Hey fandom, what's up?

[timepiececlock]

I've been away from Livejournal fandom for a bit, so this is me checking in. What's going on?

What shows are on, what shows are in waiting? Has the new season of Avatar started yet? Has the third season of Doctor Who ended? Is Veronica Mars as good this season as last season? (be vague, no spoilers.) Is BSG still going strong, or has it again suffered a massive descent into suck like season 2? Has Derrick on Grey's Anatomy finally been eaten by a grizzly bear?


Anything crazy and fandom-specific happened yet? Any actors breaking from their signature roles? (besides Hermione of HP, someone on my team told me about that.)

Any new OTPs that have totally taken over your entertainment and internet hours? Any fanfic recs I just absolutely must know about?

Anything new in your personal lives, like marriages and babies and stuff? I'd love to hear any and all of it.


BTW, keep an eye out for news about the 100 Homes In 100 Days project in Mississippi, which kicks off on Monday and will be receiving considerable media attention.

I've been hearing rumors that Veronica Mars has not been confirmed for a season after this one, and that this season sucks, but at the moment I have no way of verifying it.

The Avatar community was going crazy a few weeks back with rumors of season 3 starting everwhere from March 17 (which didn't happen) to September 19 (which had people threatening to abandon it). The most recent date I've heard was sometime in late April, but this is apparently from IMDB and therefore not trustworthy.

However, some legitimate spoilers have apparently started surfacing (apparently Mike and Bryan did a press conference or made some statements that got out or Lord only know what) again, so I would take this as a good sign that the next season may be starting soonish.

(You were still here during the whole "School Time Shipping" thing, right?)

Apparently Meredith Grey died...and then came back to life. This made me sad. It was also the same night the OC ended.

There's a new chapter of "The Window" up...other than that, I don't think I've read too much mindblowing fanfiction recently. katara_zuko is in the dying days of a "you talk in your sleep" challenge that produced some pretty funny stuff, but it's mostly been stumbling over the occasional one-shot.

I met someone who has the DVDs of Firefly, and might actually get around to seeing it before the end of the school year. If he can be convinced to lend them out for more than 30 seconds at a time. *eyeroll*

I'm sure you're having a fantastic time, so stay safe and be sure to share with the rest of us! ^_^

The legitimate spoilers that was mentioned in the press conference, are the exact same spoilers that were released last year exactly a day before season two started. Basically, nothing new has been announced on Avatar and still no air date for season three.

update: recently, someone wrote into Nickelodeon, requesting to know when the show would be airing, and posted the response they got over at DH or Avatarspirit or one of those places, which said the new season wouldn't be airing until the fall.

it's hard to say if they didn't fake the whole thing or not, but it's plausible
