Why this vid kicks ass:

It's a delightful potted history of slash, with snippets ranging from the 1960s (Original Star Trek, Man From U.N.C.L.E., I Spy), 1970s (Professionals), 1980s (Next Generation Star Trek, Wiseguy), 1990s (Sentinel, Due South, Highlander, Xena, X Files), all the way to early 2000s (Buffy, West Wing, Oz) and many more I can't quite identify.

The wistful longing of the lyrics gives the clips added humour and nicely emphasises the slashy subtext.

A great song, wonderful clips - I adore this vid.
