For the Sherlock fans
Guys, guys, you have to download the unaired pilot and watch it immediately. As a writer, it's fascinating to see which bits of dialogue were there from the beginning and which got added later. Hint: there's a major difference in the conversation in Angelo's cafe (also, a charming additional bit of characterization for Angelo). There are some new close-ups of Lestrade and a shot framed in a way that will make the Lestrade/John shippers squee. Anderson has a dead weasel on his face. And most of all, Cumberbatch's performance is NOT the same Sherlock Holmes that we got in the aired version. I won't spoil anybody by dissecting how I think it was different, but trust me, it was.
I really need a Sherlock icon. Possibly several. It feels like cheating to gank any of the ones I've seen so far, although the cartoon ones are my favorites... Sherlock with the shock blanket, and the eyeballs in the microwave. I'll do much more boring screencap ones on Wednesday, as a treat for finishing this endless (well, knee-length) argyle sock I'm working on. Yesterday I calculated that it needed 16.5 more hours... now I'm probably at 14 hrs or so. Self-imposed deadlines FTW! So if anyone wants screencaps of specific bits, let me know and I'll add them to my list.
Hmm, 14 hrs. I have two documentaries to watch, one on Domesday Book and one on Anglo-Saxon artifacts. That should leave enough time to re-watch the entirety of Sherlock twice more. OCD much?
Oh, and I finally got around to starting a delicious, for the sake of sharing Sherlock bookmarks. (Unlike most of my other fandoms, there's nothing here that I'd be reluctant to own up to in public.) It's at http://www.delicious.com/brienzeTX if you're interested.
