Tell us how you found us!

How did you discover due South? Did you watch it on it's original run? Or stumble across a rerun? Did your friend(s) drag you here? Did you find the fic first (and then the fandom, and then the show - like me)?

Did you fall for the Mountie? Or for Ray, or Ray? Was it the deaf half-wolf that made you melt? Or the story-telling? Or the supporting cast, who ran the gamut from the sublime to the ridiculous? Was it the humour, or the magical realism, or the Fraser-whumping that got your attention?

Tell us all about your journey to Chicago! Leave a comment on this post, or link us to your own post.

it's what makes it possible for the show to careen around from deep drama to slapstick comedy to heartwarming to absurd

That, and the flat-out amazing writing. My partner, who is a professional writer and teaches writing workshops at the university where we work, was amazed at the quality of writing for this show. It really was spectacular.
