30 Days of Meme -- Day 04

Day 04. Your favorite show ever

Tough question. One show that will always be dear in my heart is Blakes 7; it was, really, my first fandom...even before I knew what fandom was. I wrote fanfic for it and with my friend [livejournal.com profile] gmnoonie fangirled discussed every episode. Yes, it had hokey special effects, wobbly sets, often dubious acting, and a budget of 5.49 GBP, but the storylines and writing were wonderful. And Avon was my first fannish crush.

However, when it comes down to it, my favourite show ever, has to be Highlander: The Series. I loved the original movie (and the less said about the subsequent ones the better), but it was with the series that I really became hooked into it and the fandom, despite the fact that I never had any great liking for Duncan MacLeod. The entire mythology of the show, as well as the history elements, have long inspired me, and now...more than, what?, twelve years since it ended, it is still my primary fandom. I RP OCs that have grown and grown well beyond what I could have hoped from them. It's just stuck with me, and I still love it.

Not only do I remember it, but that's the site that started me using the term K'Immies for the bad guys. Plus, I frequented it regularly because you had pics of the guys when there were so few available. *SQUEEEEEES* It was a fantastic labour of love and you have no idea how much I adored you for it and now I can adore you even more. *G*

*blushes* Oh thank you!! *hugs* Yes, it was a labour of love as the K'immies never got enough...and were always misunderstood. LOL! I know the term K'immies was used on the old Rysher forum, but don't know if it started there...just so many of their names started with 'K'.

Btw...love that Kronos icon!

I was never active in the HL fandom until much more recently, and even now I'm more of a lurker than an active participant. However, I thought the term K'immie was brilliant and it worked because of the high number of 'K' names. :)

Thanks! As I've become more adept at working with PS, I've been making more and more icons and entering challenges. That Kronos one is due to my love of the face paint, plus finding a bunch of new kick-ass fonts. :D
