Mostly another YT special: fan vids.

Cumberbatched moments: Peter in TTSS. PBS Batch is good for the soul.


Found via Cracked.com's Internet Annoyances Way Older Than the InternetThe Ten Commandments of mystery, written as bylaws of the Detection Club.

Chart: Describing Doctor Who to different people.  Swag: Sherlocked shirts!



YT!  Hmm, seems to be a lot of shipping in these fan vids.  Can't imagine why!  ("Sarcasm." "Yes.")

Funny walk by silvermouse13. Needs government funding. ;)

Emmys; rewatch; a message to John?

Note that this is after Reichenbach: do NOT read unless you've seen all of both seasons!

GPS... and rewatching in past and future.

Cumberbatched moments: (Oh, look at that smile!) ... with tea cups along with never been so jealous. In Third Star. "Staring isn't polite."

The lemon is in play.

If Benedict Cumberbatch voiced GPS.

Those things.  [Dead link as of 2013]

Psssst!  Benedict's in this.  Although link does not mention him, the comments do. :D

We successfully did a rewatch of Study in Pink, Jaeden and SherlockCares and I, Monday evening (10-Sept.).  Only took two hours, amazingly enough!  Lots of fun.

Next rewatch is planned for Emmy night, 23-Sept-2012.

Sherlock is up for 13 Emmy nominations (against Downton Abbey's 14!).  I suspect we'll do Scandal, which is what the Beeb offered the Emmy people.  We'll update on Twitter.

Closing ceremonies. Also: Do not hate the Moff!

Cumberbatched moments:  Completely irresistible person; smiling Benedict (looking tired, alas); and LeathaaarrrrBatch.

Fangirl moments:  This picture tonight and also that pic, and another pic from closing ceremony, along with an Instagram of "our very own Sherlock Holmes".  :D

For fans of Martin and Benedict:  Bland Sherlock fantasies.


NO ONE is allowed to hate the Moff this week.  Hell, for the rest of the decade.  He deleted his Twitter account because of the haters.  (Possibly for another reason, but that seems very probably why.)  What the hell is wrong with people?

Leave the show creators alone, we need them to torture us more because we love their shows.

Do you hear me, InterWeb???  I'm serious.


Remember, we're doing our Sherlock rewatch tonight, Monday 10-Sept around 9pm Eastern.  Details here:  Study in Pink!

Monday rewatch and fic index.

We're planning on a Sherlock rewatch this weekend, either tonight [Friday 7-Sept.] or tomorrow Monday 10-Sept.

Probably in the evening my time, say 9pm EDT. I'm in GMT -4.

Check out the time zone map to coordinate with us. :D It'll likely be in s1, ep to be determined by Kelsey, whose birthday was Friday -- or we'll just do first season in her honor if school and life prohibits her from joining in.


Cumberbatched moments:  Gorgeous!  Love black and white photograph.  That guy from Parade's End, what's his name again?  :D

And in case you weren't abed yet either, Benedict has a message for you.


Spoilers inside for Sherlock season/series 2 and Parade's End!  

If you haven't read the Sherlock fic (older fic, newer fic) over at SherlockCares, then you should.  Most of them are spoiler-free.

My very favorites are the Holmes Boys stories.  Do note that five Holmes Boys stories exist... and that there's at least one post-Reichenbach story (the Dog from July, NOT the Hound) that is nearly guaranteed to cause you major Reichenbach angst.

You have been warned!

Fangirls... Image from PE.

Brief harvest and a rewatch this weekend.

Cumberbatched moments:  Benedict with his hair rather... poofy (how is it that he looks great anyway??). Balancing a chandelier.  More Blond Batch.

London should be flailing. Benedict Cumberbatch Scale of Eloquence.

Another way to tell you're Sherlocked.  ;)

After this point: Spoilers for season/series 2.

In the spoiler zone:  Hobbit tutorial -- fan art of Sherlock merged with JRR Tolkien. Of course.  :D

One Believe in Sherlock image that I'm quite fond of (and purchased) that I handed off to John Watson tonight.

Swift harvest off Twitter; includes Dr Who at BBC mobile.

I don't think any spoilers are in here, but you might want to watch out with the PE (Parade's End) interview and The Hobbit links.  And yes, I missed blogging here, and I missed you all on Twitter a lot, even though Worldcon was all sorts of brilliant and awesome and wondrous.


Cumberbatch moments:  Errant curlA bit of rare UK sun.  Isn't he gorgeousSensuality that killsPerfect faceSoulful stare.  Laughing and looking away from camera.

A poster about... men.

Parade's End:  Interview of Benedict Cumberbatch and Rebecca Hall

Pic of Benedict with some guy taller than him; really!  Benedict hugging peopleReincarnation.

Funny fan art:  Just Say Cheese, Sherlock!

A rare shot of John Watson writing his blog.

BBC mobile launches -- so you can watch Doctor Who there free up to 30 days on your tablet.

The HobbitAll three titles have been announced, also release dates. 


P.S.  We're considering a Sherlock rewatch for this weekend.  Watch Twitter!  It'd be series 1.


ETA:  Neil Gaiman won the Hugo for his Doctor Who ep "The Doctor's Wife" this past Sunday.  Make sure to send Neil congrats!  He's @neilhimself on Twitter.  I told him Congrats! myself when I saw him, but do go ahead and tell him yourself.  Neil's a sweetie, and he deserves to hear more people tell him "Well done!"
