Wow, I'm floored. My Sports Night DVDs arrived. I ordered them last Tuesday from Canada! The delivery date was set for Jan. 31th 2009! And they are here. Now. Instead of a month, it took the box set not even a week to arrive! I'm... floored. I have no words. Wow!

Also, and now I will be very rude, I have had fucking enough of people who watch Supernatural - I can't call them fans - complaining about the series being either a Dean!show or a Sam!show. For Christ's sake! There are stories that need to be told and sometimes it's Dean's story, sometimes Sam's. I didn't complain when at the beginning, one of the main storylines was Sam going/not going dark. I won't complain now that Dean's discovering what role he plays in the whole Heaven vs. Hell thing. I like both storylines, evil!Sammy and angelic!Dean, or what do you want to call them. Why does it have to be the one or the other? *hands* Like children, really. I still like the show but the fandom is nuts! X(

SPN's not the only fandom that does that. People are slashing the Petrelli brothers in the Heroes fandom, and there're loads of fanfics pairing the brothers Faramir/Boromir, and the elf twins in LOTR. Not saying it's right, but hey, everyone has their kinks. To some, slashing male on male is already a deep, dark kink. Just saying.

You know, there are shows where I really don't see the slash/incest. For example, I can't see any ship between Nathan and Peter. I just don't see it. With SPN, it's the setting that makes it believable for me - I mean, the Winchesters basically lived in a closed society of three where Sam and Dean where the only ones even close in age. And the fact that John kept hammering the point of not trusting anybody but your brother... that could have twisted something in an already hurt child's brain... For me, it's just another interesting layer added by the fandom.

I'm a bit squicked by Nathan/Peter pairing, because to me Nathan looks old enough to be Peter's father! But to each his own. And you know, liking Wincest doesn't mean I'm condoning incest in RL. It's fiction after all, and while you're at it, how about those stories on murders and such? And also, not all in the fandom are into wincest!
