If Gaim fans glaze over little issues, it's only because the show itself is so good it makes it easy. Small imperfections in an otherwise flawless painting are easily ignored for the big picture.

However, should Gaim (and I don't even know why we're considering this and living with worry when we could be watching an awesome show) take a nose-dive into the brown and stinky river, that doesn't mean fans will simply ignore that.

People like what is good, so if it's not total perfection, it doesn't matter. It's still good. But if it's bad, well, they won't. The ability to overlook minor and inconsequencial flaws doesn't make us blind to ALL problems as you constantly insist. Not everybody analyses these shows with surgical tools in their hands, they just watch them for fun. That may not be how you do it, but they do. And you're perfectly entitled to do it your way, just as they are theirs. I know you probably don't mean to, but you make it sound like it's wrong for people to like Gaim as much as they do, because tehy're willing to appreciate it overall rather than make note of every single glaring flaw, distracting them from what they like.
