Thanks, but I still don't like it.

Well, that's clever, I guess.

Jeff, of course you are free to leave any time. In fact, you need not even enter this thread if you don't like the subject matter. Bye!

We can all say that about our favorite shows. One could say that about Spong Bob Squarepants if one liked the show sufficiently.

Except this one wins awards. Pretty much the entertainment industry says it is not just me.
--- Quote ---I understood from Nussbaum that they're showing things to the audience. Sorry, but that all still sounds rather too cartoonish for my taste.
Interesting. Everything I've read about the show dwells on that aspect so much that I would have thought it happened more frequently than that.
You've said that already. ...
All that "defending with his life" seems an addition. I don't recall Dr. Watson ever getting in that much trouble.

He doesn't. He's in danger by association. Sherlock has a lot of dangerous enemies.

High-functioning Asperger's would be my guess.
Is the lesson over? Can I go now?

Yes! How the floating text works, and that there isn't as much gay inuenndo as commentary had led me to believe.
Doesn't make the show any more attractive to me than it was before, however.
Enjoy your show--and do read Emily Nussbaum's review. (Hint [Spoiler?]: I took it to be favorable.)

I'll remember that the next time I come across something that I think might interest those of you who are fans of the show. ... >:(
