Actually, there was a pamphlet by John Knox that used that phrase first. Never read it, but have seen it referenced elsewhere.
That's where the Laurie King novel got it, yeah.

John Knox, yeah, that's the one. All I could remember was "anti-Catholic" and now I'm not even sure that's right.

Oh, I'm pretty sure he was ... anti-Catholic and a multitude of others.

On Elementary, I was disappointed when Luke Duke didn't turn out to be the killer (going by the "most famous guest star" theory). Though perhaps Tom Wopat wasn't the most famous guest star (unless you're a woman who grew up watching Dukes of Hazzard). (And, now that I think about it, Reed Diamond wasn't the killer in his episode, either.)
I absolutely loved when neuro-atypical Fiona told Sherlock "I don't know WHAT you are." I've always thought JLM plays Sherlock as neurodiverse in one way or another.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.
I didn't even realize it was Wopat until reading your post.

I recognized Wopat, and was with Steph, thinking that he would be the killer.

I did not recognize him. I looked up who he played and I still don't know, the character name did not register

I have loved the stars too fondly to be fearful of the night.
Wopat was the arms dealer playing tennis while they talked - but I only knew that because I read the board first and was looking for him. I think Elementary has done a great job with guest stars lately - Katherine Erbe, John Heard, Michael O'Keefe in for a single scene - and none of them were the killer (or at least not the one they were looking for)

Thrive to spite them
I'm finally catching up on the past few seasons of Doctor Who. I miss Amy and Rory. I don't like Clara. I despite the whole Clara leads a double life and actively lies to Danny.
Hated Clara was in love with the Doctor and freaked when he got old but there was Madame Vastra which was bonus points.
Not sure if I like the current Doctor. I mean I think I like Peter what his name's acting but the weird manic energy mixed with anger and attempts at detachment don't work for me. Or maybe because I'm sick.
I want...a companion that is not from current times and in her 20s and from Earth. Alien would be good. And more stuff going on in space. These episodes based around the school are way less interesting than the UNIT episodes.
