'So then I just HAD to find out ...' - a semi-meta post!

[nemofound.livejournal.com]

As we all know, H_H is a multifandom community, and I doubt that many of us are familiar with every fandom represented. So here's what I'm currently curious about. Has anyone else been so intrigued by a previously unfamiliar character in H_H that she/he saw the movie, read the book or played the game (or etc, etc.) in order to meet that character in his/her canon turf?

For example, I watched Master and Commander: The Far Side of the World in March in order to meet Stephen Maturin. As I told his mun at the time, I was most impressed by the character and by her enactment of him.

And now, I've just finished reading Good Omens. I absolutely adored the book - I'm a Pratchett fan, and now I can't believe it took me so long to pick up this one. I'm also quite impressed with the spot-on H_H characterizations of Crowley, Aziraphale and Adam.

So ... has anyone else got similar "I saw so-and-so in H_H and simply had to go find the canon" experiences?

Farscape is indeed love :-D

Also, Chiana in D'argo's body? Hillarious. Love that episode.

"You were in my shoes... I was in your pants..."

Yeah, I'm finally getting around to buying the series since they NEVER show it anymore.

That's why I'm getting the Starburst Edition DVDs off of ebay and Amazon! Even at full price, it's about 40 bucks cheaper per season than the boxed sets.
