Haguile 01/07/12 2:18:00 AM #12:	You want your innocence back? So do I, so do I. I actually sat through the entire thing. It's even worse than it looks. Much worse. I think I've seen every Holmes adaptation ever. Hell, I even have "Young Sherlock Holmes" in DVD. Which is not as bad as it sounds...for the first 45 minutes. Then it goes to hell. Yeah, they definitely do make a ton of references to Holmes in the earlier seasons. The guy who shot House was even called "Moriarty" in the credits I think. Which is a waste of a name. Why call a one off character Moriarty? They should have given that name to a better antagonist. Still, I wouldn't say that those references make the writers obligated to make House a complete Holmes parallel. <cite>Haguile posted [p:639495] in Sherlock &...

Achromatic 01/07/12 2:21:00 AM #13:	I liked Young Sherlock Holmes actually. Sure it kind of exploded but you know, they tried. I like effort. Also Haguile my dear man, you believe Moriarty was a one shot character? Fell for his manipulations I see. Moriarty, you see, is not a mere man, he is an idea. This idea, the perversion of civilization itself, has festered within House for years now. Moriarty's plan was only just beginning! But anyway any writer who has the audacity to even make a whiff of the great Holmes and then make House such a bumbling fool is not worth my respect. -- "intention doesn't matter? clearly your cashier degree did not require a law course." - ND to Joyrock on the legality of drinking a soda before paying <cite>Achromatic posted [p:639496] in Sherlock &...

Haguile 01/07/12 2:28:00 AM #17:	Young Sherlock Holmes just seemed to me like they tried to make a good Holmesian movie then halfway through a producer said "Hang on, we need explosions or else this won't sell. Also, Spielberg really wants to use this new CG thing so...uh yeah. Put an explosive cult or something into the plot." Then after the explosions it immediately returned to being a Holmesian movie(when it had like 5 minutes left) by giving Holmes a reason not to be interested in romance, giving birth to Moriarty and that lovely note at the end about how the movie didn't fit with canon. That was nice of them. Hey, I wouldn't put anything past Moriarty. The man clearly manipulated Watson's mind, since he knows who he is in Valley of Fear but completely forgets who he is by the time they get to Final Problem. I can believe that a one-off character in House with the same name is a master manipulator of everything. I can understand your opinion on the House writers though. <cite>Haguile posted [p:639500] in Sherlock &...

Crossfiyah 01/07/12 10:26:00 AM #44:	There was always a good degree of personal drama. The medical mysteries didn't really take as much of a back seat as they do nowadays, maybe, but I mean how many times can it really be not Lupus? -- "CROSSFIYAAAAAAH!" counter: More times than you've had hot meals and been laid, combined <cite>Crossfiyah posted [p:639527] in Sherlock &...

KingBartz 01/07/12 10:30:00 AM #45:	From: MrSmartGuy \| #036 And WTF Bartz with this hate of Psych. Although the premise is nice and the show had plenty of potential, James Roday is completely insufferable as the lead in this show. His smug superiority that is not mocked but instead glorified is almost as appalling as the constant obscure pop-culture references that are thrown in just for the sake of being pop-culture references, attempting to fool the viewer into thinking the show is funny and witty when it is actually just incomprehensible. Psych represents one of the worst aspects of modern television, and that is the constant pandering and insistances of "Watch me, I'm funny" without doing anything in the show that is genuinely funny. Every laugh feels forced, as if there is some silent force saying, "you should laugh here, this line is a joke." I'll give them credit though; most shows have to use a laugh track to do this. -- SuperNiceDog? More like GuruNiceDog. <cite>KingBartz posted [p:639528] in Sherlock &...

AlecTrevelyan006 01/07/12 10:31:00 AM #46:	At it's peak, House would probably be top of this list for me (haven't seen Sherlock or End Game). But it's gone so far past its prime that I finally gave up this season, and I'd probably put it last right now. I'd also put Psych over Mentalist. So, from what I've seen... Early House > Early Monk Psych > Mentalist > Late Monk (didn't see that much though save the finale) > Late House -- ##Alec Congrats to Guru champ SuperNiceDog!

Tehmoosey1 01/07/12 10:58:00 AM #50:	I think when people talk about how a show was better in early seasons but got so much worse later, it's usually because they're just tired of the show. I've gotten tired as hell of Monk, Psych and House, but I don't think it's from an actual quality drop, just fatigue. Doesn't help that USA always shows them in marathon form, ensuring that people get sick of them even faster. And I really need to watch Sherlock. -- xfd dude, it's just a popularity contest on the internets. -Vlado <cite>Tehmoosey1 posted [p:639533] in Sherlock &...
