WELL NOW YOU HAVE KILLED ME. THANKS.
all of the feels.
Totes.
Best thing ever.
Oh, my word, Nathan Fillion.
This week's POI:
"If I don't make it, tell Shaw..."
"I think she already knows."
Practically canon.
FYI, Elementary is back tonight.
I am lukewarm about the Elementary premiere.
Good stuff: Joan kicking all kinds of ass, Gina Gershon being Gina Gershon, Gregson not even willing to deal with Sherlock's shit, *Joan* not even willing to deal with Sherlock's shit, Clyde!, Jonny Lee Miller's acting.
Bad stuff: Despite how well JLM just NAILS Sherlock's walled-off emotional regression, I cannot STAND it. I even get that it's totally in character, but I can't stand his emotional arm's-length bullshit with Joan (even as he's making little attempts at reconnecting [but only on his terms, at a distance he's comfortable with] -- the housewarming gift made me laugh and laugh; oh Sherlock, so awkward); also, Kitty. Again, I get what the show is doing, I get that it's in character for Sherlock to have taken on a new protege, I get that it's in character for Sherlock to not get (or not be willing to admit) how ridiculously hurtful that is to Joan, but...no. I just don't want a new character. Though I do appreciate that she's not a brilliant special snowflake who's just as good as Joan.
I just don't want a new character when Gregson and Bell are already criminally underused.
I totally get the point of Sherlock's emotional regression, but I strongly dislike it. It's painful to watch. Which is the point, I'm sure, but man, I cannot stand it. (It also perhaps maybe hits a little too close to home for me, so I'm being defensive.)
