You're wrong about River. River's not on the ship. They didn't want her here, but she couldn't make herself leave. So she melted... Melted away. They didn't know she could do that, but she did.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

I haven't watched any Bones this season. Is there any reason why I should? I'm thinking I could stand to lose a show or two from my queue.

Amy Acker has been scary fun on Persons of Interest.

I am super rolling my eyes at H50.

I was just telling Dana earlier today that I can't watch H50 with my full attention because then I start noticing that they aren't jumping the shark, no, they're parasailing that fucking shark.

I'm acquiring the theory that the people behind this American Sherlock Holmes have never actually read Sherlock Holmes.

Ginger, I just posted on FB that I'm finding it oddly compelling -- as long as I ignore the fact that it's supposed to be about Sherlock Holmes. As a generic procedural, I'm actually enjoying it. Which could just be the Aidan Quinn factor. He's aged verrrry nicely.

I'm enjoying the touches of Holmes canon and that they aren't reproducing the traditional cases.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I'm also enjoying Elementary -- it's much more House than Conan Doyle, but I like it!

Although every time she says "companion," I can't help but think of Inara.

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.

Given that they played a few bars of 'watching the dectectives' at the end of the fist episode,they are definitely thinking subtext.

the only experience I have of "Watching the Detectives" is the show History Detectives on PBS.
