Miss Fisher's Murder Mysteries: Open Thread!

Welcome to the Miss Fisher's Murder Mysteries Open Thread!

Miss Fisher stands with arms extended, hands resting on a large rope in front of her (a boxing ring). Text reads Open Thread.


(Thanks to [personal profile] cyborganize for the graphic!)

So many friends are watching Miss Fisher, [personal profile] tellitslant and I thought it might be nice to start a new (public) open thread.

Because --

* twitter is too short.

* tumblr is difficult (for some) to archive/track.

* it'd be fun to have my friends talk with each other about MFMM.

* I want to meet your MFMM fandom friends too.


Couple quick notes:

* don't be shy about using comment subject lines. If past is precedent, MFMM conversations can be sprawling and subject lines will help everyone.

* please tag S3 spoilers in your comment subject line.

* please post anything you find on S3! that one video is great but not enough. :D

* it probably doesn't need to be said? but, no character-bashing or ship-bashing. Be respectful of different fanons.


Post away!

The heart of the matter. Ironically, I feel like part of the appeal of this hetship for me was its canonicity (after one too many run-ins with queer baiting), but now I'm SO WORRIED ABOUT CANON. The vibe in the promo is more of the same – Phryne swans around with eligible bachelors while smoldering at Jack – although it may draw mostly from the first couple of episodes. I might actually DIE if they don't continue some forward momentum for the OTP (and it's hard to imagine how much more forward they could get without KISSING). But – although I'm not a TV writer – I can't see a clear path that the show could navigate after the kissing without tripping over varying degrees of FAIL. (I'm seeing it through fanfic, but obviously that's different.) I trust TPTB to a certain degree on the basis of hetshipping privilege and demonstrated respect/nuance about Phryne's particular brand of sex positive feminism. But there's just such a narrow window of Kissing-without-Monogamy that I'd find not-heartbreaking! HOLD ME.
