O.o

This new Sherlock Holmes series, that's done in Modern Times? Wow. This may be the best versions of Holmes and Watson I've ever seen. And I'm only 20 min in.

I've heard great things about it, but haven't really gone looking for it. Now I must do this, as soon as I get home from rehearsal!

Yes, yes you really must. I hadn't thought about it much until Twig mentioned it. And....wow, I love this so much.

I am apparently incapable of finding a place to watch it! Google fails me.

I am loving it to bits, particularly the interaction between Holmes and Watson.

It was tempting to call in sick to work today so that I could stay home and watch the second one. Damn my ethics!

I love all the shoutouts to things like the three pipe problem and Watson's Wandering Wound.

Dang, I need a Holmes icon.

Okay, that's two evil influences saying to check it out.

Oh! Speaking of Holmes...

Dunno how up to date you are on the current Detective Conan chapters, but they're currently in London.

Conan bouncing around the Sherlock Holmes Museum? Completely Adorable. ^__^

Ooh cool. I'm still back in Volume (checks bookcase) ...65.

As for Sherlock...they did a really good job updating the canon for modern times (at least as far as the first special went, I haven't seen the second which I hear is a bit fail-y in some aspects). And I think the more you know about the original stories the more there is to squee over.
