Oh my god NOSTALGIA. *starry eyes, and also laughter*
The friend who got me into fanfic in the first place was a big fan of a lot of ridiculous nineties shows. Highlander, SG1, The Sentinel, Magnificent Seven... She would show me random episodes -- this was pre-Hulu and pre-YouTube, so it was whatever ones she happened to have gotten her hands on that weren't too godawful except in hilarious ways -- and link me to fanfic with quick character explanations, and I found Highlander EPICALLY hilarious and kind of addictive.
I keep meaning to go back and rewatch my way through properly. And cackle the entire time. (I like Duncan too, because I am a sucker for the earnest hero type, especially if he's surrounded by snarky bastard friends and not presented as always right. The fact that I find Adrian Paul very pretty does not hurt.)

Damn you for completely encouraging this urge.
