Lost without Firefly

Doris wants me to watch Lost with her. I've never seen it because I rarely watch any TV at all. I told Doris that I don't want to get into another fandom. I'm not ready to give up Firefly yet.
Same reason that I've never watched Battlestar Gallactica.

For example, I am a loyal BSG addict to the bitter end (despite some of the recent lousy writing)--but it just doesn't inspire me to write fanfic or make vids, icons, etc. Basically, it's an hour-a-week commitment.
Maybe you should take Doris up on her offer. If you think you're getting sucked in, just take a deep breath and enjoy it for what it is. No need to go hunting down the nearest comm. Who knows? It might even strengthen your Firefly-love. :)

Date: 2007-03-05 12:07 pm (UTC)I guess that's true - maybe I can watch them and not get obsessed with them. I guess I don't really know until I do watch them. I did watch Star Trek Next Gen for years -- even recorded all the eps -- but never got obsessed with it, wrote fanfic on it, searched for communities on it. So maybe I could watch or enjoy these other shows without giving up FF.
