I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

That was great. Im not sure I like Joan's method of dealing with Moreland, though.

Why isn't everyone pelting me with JOY, dammit? - Zenkitty

I LOVED how Sherlock mocked the plot of a comic book where the hero plunged to his death over a waterfall, locked in the arms of his nemesis.

Best shoutout evah!

I just got to the part where Joan did the stupid thing. Oh, Joan.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

I like how Joan always insists that its her BROTHER who is a geek.

I only like her bad choice because this could get very interesting.

All is well that ends in pizza.

That was great. Im not sure I like Joan's method of dealing with Moreland, though.

Yes, but Moreland will not expect it of her.

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.

In some ways I can sort of imagine Moreland having a sort of amused respect for Joan, particularly since her motivation is to protect Sherlock (and herself).

the hardest to learn / was the least complicated

Finally watched last week's Elementary!

I LOVED how Sherlock mocked the plot of a comic book where the hero plunged to his death over a waterfall, locked in the arms of his nemesis.

HILARIOUS.

I like how Joan always insists that its her BROTHER who is a geek.

Yeah, you KNOW she was just as geeky as he was.

Sherlock's comment about how superheroes should be dead from cancer -- I had a similar conversation with Holli at the DC F2F.

HILARIOUS.

I alluded to this on your FB last week. I could not spoil that for you!

Oh, god DAMN this was a good episode this week. (I mean the interpersonal stuff with Sherlock and Fiona, because at this point the procedurals are just extra for me. Though it was just fine.)

Calli: My people have a saying. A man who trusts can never be betrayed, only mistaken.Avon: Life expectancy among your people must be extremely short.

The Catch: much more fun than I thought. Banal premise, but great execution. (Fiance of PI turns out to be con-man who took her for everything - her personal savings and also security information about her top clients. And then she gets her money back and more. With him now having incentive to try and get her again.

So now we have a continuing battle between con-man and detective, where I presume they will both keep hitting each other in vulnerable places. With underlying sexual tension.

But what I hate is that that he is shown ans still loves her and really strong hints are there that she still loves him, even if she won't admit it to herself. I know Blacklist managed to sort of pull that off successfully. But waspand was a minor character, and clearly NOT the main charactrs equal. Tome, the well-matched opponents with sexual tension works well. I kind of feel like twue wuv, in this will spoil the fun. I think it works better if they are never reconciled. (Overcome by passion and having occasional sex, and occasionally being forced into uneasy alliance might be OK, though not too soon, but don't want those crazy kids to get back together permanently.)
