I believe I've mentioned not above a hundred times or so that I've been rewatching the Man from U.N.C.L.E. from the DVD set that I got as a present a few years ago. We just started watching the 4th season, and I have to give kudos to the people who designed the attache case it came in!

The fourth season is shorter than the others, as the show was canceled midseason. (Pause for a moment of sorrowful reflection.) This means that the internal box holding that season's DVD's is a little shallower than the boxes for the other three ... which I really hadn't thought about. When I lifted it out, it turned out there was an extra compartment behind it with bonus DVDs!!! I thoroughly admire that. SO in keeping with the secret agent motif!

[livejournal.com profile] gblvr made this for me when I first got onto LJ. You can probably guess my major fandom at the time.

The movie meme, plus recent discussions with some of my Tin Man peeps reminded me of one of my favorite movies EVAR and I just had to make an icon. Actually, four.

Non-spoilery comments: I *loved* this TV show when I was about twelve (it was on in reruns) and I enjoyed the movie immensely. I haven't laughed this hard at a movie in AGES. Lots of nice references to the series, too.

I'm still pondering [livejournal.com profile] settiai's excellent challenge, but I had an idea of how to address [livejournal.com profile] maubast's, so I'm doing this one out of order.

Here's the prompt:

I will pick Man from U.N.C.L.E. [snip]

Words: seashell, seagull, gun


I have to confess to cheating a little bit; I'm hoping it's okay to use "U.N.C.L.E. special" in place of "gun"?

Also, this is definitely a third-season ficlet. Hope y'all enjoy!

So I'm in the laundry area, because everything I want to pack needs washed (that's some sort of Murphy's Law), when the husband calls my name very abruptly so I run into the TV room (which is right next to the laundry). He points to the TV. I peer at it and see two guys creeping around a cave. Looks like an old B&W Western.

Wait a minute... isn't that Ross Martin?

Then the other guys turns around and it's Robert Conrad.

OMG SQUEEEE!!!!!!!

It was supposed to be women's basketball, but it was The Wild Wild West!!!! You know, these things are usually the other way around.

Happy dance!

I forgot - I'll also buy zines with I Spy content. I have about five or six: one MFU crossover novel and a handful of gen multimedia zines.

Okay, I'm going to try this for the first time, because it sounds like a fun one. It's from fannish5.

1. What's the first zine you read? Name the fandom if you can't name the zine.

That would be the same as the first zine I bought; see below.

2. What was the first zine you bought? Do you still own it?

I'm pretty sure it was Stardate:Unknown #2. Two friends and I went to a con when I was in high school (circa 1977); three issues were out, and we each bought one. Mine had McCoy on the cover. (My fave character.)

It's possible that it was an issue of Warped Space, though; I started buying those early. And Masiform D. I loved that series in Masiform D about the human student studying at the Klingon school. [Brief time-out for musing: there seemed to be a lot of that back then: entire series of stories with original characters in the fannish universe, where the TV characters might never make an appearance. I don't see that as much now. Maybe I'm not looking in the right places.]

Anyway, do I still own it? Oh, yeah. And the other four issues. Or, if it was Warped Space: oh, yeah, and the other fifty+ issues.


3. What was the last zine you bought?

I bought a small pile at MW*C; don't have the list handy. They included Phoenix Investigations #2 (Rat Patrol/Sentinel crossover), Vilya (LOTR slash), and the most recent issues of Remote Control, Of Dreams and Schemes, and Diverse Doings.

4. How many zines do you own?

I'm not sure. Several hundred; possibly over a thousand. I've been collecting them for ever so long.

5. For how many fandoms do you currently buy zines or do you only read online fic now?

I'll buy virtually *any* zine--gen, het, or slash--that contains Rat Patrol or Barney Miller fanfic. One step down from that degree of rabidness, I'll buy all-Wild Wild West zines, but I won't usually buy a multi zine just because it has WWW in it. Ditto LOTR.

When I buy multimedia zines, I look for the above fandoms, plus Highlander, Blakes 7, Man from U.N.C.L.E., UFO, Star Trek, Doctor Who, and several others that I've probably forgotten. I usually end up reading all the stories, and have acquired thereby a passing familiarity with SG-1 and The Sentinel (I've also seen a handful of eps of each).
