'Potential'
A topic for the discussion of Farscape, Smallville, and Due South. Beware possible invasions of Stargate, Highlander, or pretty much any other "genre" (read: sci fi or fantasy) show that captures our fancy. Expect Adult Content and discussion of the Big Gay Sex.
Whitefont all unaired in the U.S. ep discussion, identifying it as such, and including the show and ep title in blackfont.
Blackfont is allowed after the show has aired on the east coast.
This is NOT a general TV discussion thread.
Well, to make matters even more messed up, JA's in a touring production of "A Few Good Men" with Lou Diamond Phillips, and apparently the fangirls are being... difficult. Recording (audio and video) during the performance, taking pictures, etc etc.
Certainly not all of them are being disruptive, but it's clear from what I'm hearing that some are. Which is, you know, tacky, given that there are other people onstage than just JA, and other people in the audience than just SPN fans. Rude, in fact.
That's terrible.
May I just say, that if JA and LDP chose to do a theatrical performance in my hometown, I'm sure that all of us here would be exemplary audience members. You know, just in case they decide to take the show on the road.
THIS is a reason why this is my safe fan zone. Abusing the people that entertain me. I don't think so.Yeah. I like lj, but sometimes it scary and creepy.

Entitlement. Bah. Humans.

(Herein lies my disclaimer that while I do fangirl people like drivers and make sketchey plans to put them in my trunk and take them home? I AM NOT REALLY GOING TO DO THAT. It's talk. And anything otherwise would be creepy. )
Yes, exactly. My zany fangirl plans to keep decorative rock stars in cages are zany fiction to distract me during bad work days. Not Real Plans, in any way, shape, or form.
I don't get what goes through That Sort of Fan's mind. How can they think that sort of behavior is acceptable?
I CAN JOINS PILLOW FORT?

I'm going to need a couple of those cages though, m'kay? Just, you know, in theory...

Specifically prohibited under the Actor's Equity contracts, which I'm sure all cast members are a part of. Not to mention REALLY FUCKING RUDE, and an embarrassment to JA.
I really hate people sometimes.
I have only been to one convention convention, and it was for La Femme Nikita. Dana horrified me with stories about how bad it could get, and in fact Allyson hired me and friends to make sure it didn't get that bad on her watch for her parties ever again.
Let me not lie. Shutting down a rabid over-entitled fangirl from sticking her hands down a actor's pants? Would be such a high point in my week. The whole "I think [James Marsters/Andy Hallett/Daniel Dae Kim] does a bad-assed job" thing melded with "Didn't you have a mother?" was to be my angle.
As it turns out, the crazy fangirls were having their pictures taken with my security team instead. Still, they were well-trained in defending themselves. So not my problem--Allyson's goal was met.

One of them thought I was stalking Kristen and ita, but I really really wasn't.
Honest.
