, or else non-spoilery. This is going to be one of those fandoms where I have to be really careful of spoilers, because one spoiler could really wreck the arc.

It's been such a long time since I've been in Merlin fandom, it's a little weird to come back in during the middle of the hiatus and start reviewing the episodes.

They're all a bit of a jumble, actually, thanks to:
a) sketchy watching while quilting,
b) watching a whole bunch all at once,
c) watching them over the last couple of months,
d) watching about five different shows and trying to keep up with any/all of them at any given time.

So this may sound like it was put together by rabid monkeys drugged out on cocaine. It wasn't, of course. But it might sound like it. You've been duly warned. Read at your own risk. (And kids, don't do drugs: become a rock star and they'll give them to you for free! ps. Bill Nighy is made of awesome.)

"This is the part of the day I love! I know there's something bizarre out there, I just don't know what it is."

I have to say, although I probably wouldn't say it quite as...gleefully as Walter does, there's a certain amount of truth in his words here...

Am still enjoying this show, even through the horror aspects. I'd kind of like to write fic for it, except that, once again, I don't know that I could do the epicity of the show justice. It's very epic.
