Sherlock season three completed, my first Sherlock season almost real-time, thank you LJ for talking a lot about the first two (wouldn’t have known it existed at all otherwise)! Part three was enormously nice (and a ‘serious one’ this time), yet part two was nice as well, it was not just for laughs, and part one, well.... was nice as a piece of feedback, guess we come to an era when having a habit to look for a fandom when you see a show or something gives one an advantage in enjoying it.
Yes there was lots of Doctor Who in this (and quite some of Sherlock in DW, to be fair), but that’s not simply the writer Steven Moffat being over-proud of himself. The Doctor was partially based on Sherlock Holmes almost from the beginning and cosplayed him decades ago, so that is just a circle closing (and Moriarty now is more Master-y than the last DW Master was, and based on him a lot, by the feel of him). Well I was so excited after Sherlock 1&2 I went to see the other series by Moffat featuring Doctor the 11th (and then it just transformed into sitting through 50 years of TV history endeavour, I’m somewhere in 1980 by now). So now I do not miss this part of the fun in Sherlock.
Of course it is not just this, we had the New Testament all over the 3.1, and then there was a total John Harrison look on the appropriate moment in 3.3!
And the dragon. There is one right in the room.
So, well, what is the difference between those two modes of Moffat controlling people’s... cut. The difference between the shows is that DW has even less logical constraints, leading to even more wild writing, and, unfortunately, the regular episodes are much shorter and frequently end up cramped. So if you want an exciting both fun and serious almost-fairytale, you can watch both, but if you want it to look more like a coherent and sane storytelling, go for Sherlock. What’s more, it is just nine quite separate episodes, you can see just one and leave, there is no danger you’ll get stuck in the Time Vortex (50 yrs of TV, guess I’ve mentioned this). (Yet they say some people started reading the books all over again).
And that’s an opportunity to see what a TV series nowadays is! ‘A TV series’ was synonymous to a piece of something unworthy for years for certain people (somehow managing to overlook the miniseries 17 Moments of Spring). I guess that time is already the past.
And there is the music they have.
