Mostly I watch before I read, but sometimes I'll watch because everyone on my flist has rec'd it. Like when everyone was going mad for H50 I looked at the pictures and squee that was going on and started watching. Most of fandoms I was in originally - SGA, H/D - I was a fan before I knew what fandom was :)
I don't think I could have read Inception fic before seeing the film! Wouldn't that be confusing??
I love Merlin, fic and show, :) It's kinda cheesy sometimes but I love it! I think the rpf thing has to do with how much you see of the actors behind the scenes. They do lots of things on Merlin so you see the actors quite a lot (they do Secrets Revealed but I think that might have only been the second series for every episode, and they did an online thing where Bradley and Colin had to answer questions and do tasks.)
