I'm so with you, there. For me, part of the challenge of fanfic has always been writing something that could fit seemlessly into canon--that works *with* the show, and feels like it belongs there. if I'm writing something that I *know* is gonna be canon fodder, that's different. I'm doing that now (tho, granted, Firefly is semi- closed-canon right now, so that kinda helps). But still. I like seeing if I can slip a story in that both stands on its own two feet, AND blends in with its surroundings.
