Thin Blue Line Productions was a virtual season project centered at the show The Sentinel, created after an exchange of emails between Lyn and caarianna. The project carried out two works/seasons, The Sentinel Slash Movies Project and The Sentinel Slash Stories of the Month hosted on two different sites between its years of activity.

The project was discontinued after the departure of the organizer caarianna[note 1], below is a brief description of the foundation of Thin Blue Line Productions:

It all began in November, 2004 when, based on a brief exchange of emails about storylines, Lyn asked if I’d help her fulfill a vision she had about creating a slash series of monthly long stories, like TV movies; such a season would be less demanding than trying to get out stories on a weekly basis for a more traditional ‘virtual season’, and longer stories would give us a chance to get into some meaty plotlines. There was a discussion on Senad at the time that while there were case stories and romance stories, there didn’t seem to be a lot of stories that combined the two – so we envisioned a series of finely illustrated stories that would respond to that expressed interest.

Notes

  1. ^ caarianna reported that he would leave the project in 2005, but it was active until 2 years later, actually ending in 2007. Excerpt from LJ: Well, it's been quite a year and a bit since Lyn and I first began talking about creating a series of movie-length, monthly, slash romantic case stories -- and what an incredible year it's been! But the season is a wrap and it's time for me to move. I don't know at this point if Lyn will decide to pursue a second season of monthly long stories or not but, if she and others on the list, or new contributers decide to make a go of it, I wish them all success.
