Dear Equinox letter

Thank you for making this vid for me. Feel free to use whatever music inspires you. These are the 1990s sources that I love. The first one I've only discovered recently, but the other four were the loves of my college & grad school years.

Midsomer Murders
This is such a rarely vidded fandom that i would be happy for anything. Wry Tom Barnaby & his family life, quirky villages, slightly bumbling Gavin Troy. I'm particularly fond of the first episode.

Northern Exposure
I'd love a character study of either Marilyn Whirlwind or Chris Stevens or Ed Chigliak or an ensemble vid or anything, really. I loved this show so much when it was first broadcast and love it still.

Fargo
A vid devoted to Marge Gunderson would be great, but seriously, any vid for this movie would make me happy.

Homicide: Life on the Streets
Frank Pembleton fascinated me back in the 1990s. I would absolutely love a Pembleton vid.

Star Trek: Deep Space Nine
There many things I love about this show (the BEST Trek ever!) but these can be boiled down to these things: Sisko, the fantastic ensemble cast, and the complex portrayal of life on a space station.

LOTR and Archer

Festivids reveals happened this morning and so I can post the vid that I made, but first I want to rec a vid that made me laugh so much.

Woo Hoo, an Archer vid is an absolute joy and perfectly captures the absurd zaniness of the show.


I was assigned to make a vid for scribe using the LOTR production videos. I had a basic idea in mind to use Ethel Merman's version of No Business Like Show Business, but rejected that idea for several other songs that didn't quite work. That's when I realized, there's no song that was a better fit for what I wanted to do and no one who sings it as well as Ethel Merman.
