Assuming that FIXTURE_LIST is correctly defined and references well formed fixtures, I can't see anything obviously wrong with your example. You are correct in your understanding that a Django TestCase will flush the database at the start of each test, so both tests should have a clean database and be reporting the same results. The suggestion that the GenericForeignKey is the source of the problem is certainly plausible. I'm not aware of any problems serializing Generic FK's, but they are more complicated and less exercised than regular keys and fields, so it is certainly a reasonable place to start looking. If you could provide a minimal complete example of this behaviour and attach it to a new ticket, it would be most helpful.
