I think you're exactly right. JF's performance is subtle and it makes the show for me. There's a moment in Common Ground I just can't watch again, after the first time John's been fed on, and the expression in his eyes is absolutely broken. But there's a lot of people who just don't get subtle. No matter how much they go on about how wonderful DH is, they aren't getting the subtle parts of his performance either, thus Fanon!Woobie!Weeping!Rodney.

That's happened in every fandom I've been in, but for me I think it's just getting progressively less easy to put up with. I've already cut back on my LJ reading and fanfic reading a huge amount for other reasons, but I still keep running into the JF and John bashing, it bothers me way more than it should. The unfun parts of fandom have really started overwhelming the fun parts for me, lately.
