Sherlock... and other TV shows.
There's the first promo pic for Sherlock season 3 floating around and we also know that the BFI will screen the first episode of s3 on Dec 15. These two things kinda depressed me because, well, for one I miss Sherlock and I want it back NAO, and for another... there's no way I'll be able to go to the screening so, yeah, depressed. Luckily, Tumblr provided amusement in the form of a manip of the promo pic. Behind the cut to spare your f-list:

LMAO! The writing on the cup!!!! *dies* Oh, I love how creative this crazy fandom can get *g*
I also realized it had been a while since I'd annoyed the hell out of you all talked about TV. Couple this with the fact that I have some free time and you get this post. I know, I know, I'll be talking mostly to myself here, but these days I always am so I'm used to it :)
Feeling creative here so, a cut for every TV show. Spoilers for everything mentioned, of course, and personal opinions abound so read at your own risk.
Revenge - Definitely my favourite show and I'm terrified of losing it since the ratings aren't stellar. I'll never understand why people don't watch this show. The latest episode was by far my favourite of the season (and of season 2, too, which admittedly was a bit weak) and I'm so looking forward to learn of Emily's plans! Also, I ship Nolan/Patrick so hard it's not funny. If you follow me on Tumblr, you might have noticed it *g*
Once Upon A Time, both original and Wonderland - The original OUAT is very good this season and it's a relief 'cause I didn't much like season 2. I just wish they'd resolve this Pan storyline quickly 'cause it's getting repetitive. As for Wonderland.... blah. The actors are pretty bad, too, which doesn't help. The girl playing the Red Queen sucks so bad I cringe everytime she speaks... ugh.
Downton Abbey - I could rant and rave for ages but I'll restrain myself. Will just say this: Anna's rape took me completely away from everyone else's storyline and I wasn't able to enjoy the two episodes after that. The latest episode was better, thanks to Mary and to the pure gold that are the scenes between Maggie Smith and Penelope Wilton. Still, not entirely happy with the season.
Sleepy Hollow - By far my favourite new show! OMG I love everything this shows chooses to be and I adore Abbie to bits. Plus, everytime Ichabod says "leftenent" I swoon *g* Me and British guys, I swear *g*
The Blacklist - Another new show I'm following and I like it. It's intriguing and very well thought out. James Spader owns the entire show but that was to be expected.
American Horror Story: Coven - This season is absolute perfection! This show keeps getting better and better! I didn't like season 1 at all; season 2 really gripped me and scared me half to death; this season? I'm blown away. Perfection. Jessica Lange is superb, and so's Kathy Bates. A few scenes are disturbing but, well, it's AHS... it's to be expected.
Revolution - Monroe!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Please tell me he's not really dead!!!! Him and Miles are what keeps me going! They're so.... slashy! LOL *g* I like the show but I'm not sure I understand why they changed things so completely. It went from "let's turn the lights on" to "the patriots are the enemy and Aaron has superpowers." Bzuh?
White Collar - Love! I do wish they'd found another way to bring Peter and Neal back together that didn't involve killing the new FBI guy, though. I mean, why bring in a new character only to kill him two episodes later? Next episode should be interesting.
Grimm - I like this show mainly because it gives me back all my Scooby Gang feels from Buffy and Angel. But this season promises to be veeeeery interesting and I can't wait :)
Witches of East End - Yet another new show.... and one I'm not entirely sure about. I mean, I love Wendy and Ingrid, and I love the basic plot. But the general acting is not that great and the sub-plots (the love triangle, for example) are a bit of a same-old-same-old. Still better witches than Secret Circle, but that wasn't hard.
Beauty and the Beast; Arrow - I put these two together because they have the same thing in common: I'm watching them 'cause my sister is and she likes to talk about them with me. BATB is a nice little show but nothing great, Arrow is more interesting and Felicity makes it all worthwhile. That said, if it weren't for my sister, I wouldn't be watching.
The Vampire Diaries, Elementary, CSI, SVU, Hawaii 5-0- These are all together because, well, I watch them because of habit or because there's nothing better to watch. TVD is boring as hell and I only like Katherine nowadays, hopefully things will pick up. Elementary is nice but it's not Sherlock Holmes. CSI and SVU are same-old-same-old but I feel attached to the characters so I keep watching. As for Hawaii 5-0, well, they try to kill the slash and the show suffers, so they bring it back but it feels mostly like a bribe and... meh. Still, I watch 'cause of the occasional StevexDanno moment.
Glee - The tribute episode broke me but, tbh, I don't know whether I'm interested enough to keep watching. I probably will for Kurt and Rachel but I don't know... Glee doesn't grip me anymore.
Supernatural - I watch an episode here and there, mostly for Castiel and Crowley. Don't really have an opinion on the show itself anymore.
Dracula - Only two episodes aired so I can't be sure, but for now? Meh. Disappointed.
Wow, that was long! Lol! Have a good day/evening f-list :)
