Nobody hates Holmes like Sir Arthur hates Holmes.

“John, we have to hide. Moriarty is coming.”

Sherlock…Trek?  Star…lock?  IDK. 

I REALLY DON’T KNOW.

I had a hard time deciding who would be what.  I have no logical explanation for any of this.  Derp, derp.

PS: Mycroft is the Captain. Yeah. IDK.

PPS: Maybe I should have made Lestrade ‘Command’ instead of ‘Operations’ but hell, it’s security and Scotty was a redshirt!  Gotta love the operations guys. :)

i don’t think you understand

doyle didn’t give a fuck about sherlock

guys, he fucking hated that shit

seriously, his ghost would probably be overjoyed if we made a scat porn version of it

“You may marry him, murder him, or do anything you like to him,” is the exact quote he said to William Gillette when Gillette asked him if he could marry Holmes off.

Yes.

widowsnakehole:

so if there’s anyone out there like me

who is actually really excited about Lucy Liu being cast as Watson

please come hang out with me under my beautiful sparkly umbrella of pure pumped-upedness

there will be juice

#i’ve said before i’ll take any adaptation of sherlock holmes no matter how i get it 

LET ME LOVE YOU, MY SOUL TWIN

Lucy Liu as Watson on Elementary?

zombiewiththehat:

If it’s for romance, it’s cheap.

If there’s no romance, it’s great!

Basically, sort of.

martinusmiraculorum:

The name is Watson, Joan Watson. Lucy Liu is set to play Sherlock Holmes’ sidekick in CBS’ drama pilot Elementary, whose tweaks to Arthur Connan Doyle’s classic include switching Watson’s gender to female. The project, written by Robert Doherty, is set in present day and stars Jonny Lee Miller as eccentric Brit Holmes, a former consultant to Scotland Yard whose addiction problems led him to a rehab center in New York City.

#having the same torn speculative feelings as everyone else: #YES FOR WOMAN OF COLOR PLAYING WATSON #YES FOR GENDER BENDING #possible oh dear problems for doing these things just to create #a sexualized woman watson #and a heterosexual heteromantic relationship between Sherlock and Watson #just because Watson is a woman #If they’re going to do that #please let it be authentic feeling and in the spirit of ACD’s texts #not for the sake of having the Sherlock Holmes stories sexualized #There’s a difference between doing something like this wisely #and creatively that brings something new and AWESOME to the stories #and doing something to improve ratings #Please please please I want to see a platonic Sherlock Watson in which Watson is a woman army doctor BAMF #Because THAT IS SOMETHING THAT IS A LONG TIME COMING AND PLEASE DO WANT

 #wow the internet imploded while i was napping #lord above #but basically yes #getting a woman of color as a steely army badass in an absolutely central role #the role that is supposed to be the audience’s entry point to the story (although i do wish lucy liu had been holmes instead) #makes me so fucking excited

So yeah all these tags basically.

I mean, I am going to watch it because it’s a holmes adaptation I will watch all of them try and stop me.

But.

Conflicted feelings. 

Also, yes, Lucy Liu would make an amazing, amazing femHolmes. And, hey, America Ferrera would make a perfect femWatson. Why can we not have that?
