I watch three show, Supernatural, Doctor Who and Torchwood, but the states of the fandom, and how seriously they take themselves (or the fans take the shows), is so different.
Supernatural: Please, Please Please stop fanwanking in public! It is disgusting. Stop overthinking things, and having "issues", it is a fantasy show for crying out loud. You know FANTASY!
runs away and stays away from fandom
Doctor Who: Been going so long, and has such an old guard involved, have to be careful which forums and communities to join, but can be fun. It does have a wide appeal for a wide age group, so some can be a little young. *pets*
Torchwood: Ah my fun show. It is camp, frothy, escapist entertainment. The fandom is light, and knows not to take itself seriously. Still not totally forgiven it for killing of the two characters who were played by the best actors, but looking forward to more!
