Same-ish. I don't bother tuning into livestreams but watching the interesting or funny bits of it after it's over and it's all been edited into clips with actual content in them is fun.

[(Anonymous)]

The whole idea is really unappealing to me because I think of these people as video creators. I want to hear or see the interesting parts of what they say or do.

But I guess if you want to feel like you’re hanging out with them, maybe watching a livestream is better for that. And people probably only half-watch or listen while they’re mostly paying attention to something else.

[(Anonymous)]

I like them but part of that is because I got into them during the worst of the Covid lockdowns and they made me feel less alone to hear some people just chattering on while I was trapped in my apartment. Now that the lockdowns are gone, they're not something I listen to/watch every night but they're nice to just have on on the background since I live alone.

I (usually) don't mind letsplayers streaming (they're not really different than their prerecorded videos, unless they tend to cut tedious bits from the latter), although, even then, unless the stream is not going to be watchable afterward, I'll generally wait until it's finished, and watch the recording. (Or wait even longer if an edited recording is likely forthcoming.)

Non-gameplay, or people I don't follow for gameplay streaming games, I'm not interested in, though.

(I really don't like when they have sound effects set up for viewer interactions, though. I want to hear the game, and the streamer, not random movie sound bites whenever somebody donates, joins the stream, etc...)

[the Forsyte Saga]

[(Anonymous)]

I agree. Soames isn't unsympathetic, but he's absolutely responsible for his actions, and the way he and other characters deal with/respond to that is interesting, especially given the time period and what prevailing social attitudes were then. I'd hate to see it lost through oversimplification.
(It's a while since I saw the series so I hope I'm not misremembering it.)

I've only seen the first Branagh Poirot movie and it didn't make much of an impression. But I don't care for Agatha Christie's writing. IMO, the adaptations make her stories tolerable, but I've tried to read her novels and they just aren't my cup of tea.

I LOLed at your alternative suggestions, OP! I don't read enough fic to be bothered by cliched phrases, but I do get it re: "shit-eating grin" because I've seen it used in fandoms where the tone just... doesn't really match the character, or the setting, or something. Most of the time plain old "grin" works just fine, but for older settings, I prefer "smirk".

…but this place is full of I Hate Ten whovians?
And when Eleven was on, at least a quarter of fandom activity was Ten fans hating on Eleven.
I don’t think Twelve got it as much simply because the audience had shrunk A LOT by that point. But Thirteen and Fifteen both had a change of showrunner so people tuned back in to see if it was something they liked again. This is particularly true with Fifteen because it was the return of RTD who had a built in fanbase.

It’s okay, OP. You and I can stay in our world where we prefer the fanon, but know what is, and what is not, canon. I like it here. It’s quiet, and it’s so easy to ignore those delusional fans.

Are there any characters, ships, or stories that you were surprised to fall for because they aren’t your usual type(s)?

Do you have any idea why this outlier is different for you? Or has it stayed a mystery?

Oh dear, this one. We all only know this because of distressing news reports from 2014. Sad when a terrorist group is more effective at getting your country known than your tourist board is.
