My primary objection to Sherlock is that it takes time away from producing Doctor Who. And Moriarty. But mostly the Doctor Who thing.

I'll be more than happy for Moffat to let someone else shoulder the Doctor Who burden and concentrate his showruiningrunning efforts on Sherlock.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

Chris Chibnall is of course slated to take over Doctor Who after next season. I'm somewhat nervous about that, he's never actually written a top-notch Doctor Who adventure (pretty much every Moffat effort during the Davies years gets top-rated).

I'm not a huge fan of Steven Moffat's work over the Eleventh Doctor's tenure (taken overall; there were still some nifty highlights), but the Twelfth Doctor seasons have been a revelation.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

I'm with Billytea.

I've loved Twelve himself, but it was really only toward the second half of last season that I started liking the show under Moffat.

I really only loved the one season with Nine. I didn't watch it before, and only watched a little after, but that season seemed made especially for me. But I loved the Moffat episodes in that.

I adore Nine.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

I'm sadly sort of falling out of love with Sherlock. I still love those two characters and that version of them, but the show itself keeps letting me down. It should be better than it is, there shouldn't be so many wrong notes that sour it.

I didn't know Martin Freeman and Amanda Abbington had split. Sadface.

I did not realize that the new Sherlock had started because they changed the name to "Sherlock on Masterpiece", so my Tivo didn't catch it. Grr. Luckily, I realized earlier this week and can catch the replay on Sunday.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

You guys know you don't have to whitefont anything here after it airs in the US, right? OK then.
