[(Anonymous)]

I've been pleasantly surprised that my little corner of fandom is loving Kira and a lot of the new relationships and characters this season!

I've done the casual* watch of shows before and it is indeed a pleasant and relaxing change of pace now and then.

[(Anonymous)]

Aww, I wish this comment was on the previous secret.

/Kira fan.

[maplelump]

I wish I could be the "casual" fan, one of my good friends IRL is a BNF in the fandom and I haven't mastered the art of saying "no" so I get dragged in.

I need more willpower.

[sootyowl]

I like 3b too! I feel like the show is trying to make up for the mishmash of 3a. I also love Kira and her family ♥

[elaminator]

I'm liking 3B too; it isn't perfect but so far it's an improvement over 3A, and I do quite like Kira (she's adorable) even if her dad is a bit much at times. LOL. I'm even liking Scott/Kira (though it was stupidly predictable).

Glad you're enjoying yourself? Sometimes not dipping into fandom can be nice; it can be less stressful. However, I do enjoy the Teen Wolf fandom anyway, even if it produces a lot of wank; I just do my best to ignore it. Most people seem to be liking 3B! Or at least that's the feeling I get.

Also, I can't wait to meet Deputy Parrish. GIVE ME PARRISH!

[forgottenjester]

Hahahaaaaaa omg yes the fandom is crazy. I'm glad I'm not in it too.

And yeah, 3B is interesting. I mean, I watch the show to rip on it but I can see that it's fun. Anyway, hope your enjoyment of it continues.

[queerwolf]

I read a ton of fic and look at fanart and that's the extent of my being in the fandom. Most of the TW fandom is on Tumblr now and that's not for me so I don't even have the temptation to be more active.

I have been active in fandoms in the past and that can be fun but it can also be exhausting so being a "casual" fan has its perks too.

Anyway, I'm glad someone else is enjoying 3B because I'm loving it. Kira is adorable.

[(Anonymous)]

I think sometimes it's nice to just watch casually* because you don't have the silly wank. Sometimes, it's good to get things off your chest (like "This struck me as a little sexist" or whatever) but some fandoms seem so overall negative, it just poisons your experience.

[darkmanifest]

I usually stay out of live-action fandoms, and yeah, it's enabled me to enjoy the show more comfortably than I think I would have otherwise.

[(Anonymous)]

That's understandable. Personally, the more I watch Teen Wolf, the more I realize the show and the fandom are on entirely different fan planes. It makes sense for some people to be in only one or the other because of how separate they seem.

[dancing_clown]

Man, I love Teen Wolf, but yeah. I stay the hell away from its fandom, which seems to be either Sterek obsessed or full of people who just want to bitch because it's not the show they want it to be.

I wonder...if a comm for "casual* fans" existed...would that automatically make the casual fans something more than casual?

OP

[(Anonymous)]

Well, a "casual" fan comm wouldn't be for me either because I'm also enjoying being out of the cycle of endlessly watching and analysing preview clips and actor interviews. I'm just pretty content experiencing the show out of the context of fandom and the publicity cycle.

[(Anonymous)]

I feel you nonnie! I love the show but hate the overwrought, dramatic fandom.

It doesn't help that I hate Sterek. There are so many better ships on the show, ugh.

[(Anonymous)]

Not getting involved in the fandom is the best idea with this one because almost every faction in it is absolutely completely batshit insane, and not just the Sterek stans. I made the mistake of getting involved and now I'm trying to disengage before it ruins my love of the show.
