WELL NOW YOU HAVE KILLED ME. THANKS.
all of the feels.
On my seventh birthday, I wanted a toy fire truck, and I didn't get it, and you were real nice about it, and then the house next door burnt down, and then real firetrucks came, and for years I thought you set the fire for me. And if you did, you can tell me!

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.
Best thing ever.

All is well that ends in pizza.

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe
FYI, Elementary is back tonight.

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe
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.)

I liked the same things, especially, for some reason, Gregson's attitude and especially, "If Joan says it's OK, then OK." Joan running her own show is so freaking cool. So is her apartment.
I'm OK with the new character in terms of the actor and how she's portraying Kitty, but I don't really want a protege, which is better than not wanting a protege and not liking the actor/portrayal. Bright side. How long will that set-up last, I wonder?
All that aside, it was so great to have them back on the screen. Comfort TV.
