Giles, if you would like to get by in American society, then you are going to have to follow our traditions. You're the patriarch. You have to host the festivities, or it's all meaningless.

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs

BC is working some excellent scruff in this episode of Sherlock.

"Cry havoc and let slip the boobs of war!" -- Miracleman

Just watched the new ep. I am disappointed the writers. The affair felt really out of character for John. I think that they could have handled it better, perhaps an innocent friendship on John's part that turned into an emotional affair. I didn't even see any reason for John to be unhappy with Mary.

Well, John certainly got more to do this time, although I didn't care for the suggestion that it was all a setup. Mrs. Hudson is now who I want to be when I grow up.

Where do you come from? Where do you go? What is your scene, baby? We just gotta know.

That has to be the most policy-wonky episode of Elementary ever.

That which does not kill you should RUN

We watched the last Sherlock episode last night, and the best I can say is -- it makes me feel better about my own fucked-up family. Also, while I'm glad Moriarty was only in flashbacks/videos, I remain firm in my total dislike of this iteration of Moriarty and would have been much happier without him in the episode at all.

Mrs. Hudson continues to be a goddamn treasure, though.

Suits: Am I remembering incorrectly, but Mike doesn't even have an undergraduate degree, right?

Right. I seem to recall that he had to drop out of college when his grandma got sick?

Thanks, that's what I thought I remembered. So how the heck is he qualified to even substitute teach? And why is everyone talking about him taking the bar? Also, this show is at least 50% less fun without Jessica.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Wait, did I somehow quit Suits last year? It didn't show up on my DVR, so maybe!

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

It just came back last week, Jesse.
