andrasteSo, the Yuletide fandom brainstorming post is live. This is largely copy pasted from my comment there.
Fandom I will definitely be nominating: The Mysterious Cities of Gold. Because I always do. Apparently the new canon has been put off until January of 2013, but given that I've been waiting thirty years since Season One a few more months won't make much different. (Longest. Hiatus. Ever.)
Other fandoms I'm considering:
The Those Who Hunt the Night series by Barbara Hambly: Has had new books released the past two years, and I would love to read more about the World's Most Sensible Vampire Love Triangle. Of course, I could also nominate the Benjamin January mysteries, or the Windrose series, or ...
The Question: Awesome eighties comic series by Denny O'Neill about the guy that Watchmen's Rorschach was based on.
Doctor Strange: The animated movie! The comics would be nice too, but I haven't read very many.
999: Nine Hours, Nine Persons, Nine Doors: I spent far too many hours getting to the good ending in this game, and I love everyone except the boring generic protagonist. (Sorry, Junpei.)
Gray Matter: I <3 this game so much. In the absence of the further official adventures of David and Sam, fanfiction would be great.
The Secret World: Speaking of video games I have spent far too many hours on ... my problem here would be narrowing down the character nominations. Do I want adorable academic slash about Arun Singh and Monty de la Roche? Or do I want to hear more about Eleanor Franklin and her house full of cats and ghosts? Or do I want to write a terrible Mary Sue romance about my Templar and Richard Sonnac? Wait, forget I asked that last question.
G.I. Joe: Renegades: I ship Scarlet/Snake-Eyes like burning and I'd love to know what happens after the end of the series.
Dirk Gently: Alas, BBC4 is not going to be making any more of the TV adapation :(. It is a lovely Yuletide-sized canon, though!
Monster by Big Bang. There is so much going on here. Who doesn't want to hear about the further adventures of a mutant superhero K-Pop boyband?
... so that's nine fandoms for two nomination slots. *facepalm*
Luckily, other people seem to be planning to nominate Miss Fisher's Murder Mysteries and Dollhouse, so that's two less for me to worry about.

Pretty much all their vids could be Yuletide fandoms. They have this tendency to have a lot going on and high production values.
Indeed. There could be Yuletide fic about how Bigbang save music!
