LOL I get it.

I was never super into RPF though some fandoms I participated in had popular RPFs.
But also, I remember when I was really into TGWTG/CA, and I'd be so curious about creators who began dating IRL and made it public.
I never publicly speculated on who dated who or if Person A and Person B ever hooked up or why they broke up, but NGL I read other people's speculations and/or fics.

I did this with Harry Potter. It wasn’t worth it.

Well, people often conflate objectively good with personal taste. Of course, it is entertainment and if they were really entertained, then it did its job well for them and it is, by that measure, good. And there are many ways to enjoy a show that's not well-written - you can like the characters, setting, and certain interactions and not think much of the episode plots; you can like the possibilities that blossom in your head when you think of the show; you can like the feeling that it gives you; you can like it for its faults because sometimes watching silliness and cheesiness are just fun; etc.

I watched the first episode, and it just seemed like a children's/family show, like a Hallmark movie or something. Kind of formulaic and sentimental and on-the-nose or something, IDK.

I genuinely like bad shows sometimes, so while I didn't get into Merlin I can understand those who did. However, I agree on the meta. For every crappy show I love I always see such amazing thoughtful intelligent meta and I just goggle because are we even watching the same (loveable entertaining) trash?

(Anonymous) 2025-01-14 01:52 am (UTC)(link)
I wanted to like Merlin. Everybody was so pretty and had fantastic chemistry! But it was sloppily written, plotted, and paced. The lapses in logic and characterizations were glaring and hard to ignore at times...

But everyone was soooo pretty! I kept going back every time I saw an edit of Merlin/Arthur eye-fucking like no one else was in the room! I hoped the show got better, but it never really did.

(Anonymous) 2025-01-14 02:28 am (UTC)(link)
Good, bad, I don't care, I thought it was wildly enjoyable. Everyone I know who liked it had a story of the moment they stopped going "But...but..." and just gave in to the silly fun.

(Anonymous) 2025-01-14 03:06 am (UTC)(link)
I remember when the fandom for this show was still fairly active, and it seemed very, very ship-centric. That probably explains why people overlooked a lot of the show's flaws. Fandom is extremely forgiving so long as there's the right tropes and the right pairings.

(Anonymous) 2025-01-14 04:17 am (UTC)(link)
I think some people conflate the fun they have in the fandom with the quality of the show. Early Supernatural gets this too - lots of people say, "It was good up to [whenever they quit]." But it wasn't a good show, not even at the start! It was sometimes a compelling show, but not good!

I am someone who can easily overlook bad writing for a fun time, but Merlin wasn't one of those shows for me. Which is a shame because the fandom seemed quite active and fun but I just could not get over how bad it was, it wasn't fun-bad for me just bad-bad, and I'm not some objective barometer of ~quality or anything, fucks knows there's absolute shlock I adore, but I couldn't click with this shlock sadly.

(Anonymous) 2025-01-14 03:39 pm (UTC)(link)
fandom in general is really bad at equating 'i like this' with 'this is good' when that's not really how it works, and i'm not saying we all need to be watching high quality works or whatever, like what you like, but our enjoyment of something doesn't mean it's actually a good show/movie.

but i also think something being enjoyable has it's own value in the media landscape and realistically most shows/movies are going to be fun over objectively good and that's absolutely a-okay. it's hard to write something good all around so i think enjoyable is a good line to hit.

I loved the supporting cast in the earlier seasons (and I like the current supporting cast that I've seen up until season... 9? I can't remember where I left off). It was DI Poole I couldn't stand. I much preferred the other detectives, though DI Parker took a while to grow on me and I still roll my eyes at some of his quirks.

Kinda same. I write things and post them in case anyone else would enjoy it. 'Hey thumbs up I liked this' is enough. I'm not looking for conversation about it and if you're not either, great.
