I just realized this community was formed a few days ago. I looked when I first signed up to LJ back in Sept 2004. I guess it is a good sign that there is a community now. The reshowing of episodes recently on Starz Westerns is bringing out the fans. Alias Smith and Jones was my first fandom. My sis was asking me one day back in the late 90's about Pete's suicide; I had just come online and decided to do a Yahoo! search (there was no Google then). Anyway, I came across several yahoo! groups and fell head first into fandom.
I do adore Pete's Heyes. I can barely tolerate Roger in the role. I have watched some of the Roger eps, but the chemistry is not there. It is like they are trying too hard for something that came naturally between Pete and Ben. I don't really follow the actors though. I have seen bits and stuff of each of the actors work in other projects. I am not impressed. I think they were made for these roles and AS&J is about the limit of my interest in their careers.
Anyway, I just realized today that there were posts in this community and thought I would chime in. I do have an episode website (
http://www.asjscenes.com/) that I have been working on for years. I am a student now and do not have the time I need to really focus on finishing the job. The reshowing of episodes has regenerated my motivation, so I hope that I will get back to it soon.
I have a vidder friend (
recycledmedia) who I just sent all the Pete episodes on disk and hope to convince to make a vid for pimping the fandom. Also, I don't know if any of you are in asjfans at yahoo!, but there is a vidder there who is having a premiere of her as&j vid at connexions this weekend. I am trying to get her to post here when she puts the vid online.
I also have a friend who makes icons (
abelladonna). She made my two. I can try to get her to make some more as&j icons for the community if anyone is interested.
