TV Tuesday: Being Seen

Laptop-TV combo with DVDs on top and smartphone on the desk



What does representation in television mean to you? Do you find representation important? When did you feel represented in a TV show?

Round 150 Has Ended!

Wow! Sound off in the comments if you survived Round 150 (the dolphins are flippering out commemorative t-shirts), and also what you got up to in the Time Warp. Still feeling woozy? See the penguins for a warm beverage. If you posted on AO3, don't forget we have a collection for works you worked on during the Rush if that's something you're into! Thanks for making this Round memorable, thank you to the Time Chicken for not abandoning us to the tender mercies of the Void, who opened this Round, and an uproarious ovation to our Champion Usurper, [personal profile] lilly_c, Clumsy Rhino, who fearlessly steered us through myriad temporal vortices. I'm [personal profile] xandromedovna, WerebunniesBane, this is Fic_Rush, I'm gonna go lie down. *bursts into flames leaving behind only non-plastic glitter*

Rec Request

Hi! I need some new comedic comfort watches and thought this was the place to ask. I enjoy Derry Girls and Kath & Kim and I'm looking for shows with a similar tone of humour. Preferably no laugh tracks. Movie recs are welcome too; I loved Spice World, American Fiction and Bottoms, for tonal reference.

Taskmaster S19 Trailer

Eureka! It’s a new series of Taskmaster! Your five volatile elements are Fatiha El-Ghorri, Jason Mantzoukas, Mathew Baynton, Rosie Ramsey and Stevie Martin - plus, of course, a compound of Daviesium and Horneium.

Community Recs Post!

Every Thursday, we have a community post, just like this one, where you can drop a rec or five in the comments.

This works great if you only have one rec and don't want to make a whole post for it, or if you don't have a DW account, or if you're shy. ;)

(But don't forget: you can deffo make posts of your own seven days a week. ;D!)

So what cool fanart/fancrafts/fics/fanvids/podfics/other kinds of fanworks have we discovered this week? Drop it in the comments below. Anon comment is enabled.

BTW, AI fanworks are not eligible for reccing at recthething. If you aware that a fanwork is AI-generated, please do not rec it here.

SVU: 5 favorite Lewis arc recs

Apologies to anyone who was enjoying my weekly Leverage recs - I got too busy to continue… partly because I got into SVU and have been reading and devouring fic in that fandom.

And while there are far too many good fics to list a bunch, I have made a post for my personal top 5 Lewis arc fics over at my DW. Very EO-centric.

If you're an SVU fan who hasn't read much fic yet, you can't go wrong starting there! Or if it's been a while, and you don't remember the fics you used to read, the list not only has a few older ones but several much newer ones you won't have seen.

Round 150 Dates

it's good to know our big STRONG ticky box will always be looking out for us! We have a tie for our Rush weekend, but more Mods seem to be available this weekend, 18-20 April--sorry for the late notice, it was a nail-biter! The first 24 Hours of this Round will likely not see me for more than panicked screaming about the due date I'll probably forget because RL, so if someone could open the Round I'd owe you a 1.2 million glowsticks. Mods, please consider claiming an anchor post, and don't forget we're always looking for more Mods!

ETA: Now featuring a reinstated BST column because I have no concept of the passage of time, congrats to [personal profile] lilly_c  for winning Spot the Error!!
