So, I know there's a good bunch of you who remember me from years ago, wallowing in joy in TPM fandom.

And then another shiny captured my attention. Mind, the shiny is old - over thirty years now - but oh, my heart, the pitter-patters I had for these boys still made themselves known. It has been SUCH a joy to rediscover them, to look at them with adult eyes and adult thoughts, and step back into the seventies with an adult's perspective.

To that end, to help answer the question, "What does she see in that fandom?", here are some tidbits:

1. Fans voted Starsky and Hutch in as one of the 28 TV Castmates with Perfect Chemistry

2. Check out ancastar's "Classic" vid showcasing that chemistry - no lyrics, simply clips with audio that spell it all out for you, beautifully put together:



3. To take it to a further end, my own slash pimp vid:



4. Fancy art? So many wonderful artists, but my favorite is enednoviel's work:

Of course, this is my favorite piece *G*:



5. And the fic! There is SO MUCH of it. Some excellent, some great, some good, and as always, some that just doens't cut the mustard (I'm sure it's just me who's anal about wanting to read fic that's at least been proofread for, I don't know, periods at the ends of sentences...) but the sheer AMOUNT is astounding. See my page HERE for links to the archives and various personal sites.

6. And to make me happy all OVER, I have both Con*Strict and SHarecon coming up. *goosebumps* YAY!
