Okay, so never mind that it's well past my bedtime and I don't have time for the internet these days, Dar and I just watched the first episode of Sherlock, and in the absence of the ability to lick Steven Moffat all over (aaaaaaaalllll over) I find that I am simply compelled to post a spazzflail about it. Benedict Cumberbatch, your brilliance in ( Read more... )

Vaguely related (I need to watch this show like whoa now), but: I have heard rumour that Neil Gaiman? Will be doing an EPISODE OF DOCTOR WHO.

HE IS SO A TIME LORD - I remember when I was watching it with Becca that the whole ep seemed very Doctor Who-ish, although that could just be Moffat's series-bleeding a bit.

BUT SHOWWWWWWWWW. THE DIALOGUE. AND THE BANTER. AND THE FACT THAT EVERYONE THINKS HOLMES AND WATSON ARE DATING. AND THE FACT THAT THEY KIND OF ARE. <3333333333333 I too am very, very sad at the fact that there are only three episodes, because I want there to be ELEVENTY BAZILLION AND FOR THIS SHOW TO GO ON FOREVERRRR.

Ahhh! I watched it on the bus on the way back to Chicago, and if the guy sitting behind me hadn't been so nosy about what I was doing all the time, I would've watched it a second time.

Martin Freeman's similarities to John Simm have always vexed me... Though I guess it should be the other way around, because technically I saw Martin as Arthur Dent first. And I'm always having to go and check if they're secret brothers. Maybe I should just edit wikipedia so that's the case.

And this is the point where I shut up because everything else I have to say involves subjecting you to the endless analytical creaking of the gears inside my head. (-;

Benedict Cumberbatch's name, ohwow. I don't know whether to look at it askance or love it to pieces or both. It's just such a mouthful! (It is rather spectacular, though. <3)

Martin Freeman reminds me of John Simm too! It's really weird; for a moment in the opening, I thought it was John Simm (because, to me, a drama series seems more John Simm's thing than Martin Freeman's ...). They totally as secret brothers. :P

I KNOW THE THREE EPISODES THING MAKES ME WANT TO CRY! But - the BBC have commissioned another series! Hurrah! :D

Holmes is as flamingly gay as a tree full of fruit bats on fire, yes. *nods* I love the fact that practically everyone (Mrs Hudson, Mycroft, the restaurant guy ...) just sort of assumes that Holmes and Watson are a couple. Hee~! This awesome is only surpassed by the fact that they practically are. Ah, Moffat. <3 ( ... )
