Shows from the 60s/70s will always consist of the main characters going through the most insane, life-changing, traumatising experience and then having a shot of them all laughing together at the end and proceeding to never speak of it ever again
gay 70s copaganda thesis is actually about the inherent homoeroticism of the western genre and the cultural image of the male cowboy it borrows from. or as Susan Sarandon once put it, "They got their guns out because they couldn't get their dicks out"
i love fandoms that are old/dead because then you have years to decades of dormant accounts and official promos to pore through looking for priceless artifacts and relics to take back to your trove, leaving your respects for creators and usernames long since forgotten
i love fandoms that are tiny and you and the twelve other ppl enjoying it with you are mostly on the same wavelength, or trying to be so no one gets pushed out of the group bc you need each other to keep the joy alive
i love fandoms that are too big for everyone to be familiar with the same things. the fictional universe is so expansive that you can wave at another fan online, but have no clue who their blorbo is or what part of the franchise they're from
Cop show creators will be making some of the most soul wrenching, charming, beautiful partners who act like they’re in love with each other, but then when people ask them if they’re in love, the creators will deny it wholeheartedly
Ford Gran Torino 2-door Hardtop, 1975. The producers of the new TV series needed a flashy specialty car for the main characters and the Gran Torino was chosen with a large white vector stripe added to make it less mundane. The series was a big success and the car attracted enough attention for Ford to make a special edition of 1000 "Starsky and Hutch" Torinos. The death was announced today of David Soul who played the role of Sergeant Kenneth Richard "Hutch" Hutchinson in the series. RIP
