I was determined not to like Sherlock, being a huge fan of the 1980's Granada TV Sherlock Holmes adaptations starring Jeremy Brett. However, I caught reruns on some random digital channel over the holiday, and I must say it's been done with a real affection for the source material. It's not quite Holmes for the purist, but I have really enjoyed it.

The last season of Sherlock drew me in, without my even noticing it. The new season is just about right with the humour and Benedict Cumberbatch is a revelation.

True Detective on HBO with Woody Harrelson and Matthew Magonhay....superb drama. Unsure on the correct spelling of Matthews surname though!

Went to see the Tiger Lillies performing Lulu - A Murder Ballad at the West Yorkshire Playhouse last night. Highly recommended; if you get to see them. Beautifully sinister.

Hey, you. Hope you're well. That's one of my favorite shows - it's like The X-Files crossed with Altered States.SINsister wrote:

If you're still in the first half of season 1, it gets better. Much, much better. So much better! AVOID ALL SPOILERS
