When you put almost nothing in your beat, then it's literally a metronome. That means if sped up or slowed down, anything in 4/4 will go to your beat. YOU KNOW NOTHING

The Davies era was revolutionary for making the companions, arguably the only relatable characters, into the primaries, and the Doctor into this mythical creature that he is. In fact, once the companions became old hat, you still had the humans in each new story as the focus, and it was always heartbreaking when…

She's more likely Echo from a strictly visual/heritage standpoint. They might go for her first, Elektra second, so they can distance themselves from the Affleck film before doing that story correctly. http://i657.photobucket.com…

Green Lantern blew but in no way was it grim or gritty. Literally NO WAY. Just because something's set in night time scenes doesn't make it grim or gritty, and it was in no way realistic. Not that Green Lantern should be, but that's not why it sucked. Ryan Reynolds should've been playing the Flash if anyone. Hal…

Offhand, I've got the ole generalized notion over time thing which isn't solid, so I'll see if I can remember them. Sherlock is particularly one of those shows, Doctor Who on occasion, though it is also guilty of the other technique (in fact that may account for its surge in popularity). The Fall, Touching Evil. Some…

For clarity: there are lots of characters who are supposed to be skilled or hyper-intelligent supercops or doctors in US shows, but are shown doing regular police work in a room full of people who don't seem to have been trained to do their jobs. House, the Sherlock of medicine, is the best portrayal I've seen of an…

I don't recall talking about what you specifically find dumb. I recall straight up talking about how "smart" is portrayed on each show, and what I meant to be implying was the ratings from each nation. Consistently, UK & Japanese entertainment elevate their characters to almost superheroic levels of intellect and…

Yes my British nationalism. I am American. However, like an American with decent taste, I can see that while Elementary is a perfectly fine show, it is hindered a) by its long schedule and b) by its network. NBC takes risks, CBS, Fox, and ABC take one risk, accidentally, ride it until it dies, then try to repeat it ad…

On a nearly cancelled show on NBC, a network that has been trying to figure out how to normalize that show since it premiered, and has been floundering so hard as a network they are back to taking chances (see: Hannibal & Dracula). Also, Abed is not the lead, though Jeff comes close to an American Sherlock type.

Yes, because Elementary's mysteries are so complex and intricate. It is one step above Castle. This series of Sherlock was originally announced as its last, and I could feel it through both of the first two episodes — that the mysteries were taking a backseat to characters growing and completing their emotional…

I think you're bringing a lot of that to the text, not taking it from the text. Sherlock doesn't address the issue at all, people ask John who simply seems annoyed at being misidentified consistently. It's funny because of regular people's assumptions about them and a commentary on the past century of people bringing…

THIS. They essentially tried to pass off playing it safe with the extremely complicated homoerotic tension as an "edgy" decision. The way a female Robin in a Batman show would conveniently eliminate the homosexual pedophilic undertones. Sherlock confronts these things head-on. Sherlock is asexual, Watson is straight,…
