gabrielleabelle just posted a really lovely post on fandom eyeware and the way we're all watching different shows. It's awesome, and you should all read it.In said post,
elisi linked to this really awesome article about how we're not all watching the same show. You should all read this one, too, because the rest of this post will not make sense without it.A lot of her names for the shows are hilariously awesome, and it inspired me. To share with you some of the shows that I've watched.
For instance, I'm always watching this show called the Buffy Summers Is the Coolest Person In the History of the Universe—Especially in the Later Seasons—Show and I'm also always watching the Spike Owns My Soul, So What Does He Need One of His Own For? Show. In earlier seasons, I watched the Oz Is Existentially Awesome Show and/or the Cordelia Chase Thinks It and Says It Show or the Giles is British-er Than You Show. I was also really fond of the Spike and Dawn Are Outcasts of the Universe Together Show, but that one got canceled. Thankfully, the Girls Kick Ass--Sometimes with Rocket Launchers!--Show stuck around. S7 is not only the Buffy and Spike’s Private, Beautiful Love Show but also the Andrew Wells Makes Me Laugh So Hard My Sides Ache Show and the Dawn Summers Is Cooler Than You Show.
And, of course, whenever I watch any Joss show, I'm also always watching both the the Witty Banter and Punny Quip Show and the 1000 Ways to Fail at Racial Sensitivity Show.
There was this other show I watched that was called the Veronica Mars is Smarter Than You Show (obviously), but also went by a lot of other names:
- the Logan Echolls: Snarking His Way into Television History Show (thanks, Joss!)
- the The Papa Mars Is a Badass and Should Say ‘Who’s Your Daddy?’ Every Episode Show
- the Wallace Fennel Proves He Is the Greatest BFF Ever—Again! Show
- the Kendall and Cassidy Take Over the World Show (I think I may be the only one watching this one)
- the Every Line Is Quotable Show
So. Ask me about other shows-within-shows that I watched! Tell me which shows you were watching! Let's turn this into a thing! Don't leave me hanging! I'm excited!

My Macness was more the Mac and Cassidy Are the Cutest Thing in the World!--Oh...Wait...Show. But I was totally watching the smirking thing, too!
Ha! I was watching, for years, the Dean Winchester Hates Himself--and I Love It! Show and the Bobby is a Badass Show. Also, the Quit Whining, Sammy! Show. But then the At Least Jo and Ellen Are Out There Kicking Ass Show got canceled, and I said farewell.
I was watching the Eric and Tammy's Marriage Show and the Oh Matt Saracen! Show and the Please Let Tyra Escape from Dillon and Accomplish Her Dreams Show and the Finally! Realism on Television! Show. But I'm way behind. I need to catch up.
I also watched the Jess is Awesome Show, the I Wouldn't Want to be Related to Richard and Emily, but I Sure Do Love Them as Characters Show, the Stars Hollow Has the Greatest Citizens Ever Show, the I Still Can't Believe Sebastian Bach Is On This Show Show, and the Seriously, Lorelei and Luke, Just Get Together! Show. But then the Wow, I Can Relate to Rory Show became the Wait, No I Can't, and I'm Beginning to Hate Her Show. Deeply tragic.

You really need to play catch up on the Tyra Collette Deserves Better Show. It's still wonderful. The Tim Riggins Will Never Learn His Lesson Show is also very entertaining.

Tyra Collette Deserves Better Show OH YES! I always thought so. I really, really do need to catch up.
And: hee! That Riggins show makes me giggle!
[eta] I can't believe I misspelled Tami's name upthread! I'm an awful person!
