Am I the only crazy person who just wants more books? I will take the show, but I really liked the books more than Season 3 and possibly the movie (although I think I would have liked the movie as a book?)
I'd rather stay home and watch television. It's often funnier than killing stuff.

I think I would also have liked the books as limited run tv series?

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
Kareem Abdul-Jabbar wrote a book about Mycroft Holmes. Got it for Christmas but haven't read it yet.
I never watched Veronica Mars. I suppose I need to add it to the To Binge list.

Oh! I'll have to check it out.
I enjoyed Veronica Mars for a bit, in particular the delightful dialog, but soured on it in the concluding episodes. I don't know whether I'll be there for a reboot. Probably read a bunch on it first.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.
Watched the new version of Magnum, P.I., which was fine. Jay Hernandez sounds very much like Tom Selleck, which is sort of unsettling. He's also 8+" shorter, so more like mini-Magnum.
Rick is played by Zachary Knighton from Happy Endings, which is fun. The best part of the show is Perdita Weeks as a kickass version of Higgins.

Glad you liked it, DX. It's on my DVR but I haven't watched yet. I wasn't sure whether to prioritize it. Pleased to hear it doesn't suck.

There's just something about the new Magnum that I don't like. He just seems really smarmy from the commercials. I need to watch a few of the old eps to see if the "lovable rogue" that I remember from my childhood is really just a cocky asshole. Which I fear.

Selleck (and Magnum) had charisma by the bucket. You could even see it when he was playing Lance White on Rochford. Mini-Magnum doesn't charis at all. The supporting cast is good, though, especially Weeks.

Ugh. I am so tired of watching (or not watching) shows where the lead is trash, but the supporting case is good.

Ok, I'm only a quarter into season 6 of Elementary, but I am really enjoying Joan's suits.
