Oh dear

This cannot end well.

I just spent the last 10 minutes watching NCIS clips on YouTube. I'm not totally new to it, thanks to random TV viewing and my flist, but it was so much more fun than I thought it was going to be. The characters are great - McGee is much more fun than I remembered him being, and Abby is all kinds of awesome - and my love for David McCullum still endures. It would be so, so easy to get hooked on this.

Look, brain, I promised Z I'd watch due South, okay? DO NOT WANT ANOTHER FANDOM.

So. Very. Doomed.

I'm going to work on my drabble fest (still open for prompts although expect delays - my comment notifications are non-existent right now) and pretend that I didn't see anything...

ETA: House-fen: If I'm looking to get my House-squee back, and if I happen to have on loan the S3 DVDs, which episodes should I watch. I'm thoroughly spoiled, so don't worry about that, and I want to get my enthusiasm back by watching the good episodes and avoiding the harshing ones. So which should I pick? Help!

Bwhahahahahahahaha!!!!

NCIS is awesome. And a very laid back low-key fandom, here on LJ anyway.

I have trouble keeping my House love up. There are too many episodes where he crosses the line from clever curmudgeon to arrogant ass. I'll like it for awhile, then see one of those episodes, then get annoyed and step away for a bit and then catch a different episode and like it again...

I get the impression that NCIS is a happy fandom, much like the show :) I don't think I get the choice about delving into it.

See, I like House as an arrogant ass, and tend to be drawn more to those episodes. I'm going to follow deelaundry's guide above and try to catch up a little. We'll see what happens...

the wonderful thing about the NCIS fandom is there really isn't shipwars at all. the Gibbs/Ducky people get along with the Gibbs/Tony who still like the Tony/Tim and the het shippers get along with everyone too and there's very little snark or attacking of characters or other ships.
