I understand the attraction of fan fiction even if I don't indulge in it myself. Most reasons have already been mentioned but I'll add one more.
Even before a TV series is finished there is sometimes room for a new writer to contribute. I know a woman who pitched Star Trek TNG episodes to the show's producers while the series was still running. Clearly such a a writer is presenting their "fan fiction" and is deeply immersed, regardless of their success.
Firefly is recent example of a TV series that was cancelled before its time. Count me among those who wish to see it ressurected. Fan fiction has a part in that, showing some possibilities.
