Well. There's a reason these guys find themselves on the wrong side of the law, e.g. issues with logic.

Didn't someone here write a little story several weeks ago about Mrs. Hudson crafting little sweaters for Clyde, to satisfy our Clyde-cravings? If I'm right, I'm tipping my imaginary hat to her. .

I don't know how they filmed it, but the colour in Gidget was way more vivid than I remembered, though probably we didn't have a television that could do it justice. Or maybe I just expected to find it tacky from this distance.It has beautifully candy coloured sets and clothes and lovely beach scenes.

Wow, I remember a lot of this. It looked like growing up was going to be a lot of fun. Paula Prentiss is so beautiful, who looks that good when they've got the hiccups. Classic 60s images in the opening credits, balloons, flowers. I loved Richard Benjamin's deadpan delivery, the guy walking across the plank to visit,

I can't remember. But they've had other actors doing more than one appearance. Peter Capaldi, for instance. Are they going to explain that away?

Identical cousins, all the way. I totally missed that reference. I remember the line and I always remembered she'd appeared before as a different character but I didn't get that it was supposed to explain it.

I thought at least a couple of other episodes showed a father-son dynamic between Greyson and Travis — when Travis wanted to propose and Greyson tried to stop him and when Travis needed advice on being romantic, for two.

I don't mind Joan's friends and family. I like that they take her new career in stride.

I really liked this episode. I love that the solution hinged on the jobs report. The sets were lovely and it was full of dense detail about Sherlock and Joan's day-to-day life. Yorkshire pudding, pets, snark, a little redemptive moment for Lestrade and proof that Sherlock listens to the radio — I'm hooked. And a

Isn't that what Holmes is all about? I didn't think he'd just done it, it seemed like something that happened awhile ago.

They give Shirley MacLaine terrible dialogue. I can't stand the anvils hammering on the "Americans embrace change, England is stuck in the past" theme.

Thin Blue Line has its moments. I laughed my head off recently when I saw it. A lot of it was because of a supporting character. I like Rowan Atkinson when he talks, I find him kind of sexy.

I think he murdered her and framed his client so he could get her off and become a big deal lawyer. If that's not it I'd like to know too.

John and George didn't hate the fans. They loved a party and they loved rock and roll. John probably would have added something to the concept. If a corporation was benefiting unduly, from this special my guess is that they might have had a problem with that.

Yes, yes, yes! I was just about to say the same thing. Even contentious is a tad negative. They had a competitive relationship, in the best way.

Joan's backstory of her father was kind of bogus. It was a retread (except different "facts") of the scene in the morgue several episodes back where she told Sherlock about the patient's son who was shaking her down. I found it more moving and revealing when she admitted she'd bought him a car then this rather

Thanks for giving Mickey some love. I totally agree.

That's why he needs to give Mrs. Hudson more hours.

Late watching this! Re going to the kitchen door, I took that as expanding the brownstone set. I can't believe how interested I was in discovering this part of the house. I kept rewinding it to check out the space — the patio stones, the odd antique yet utilitarian bench or shelf. Very well done! So I figured that was

For what it's worth, the series was 3,000 times better than the stories it was based on.
