01. What fandoms did you acquire in 2007?
The Office is the big one. Also, Journeyman (which has now been cancelled I guess… le sigh), Pushing Daisies (win), and actually, American Idol. This was the first real time I’ve watched it and gotten all fandomy about it. So, I’m counting it.

02. What fandoms did you let go of in 2007?
Probably the biggest would be Y&R. It really started to slip in my opinion, and I still catch eps every now and then, but not nearly like I did before. And also Desperate Housewives.

03. What fandoms did you mean to get into but didn't in 2007? Why?
30 Rock I kinda got into, but not as fully as I’d like. Just because I haven’t really had the time, you know?

04. What fandoms do you intend on checking out in 2008?
Well, if the writer’s strike continues, it’s gonna be older stuff probably. I wanna do a rewatch of all the 30 Rock episodes, and now I have Caroline in the City to watch. And I’ve been toying with getting into Weeds, Dead Like Me, and/or Once and Again. So we’ll see. And of course there’s always the hanging idea of X-Files. One of these days, guys. One of these days.

05. What fandoms do you think you might let go of in 2008 unless things significantly improve?
Umm. IDK. Right now all my fandoms are pretty good, so I don’t see myself letting go of any of them. If anything it might be SVU, just because I haven’t been as into it lately, but I don’t think anything’s really gone down hill with it or anything. I just haven’t been watching it as thoroughly.

06. What fandoms do you think you'll never let go of no matter how crappy they get? Why?
The Office and House. House because it’s House, and I love it and Lisa is on it and no matter what, I’m just going to love it. And The Office because honestly, I think it’s hit me hardest of all the fandoms I’ve gotten into and I have so many amazing memories and things associated with it now. Like, the whole reason I even got into it was because of the Fangirl Weekend and Hell and Liss showing me it and flailing about it. And then The Convention obviously, and just how amazing everyone was and how sweet and down to earth and just incredible. So, obviously, that is something I will never let go of, no matter what happens I don’t think.

07. What show impressed you most in 2007?
The Office. Not only the show, but the actors. I know I say it all the time, but I don’t even think that I can ever fully convey the experience of The Convention to anyone who wasn’t there, but they were all just INCREDIBLE. I mean, seriously, those actors, that ensemble, are all just so giving and amazing and sweet, and I honestly don’t have a bad word to say about any of them. And they’re *so* appreciative of their fans. One of the images that will be with me forever is of Phyllis when she walked out at the Today Show and we were all cheering for her, and she just started to cry, she was that overwhelmed by the love. To me that is just… incredible in this day and age. And so even though the show is amazing and hysterical and sweet and just one of the best shows on television if you ask me, it’s really truly that ensemble that impressed me the most. I can’t say enough about them.

08. What show impressed you least in 2007?
Umm… IDK. I liked this season of House so far, I can’t complain about it. I mean, it’s not exactly up to par with the other seasons, but I really liked it. I really liked all my stuff, seriously. I guess if I had to pick one, it would be SVU. And it’s not really anything they’re doing. I just haven’t been as into it lately. IDK. But yeah.
