I wonder...

I wonder, my dear friends, when a man turns genderswap-ish into a woman and in this female body falls in love with a man... Is it het or slash? *scratches head* I mean, the sex will be obviously het but the love part?



According to Pifeedback, Smallville is down 14% and Supernatural "only" 5% from a year ago. In percents, it doesn't look that bad, doesn't it?

Oh, and final numbers:
Smallville 4.1 mil., 1.8/5 Adults
Supernatural 2.68 mil., 1.1/3 Adults, retention rate 65%

At least SPN didn't drop even more like in the previous weeks. Oh, and from what I heard, big parts of two states lost their electricity/CW feed because of a tornado on Thursday evening, so hopefully, next week will be better *crosses fingers*



And another ouch!, this time for Women's Murder Club fans... According to Ausiello:
No additional episodes expected for this season. Future TBD, although one Club member admits, "We're terrified that it's over for us." *sighs*

As it stands, Blood Ties and Women's Murder Club are basically gone. Chuck isn't doing really great in ratings. Heroes and Numb3rs somehow lost me again. Bones and Moonlight are good but not something that I would jump out ouf the window to watch. Terminator: TSCC I have yet to start watching again. With Stargate: Atlantis I'm so behind that I started watching it from the very beginning again. Eureka is pretty much a bust this season because they would have to be already filming to be able to start airing new eps on schedule.

And that leaves what? Supernatural, NCIS and Psych. And Torchwood of course which is British. Well, there is one positive thing about that: I might start watching anime again XD

They have genderswap in the slash comms, but I'd consider it a bit of both.

I'm gonna try watching NCIS eventually.

Where do you find ratings for shows?

Thank you. Now I have to figure out what shelf to use for the genderswap in my GR account XP

I love NCIS. Especially season 3 and up. I adore Ziva David :)

And I find the ratings here (http://pifeedback.com/eve/forums/a/frm/f/63310451). Pifeedback is Programming Insider's forum.

I think it depends on what gender they think of themselves as. If they identify as female, it would be considered het, but if they still identify as male, then slash. :3

I'm about to start reading Gestalt by Yun Kouga and there is a male god who lost a bet and was turned into a girl and he's quite enjoying it XD

That...sounds pretty interesting, actually. XD

Does he turn back in the end?

I would say as long as he is considering himself male in woman's body, it is for sure slash. Is not genderswap for making the hero try things but still still stay more or less himself?

I am so sad for the Women's Murder Club. That one was again one of the good shows.

I'm not sure. I asked because I'm not sure in what shelf to pu Gestalt by Yun Kouga in my GR account. But I think I will go with yaoi manga :D

I'm sad about WMC too. What a shame! :( I might get the books to find out if they catch the Kiss-Me-Not killer.

It's slash, i think, lol
SV sucks now and it deserved lowest ratings

[identity profile] katikat.livejournal.com 2008-02-09 10:36 am (UTC)(link)
Although I bought S1 of SV on DVD, I'm not watching it anymore. Once they turned Lana into a witch, they lost me X(

And I think it's slash too! Thanks, luv :)

Have you ever watched the British series Life on Mars (http://www.bbc.co.uk/lifeonmars/)? It's only 16 episodes, but it's something I think you'd like.

[identity profile] katikat.livejournal.com 2008-02-09 11:47 am (UTC)(link)
I think I have the DVDs somewhere *paws through stuff*

Oh, I have a question. Could you rec an anime or two that's really awesome this season? I'm so out of loop XP

[identity profile] sharona1x2.livejournal.com 2008-02-09 12:08 pm (UTC)(link)
I don't think there are any anime series that have been really awesome this season. I've been disappointed with almost everything, except Gundam 00. It's sad, given how much I liked last season. My favorite series is D.Gray-man, which is up to episode 69 now.
