No Shit Sherlock!

[disneyspy]

i just watched the first episode of season 2 on PBS,it's from the BBC series masterpiece and it's the best thing on TV,when the hell did the brits start making our tv look like shit?

you can watch episodes of it at http://www.sidereel.com/Sherlock_(2010)

I think Brits make better tv because they go for quality over quantity. They take an idea and make 3-6 really good eps and maybe you can get 2 or 3 seasons out of it. American shows love to drag shit out making many eps boring and delay the story from moving along. Perfect example would be Missing. Show could have been great and all done in 6 or 7 eps. They stretched that shit out over 2 seasons for a total of 20+ eps.

i agree,the british office did it right with 1 season

[spoon]

one season huh?

and it's not as if people have everything written and ready for a series in an effort to stretch them out, they simply last longer in the states as they suck every ep out possible

the brits just move on faster as writers for both put a season together in much the same way

[disneyspy]

yes one season,ricky gervaise did one and done and it was good

our OFFICE still pretends like the're making a reality show that has never aired after what? 8 years? and the show has gone downhill since the first season which was nothing but a copy of the british OFFICE in the first place

[spoon]

not one

[disneyspy]

not one

ya they had two "series" but they ran in less than half a year and only 12 episodes

[hanso]

Can't remember the last Brit show I liked, been a looooong time.


Wonder if the Blowhard watched this stuff, because I'm with him shows like 'Doctor in the House'

[fezident]

I remember this series. I loved the shit out of it two or three years ago or whenever the heck it first aired. I didn't even know they produced a 2nd season. Very cool.

If ya ask me.... it's far superior to the RDjr movies. They are shot well, but that's about it. Guy Ritchie smells.

Wasn't it in color also? I see b&w when I see replays, but seem to remember it in color.

No, is it the word it, or the abv. as in the work term?

I.T. like the job.

Sherlock is great, but the episodes that air on PBS are edited for time. I downloaded the original broadcasts the same nights they aired in the UK several months ago.

Series 1 is currently on Netflix and those are the complete episodes.

[fezident]

The creators did an AMAZING job of weaving modem technology into the world of Holmes.
It's extremely well done.

saw sherlock s1:e1 last night. it was 90 minutes of awesome. are there only three episodes in the first season or is netflix being a dick?

yes, 3 episodes in season one, 3 more in season two. but to be fair, the episodes are 90 minutes long each.

I hear tell that more episodes may be coming soon.

edit: a little research shows season 3 won't go showing for at least a year

[MIKEYDAKEN]

not till 2013 steven moffat is a busy man.

[newport king]

BBC programs rule. I stumbled on Top Gear on BBC America. Id seen the shitty US version with Anthonys friend. Their version is 1000x's better and very politically incorrect. I may not get all of the pop culture references, but that hasnt stopped me of DVRing the shit out of that show.

[KnoxHarrington]

I love how seamlessly they move the stories into the modern age. I mean, Dr. Watson was injured serving as an Army doctor in Afghanistan in the original stories too. That place has always been a shithole.

[Misteriosa]

yay! finished S2:E1. sooo great :happy: i read the original stories, so im familiar with the tales. i like how moffat twists the cases around.

[disneyspy]

not till 2013 steven moffat is a busy man.

tssss whats he busy doing,sitting on toffats? tssss

[Misteriosa]

saw S2:E2 on monday and S2:E3 last night. LOVED IT!

i would just like to say

:wub: :wub: :wub:

[disneyspy]

just watched S2 E3,wow! what a rollercoaster of an episode,pisses me off we have to wait forever for the next season,3 episodes a year just seems crazy when a show is this great,i havent felt this way about a show since LOST,season1

[thepaulo]

They conform in some ways to the original stories but the S2 E3 leaves me a little pissed off brcause I don't see how they will resolve it without some major bullshit,

all i can think of is maybe where he told that nurse that now it was her turn to do him a favor

[disneyspy]

well american tv copies all the good brit shows,i'm hoping this is half as good as sherlock http://www.imdb.com/title/tt2191671/

[cougarjake13]

So Watson is a chick

[Furtherman]

I finally got around to cracking open these DVDs over the weekend and yea - WOW - just an amazing show all around. I watched the first season and the first episode of the second - A Scandal In Belgravia, which had me standing up and clapping at the end. Brilliant.

Now I only have two left.... I hate to watch them so quickly! Looks like we have to wait until next year to get more episodes - with Sherlock filming the new Star Trek and Watson in the Hobbit.



So Watson is a chick

That would be the new American series, with Johnny Lee Miller as Sherlock and Lucy Lu as Watson. It's just not gonna compare with the BBC series. It'll be dumbed down for American audiences and probably still be cancelled.

[Misteriosa]

Yeah, buddays!! Season 3 previews of Sherlock on BBC. I've linked the site; whether or not you want to see them is up to you...

Ok, I saw the first two seasons and could have sworn they'd done a third that never made it over. Thanks.
