Fandom Ennui
March 5th, 2023 09:19 amI'm feeling between fandoms - nothing is grabbing me by the throat and making me think of it non-stop, and making me want to create things.
Not that I haven't consumed media that I've absolutely loved. Half Bad: The Bastard Son and the Devil Himself for instance. Why did no one tell me about this?
But I have no desire to create anything, or read fic. Maybe because 1) it's already been canceled (boo Netflix!) and won't get another season; or 2) it left off on an extremely satisfying note. I'm trying to get through the first book, with the idea of reading the other two, but it's a struggle.
rionaleonhart is watching LOST for the first time, and seriously making me contemplate a re-watch. I have all six seasons on DVD, or I could figure out where to stream it.
On the other hand, my daughter is obsessed with The Last Kingdom, has watched it all the way through at least twice, and relentlessly badgers me to watch.
I should also check out The Last of Us I'm sure.
I need a new obsession!! Or else how can I call myself a FAN(atic)?
I'll take suggestions if you want to pimp something in the comments.
