TV Slut: Sherlock


I started watching the Sherlock series from BBC which continues to put out amazing series such as Luther and Being Human. D & H got me into this show which I had kinda heard about but never made any real effort to watch. What I know about the character of Sherlock Holmes is from random information as a child like “Hat, pipe, Watson, English, Moriarty, some dogs in Baskerville, and magnifying glass” and the Guy Ritchie Sherlock Holmes films. So when I started watching the series I didn’t know quite what to expect. I was pleasantly surprised at how good it is!

Sherlock is a dick. Seriously, this guy is not someone you’d want to be around in real life. If you were you’d punch him in the neck. But he is good at his job and has shown that he has the ability to fight so maybe throat chops wouldn’t be a good idea. He calls himself a “consulting detective, the only one in the world.” When the cops cant figure out cases they call him. Some of the cops hate him which of course he doesn’t care about one damned bit.

DVDiculous: Sherlock Holmes: Game Of Shadows


I don’t know why the hell it took me so long to finally get around to watching Sherlock Holmes: Game Of Shadows. I enjoyed the hell out of the first one and knew this one would be good. Ever since Guy Ritchie split with Madonna he’s been making good films again. And this was no exception.


Robert Downey Jr. is back again as the title character with Jude Law as Watson. The two of them work so damned well together it makes me sick. The movie starts with Holmes being stranger than we last saw him, almost as if his ass is losing his mind. There have been a series of explosions that have been killing high ranking officials. He also finds out that Watson is getting married.
