Sherlock

"Stop talking, you're lowering the IQ of the whole street."
"Look at you lot, you're all so vacant! Is that what it's like to not be me, it must be so relaxing!"
"Dear God, what's it like in your funny little brains, it must be so boring?" 
"Shut up! You're thinking, it's annoying."


In case you don't know, these are all quotes from Sherlock Holmes in BBC's Sherlock. It's a wonderful, wonderful, addicting television show, starring Benedict Cumberbatch as Sherlock Holmes and Martin Freeman as Doctor John Watson.

 It's all set in the 21st century, so there's of course differences between it and the Sherlock Holme's movies, which are all set in the Victorian era, but they remain fairly cannon to the books. If you have any interest in anything Sherlockian, you most definitely want to check it out.

 If you don't get BBC (like me), you can try your local Barne's & Noble for season DVDs. Season one and two are available, but Season three has yet to be realeased on television, let alone DVD.

It's my current obsession, so you may hear a bit more about it. I'll try to avoid fangirling, but you may want to check these out: Dr. John Watson's blog and Sherlock's Website. They're really really neat. Oh, and if you live outside of the UK, to view the videos on Watson's blog go to youtube and look up The Blog of Doctor John Watson. There will be three video's that come up first, those are the ones you want :)
