NOTE: **THE WEBSITE WILL GO THROUGH SOME CHANGES FOR THE 25TH ANNIVERSARY OF THE CLUB ORGANIZATION - JULY 1, 2025**
Hi everyone!
My name is Evelyn & I've been a fan of BSG since 2005, when my sister sat me down and showed me the miniseries... love at first watch, let me tell you! Well, haha, guess I don't have to :)
Anyway, I'm a senior at the University of Michigan, writing my undergraduate honors thesis in the Screen Arts and Cultures (AKA Film & Video) department. I'm writing on fans of television franchises, and I'm looking specifically at BSG. My main argument is that fans/fandom are the reason why franchises are created, and that they sustain interest even during long breaks and after the end of the series. So, obviously, BSG is a perfect example of this! I've got a lot of academic arguments to back it up, but I need some help!
I'd love to hear about your experiences as a fan of BSG, both of the new series, of the classic 1978 series, and of the new spin-off series on SyFy. Of course, I will credit you for your responses in my thesis, and will be happy to send you a copy of the finished product before I turn it in so you can make sure I've accurately quoted you :)
If you're interested/willing to help me out, you can post here or email me at BSG7803@gmail.com! If you're comfortable with doing so, could you please include your age and location? I won't be sharing your information with anyone, and you can be anonymous if you like!
Just a couple of questions to get you thinking: Why do you like BSG? What does it mean to be a fan of a television series? What kinds of fan activities do you participate in? Do you read/write fan fiction, create fan art, go to the conventions (if you do, I'm jealous; I can never afford them!), read fanzines, buy merchandise (again, I'm jealous!!)? What other fandoms do you participate in, if any? And lastly, in what ways (if any) do you think BSG has affected your life?
Thank you so much for reading, and I hope to get to know you all! :)
-Evelyn
