( Re: Eastwick being canceled; cut for space. )
Anyway, this is all by way of long-windedly saying that I am annoyed, and of late I channel my annoyance via being fannish specifically about due South. (I know, this is shocking.) One thing this means is that if I ever end up writing that dS/Eastwick crossover I keep mulling over, it'll still have Fraser and Darryl quoting Paradise Lost at each other or something hilarious and awesome like that, but it'll probably end up being about, say, Stella & Frannie & Meg.
The other thing this means is that I spend a hell of a lot of time going on about how much I love Fraser and Rays, and having this niggling feeling that the women on due South are problematic for reasons that are tangled and messy and thus keep on not being explored at this juncture. Maybe some day I will, but in the meantime I don't actually want to deconstruct, because I don't think that will help the annoyance; instead, I want to take a short break from Fraser and Rays, and talk about how even if the women on due South are problematic, they are also often awesome.
