To Those Who Just Saw Their First Episode of House Tonight:

Upon a cursory glance of my flist, I can see that quite a number of you fall into this category. Welcome! The water is very warm here.

If you are in need --

The fanfiction is here and here.

Past episodes are available via bittorrent here.

If you can't bittorrent and would like a DVD or VHS tape of past episodes, just leave a comment or email me and I'll set you up.

I think we agreed on those for the Cupid DVDs (plus Claudia on Stargate, if you still need that). But I'm happy to throw in House as a bonus. Free snark! *g*

Nope, I don't need Claudia on SG1 (and I can't tell you what I really think about that episode cause I almost got lynched the one time I tried to give it an independent review).

But, really???? Cupid and House?!?!?! For just Persuaders - which is, granted, the Gayest Show Evah, but still...........You'll have to come by and see if there's anything in my collection you may want.....(Wonder Woman? Planet of the Apes tv series?)

Nah, no lynching here. I thought it was hysterical, but I know plenty of people who didn't like it, and I'm not sure it'd be nearly as funny for someone not into the show. Still, Claudia + black catsuit = automatic A in my book.

And don't underestimate the power of the gayness of Persuaders! Even if House seriously gave it a run for its money last night. *g*

(Hm, Wonder Woman is a possibility)

See.....and I didn't think it was funny. Vaugely amusing in places. Loved the Jack/Daniel snark. Liked Hammond coming in and taking what he wanted right from under Jack's nose. Enjoyed Daniel's talking to himself/the bad guy. Enjoyed Claudia, of course.

(See, and this is where I'm hoping you protect me from the rabid SG1-ers. I admit I haven't thought this through, so there could be holes in my argument, but I don't want to be hurt for not thinking along party lines!)

Hated, hiccup girl and the (IMO) misogynistic slant of Claudia's character: she fought like a man, but she used her sexuality to confuse him. It felt very much like prostitution to me. And frankly, I thought the homophobic fear of mouth to mouth was completely insulting and offensive. And I get that it was supposed to be a throw-away scene, but it stuck in my head, and gave me a very bad taste in my mouth for the show as a whole.

But House? Now that was a thing of beauty.

But my poor little fannish head's gonna explode, cause of the Spider-Man love, which is only getting worse, and the BSG love, which is growing with each episode, and Lost, which isn't a fandom, but is must-see for me cause I enjoy the pretty (people and locations). And adding House? :: points to self :: Gonna die of the fannish.

See, I was going to leave this alone, but apparently I can't. I agree with everything you said here about the Claudia ep. What I objected to initially was something I thought you said, that you later indicated isn't at all what you meant. Also, I'm just pointing out that characterizing defenders of the faith as rabid is sure to engender annoyed feelings at the least.
