Co-hosted by V @aimmyarrowshigh (I Met You On LJ) and Emily @idontgettechnology (I Ship It), This Week In Fandom History celebrates fandom culture's highest highs and weirdest lows. With which short-lived vampire cop drama was the very first X-Files fic crossed over? Who is Tara Gilesbie? How recently did the Starsky & Hutch Lending Library rent out its last zine? What were Strikethrough, Racefail, LGBTFansDeserveBetter, and Conchobar, anyway? V and Emily trade off some deep-internet research each week to learn and laugh (and sometimes rage) their way through the annals (heh) of fandom history. Come join us!

    February 13, 2026: TWIFH Live @ TGIF/F! With Fan Girl Film Club!

    Did I say something gay at the femslash convention?! This week, a very special LIVE episode of This Week In Fandom History, recorded at the 10th anniversary TGIF/F (TGI Femslash) con in San Pedro, CA! Emily was not able to attend, so V is joined for the recording by wonderful cohost-in-law Mia from Fan Girl Film Club.  The last 40 minutes are shares from TGIF/F attendees about what the con has meant to them over the years, and they are truly not to be missed. So special, so vulnerable, so queer, so fandom. If nothing else, listen to these -- and start saving to come to TGIF/F in 2027. It's a place like none other. Thank you from the bottoms of our hearts to TGIF/F core and support staff, especially John, for inviting us and letting us be the Friday Night Spotlight in 2026!

    January 21, 2002: The First Time Someone Posted A Five Times Fic

    +1! This week, Emily and V look at everyone's favorite fic format, the 5+1 fic. This humble story structure seems like it's always been a part of fandom, or just a part of human storytelling, but no! It all started with a little Clark/Lex story in Smallville fandom back in 2002, and boy, are we grateful. Come along with us as we talk about which fandoms grow these babies like lemons on trees, which stories have devastated us the most, and more Times than you can count.

    December 17-18, 2014: Makorra Bottles Never Popped, Korrasami Changes Cartoons

    Well, this happened. This week, V and Emily take a look at two simultaneous fandom events in a fandom neither knows well: The Legend of Korra. And really, both events are the same event: the ending of the show. On the one hand, we have Makorras ready to pop biggest bottles when their ship becomes canon. On the other, we have a different (and queer!) ship becoming canon instead, a first for Western children's animation. The majority of sources for this episode were V actually interviewing people who participated in the LOK fandom and getting their takes, because every written source is, um, biased, and not how she remembered seeing it all go down on her dash back in 2014... So buckle in, bend some water(?), and join us in feeling conflicted about avatars!

    December 14, 2001: Save Daniel Jackson, And Other Fan Campaigns

    Gate those stars! This week, Emily and V take a look at fannish campaigns to save beloved TV shows and beloved characters, focusing on one in particular: the campaign to bring Daniel Jackson back to Stargate SG-1. From mailing marshmallows to taking out ads in Variety and The Hollywood Reporter, fans have done all kinds of things to make their voices heard by TPTB. Were they successful in bringing back Daniel Jackson (and saving SG-1's premiere slash ship, natch)? Join us in our scifi spaceship to find out! Sources Fanlore Daniel Jackson Divas And again.

    December 5, 2023: #reylogate AKA #reviewgate AKA This Again

    #reylos are at it again! This week, V and Emily dive headfirst into a HIGHLY requested event in fandom history: when reylo-turned-pro author Cait Corrain completely decimated their own career and tried to take the Reylo fandom down with it. This is the MsScribe story but with a 2024 twist! So many sockpuppets! So many hashtags! So much villainfucking! And SO MUCH MONEY!

    November 24, 2015: Lexa Buys (a) Fish.

    #relationshipgoals! This week, Emily and V look at a Incorrect Quotes post from The 100 fandom that broke containment in a big way, and how normies -- and apparently major newspapers -- do not do a modicum of Googling before they draw their lines in the sand about really dumb things that are obviously fictional. We also discuss Incorrect Quotes and Texts From posts in general, with a long diversion into the literal hellscape that is fandom Pinterest. Sources Fanlore LIVE SHOW ANNOUNCEMENT!

    November 23, 1963: 11/23/63

    No, not THAT historical event from November 1963! This week, V and Emily take a trip back in time to a notorious week to explore how a real-life major event in history-history almost caused a major event in fandom history to die at the starting line! We're talking about how Doctor Who, the juggernaut fandom that's been on the air for over 50 years, almost never became a thing just because someone (not named Bucky Barnes...) assassinated JFK a mere 12 hours before the first episode debuted. Rude. It was hard for the little scifi show that could to pick up steam after being overshadowed in such a major way, but look at them go! They're still around and we love 'em!  Sources Wikipedia TARDIS Wiki LIVE SHOW ANNOUNCEMENT!
