Wwwwwoahly crap, new fandom alert. I have been thoroughly, utterly and completely converted to Sports Night, to the intense and all-encompassing manly love between Casey and Dan, and to Dan himself who is the most adorable character ever. The support cast is absolute love, they've pretty much cut out the canned laughter by now (THANK YOU), Charlie has two daddies and WILLIAM H. MACY is in it! Oh my GOD, right?

*glees ever so much*

I have read a lot of fanfic. A lot. But it seems like the archive where many of the stories I've seen recced resided has disappeared, so I haven't read nearly enough. Not nearly. I need more.

Tell me some of you recognise the greatness of this show and the staggering power of Dan and Casey's love? And that you can tell me what to read? Please?

I am and forever will be a slasher. It's sad but true.


Pee Ess, OH MY GOD GMAIL STOP BEING A WHORE! SERIOUSLY! I WILL HUNT YOU DOWN AND GLUE EVERYTHING TO YOUR DESK!

Also: it sucks that the old archive of fabulousness died, but there is [livejournal.com profile] snarchive, which is trying to get it back.

I LOVE HIM SO MUCH IT IS KIND OF PATHETIC.

On the other hand, him giggling really is terribly cute. As is Dan, omg - reading fic and I am just falling for Danny all over again. Like, repeatedly. I want one!

My former roommate will slay me where I stand if I do not rec Even Sugar Peas Run Out of Snap. She was the one who got me started watching Sports Night, and even if I'm not as big of a fan as she is I know enough to rec this one fic. ^^;;

I've owned the entire series on DVD for a long time.

I also wrote fanfic once upon a time, and considered apping Casey.

The actor who plays Dan Rydell is from Baltimore, hence any and all references to Baltimore and/or the Orioles in particular.

Welcome to the abyss, my friend.

Hunh.

There was a Dan. Mal threaded with him. Did he get purged?

I have absolutely no idea but if there is I am Very Glad. Seriously. I have so many characters begging to be apped right now, and I can't even play the ones I have. I miss Aziraphael.

I hear you homie, trust me. Mal will forever and ever be my One Twue Wuv though. Until I kill him horribly and run from fellow FF-tet people screaming for my life.

Sports Night is LOVE. Casey/Dan is UBER LOVE.

Have you read anything by Shrift?

I've never come across Sports Night fanfiction- but my whole family watched that show religiously. ^_^ One of my dad's favorites, and he's usually so picky about what he watches. (And, that group of writers went on to work on West Wing. Same sort of snappy dialogue there!)

So- with me finding that Sports Night is out on DVD, I know what I'm getting my dad for his b-day, finally. (And not like the whole family is going to be happy with this gift as well!)
