Old fandoms?

You know how you have old fandoms - fandoms you still feel affection for but aren't really into anymore? How do you feel when that old fandom releases some new material and you happen to (or intentionally) watch it?

I feel a mix of things depending on the situation. Usually a bit nostalgic, sometimes a little sad that I'm just no longer into the fandom, sometimes I feel guilty and like I should try to catch up on what I've missed. Once in a while, some new material will rekindle my interest in the fandom.

I cannot think of any old fandoms that I am no longer into (this is due to inability to remember things, rather than a lack of them) but have really enjoyed re-booting of things as of late. Chiefly, Battlestar Galactica (which, okay, was not really a fandom of mine in the original form but I liked it and am obsessed with the reimagining) and V, which along with Star Wars, was one of my first and continues to be a favorite. I am really enjoying the new V and wish they would just hurry up with the next episodes.

I'm glad to hear that V is good. I loved the original. But I just don't do TV anymore.
