Dec. 5th, 2017 09:30 amWhich TV shows did you start watching in 2017?
Shadowhunters, Timeless, Miraculous Ladybug, Westworld
Which TV shows did you let go of in 2017?
Blindspot, Quantico
Which TV shows did you mean to get into but didn't in 2017? Why?
The Defenders. The latest Jane the Virgin is also just sitting in my harddrive.
Which TV shows do you intend on checking out in 2018?
Coco (not a TV show, but on the I’m curious list)
Which TV show impressed you least in 2017?
The Originals didn’t have the same emotional punch to it without my faves. And Netflix royally pissed me off until they made the decision to end Sense8 properly.
Which TV show do you think you might let go of in 2018 unless things significantly improve?
Jane the Virgin. I think killing Michael took a lot of my heart out of watching this show even though I didn’t really ship Jane/Michael? I dunno.
Which TV shows do you think you’ll never let go of no matter how crappy they get?
Grey’s Anatomy. I'm a lifer.
Your favourite TV show of the year?
My must watch ASAPs were AoS, Sense8 and GoT
Your main fandom of the year?
Star Wars, The Originals, MCU, Kimi no na wa, Minecraft
Favourite male character of the year?
Thor! He totally didn’t do it for me with the righteous, arrogant, overpowered but foolish schtick in previous movies, but Ragnarok showed such clever and funny sides of him that made me <3
Favourite female character of the year?
VALKYRIE. Natasha Romanov and Jyn Erso for a few months too.
Your biggest squee moment of the year?
Thor: Ragnarok trailer probably got played like, 100 times after it dropped. Thor’s gleeful YESSSS! Still makes me laugh.
PLUS
The fandom you haven't tried yet, but want to?
??? Would a fandom ever be a draw over a piece of media? I'm deleting this question next year.
Your biggest fan anticipations for the coming year?
THE LAST JEDI, BLACK PANTHER, INFINITY WAR, Miraculous Ladybug S2
Your favourite films you watched this year?
Thor: Ragnarok, Kimi no na wa, Hidden Figures, Lion
Your favourite book read this year?
Cheryl Strayed’s Tiny, Beautiful Things. I am Malala was good too, but a little too preachy?
Your favourite album or song to listen to this year?
Ruelle and MrSuicideSheep’s Youtube channel is what I mostly listen to now, but DESPACITO, hands down. LOL @ myself but it IS SUCH A GOOD SONG.
Your best new fandom discovery of the year?
Youtube videos dissecting stuff. I blame Minecraft. Better source of meta than LJ or tumblr.
Your biggest fandom disappointment of the year?
As mentioned in the TV section, The Originals wasn’t as compelling.
Taylor Swift’s Reputation. I only like two tracks when I used to love all her songs. They feel too, I dunno- processed and EDGY and hmmm not for me.
The most missed of your old fandoms?
AoS, but it’s finally back! :DDDDD I have to rewatch before I can do a proper reaction post with actual thoughts instead of just LOLs and Nooooos and FLAILING but ahhhh SO GOOD.
Quantifying fandom contributions for the year:
I unplugged from fandom things for about 6 months when we moved from Japan to Canada, so numbers are waaaay down this year.
Fic: 7 pieces/24885 words.
GIFsets: 17 (18 if GIFs made for meta count), plus 8 icon batches
Okay, f-list show me yours!

I would interpret that as "of the things you like and haven't looked at the fandom, which fandom do you want to?" or something similar.
