im not criticising brilliant minds because i haven't even watched an episode yet, but i sincerely cannot imagine a less appealing endorsement than "its like house if everything that made house awesome was removed" like hey guys you wanna watch this zombie apocalypse movie but with the zombies taken out? yeah its just a group of people in a run club. house if he was nice and not addicted to drugs. well ok. let me show you the sinstine chapel without all that fucken paint i guess

I can’t remember if I’ve said this before but I think that if you make a Batman 1920s AU then you have to take into account that Bertie Wooster often spent time living in New York and Gotham City is just New York Noir and Bruce Wayne would probably cultivate the acquaintance of Bertie Wooster because Bertie is exactly the sort of person Bruce wants people to think he is, so it’s both birds of a feather camouflage and because he wants to observe Bertie for behavioural ideas.

Bertie, ray of sunshine that he is, thinks Bruce is jolly good fun and really quite barmy, but he already has a friend called Barmy and he can’t manage two Barmies so he affectionately dubs him Batty.

Consequently Bruce exists in a state of nagging uncertainty as to whether Bertie is the golden-hearted silly ass he so transparently appears to be, or is in fact one of his villains, knowing who he is and taunting him.

going on pinterest and specifically searching for “sherlock holmes 2009” or “granada holmes” and still seeing bbc sherlock pop up everywhere must be some sort of human rights violation. your honor that is not sherlock holmes that is an edgy twink who thinks being a sociopath consists of being not very nice to people some of the time

The way Holmes textually canonically frequently regularly and often without hesitation commits crimes and/or protects criminals because he likes them, he thinks it's a silly thing to be criminalised for, he's bored, the police annoy him, he's gay, he's been drinking his respect women juice, or it was a really funny crime is just... Perfect of him actually

Just started reading Sherlock Holmes and all the adaptations are wrong. This man is a delight. He gets excited about hemoglobin and is ecstatic at the thought of Watson as a roommate. He purposefully forgets how the solar system works so he has more room in his brain for crime. He shows Watson the dirt stains on his trousers and he can tell what part of London they come from based on color and consistency. (As far as i can tell Watson didn't ask, Sherlock just gets back from walks and tells Watson about the stains unprompted.) The text specifically says "Holmes was certainly not a difficult man to live with." Why does every adaptation make him unpleasant and rude, he's literally just eccentric. He's such a goober, I love him.

It was also Brett’s idea to call out Watson’s first name, ‘John’, when he emerged from his near-fatal experiment in the story.
