If you are like me, you watched episode 1 of Netflix’s The Irregulars and though, “That Dr. Watson looks familiar….” And if you are a fan of Netflix’s The Witcher, you’ll know why! Royce Pierreson can be seen […]

My first Sherlockian event in quite a while — anyone else attending? I need to get a move on to re-read STUD, because they make hard quizzes that I invariably lose tragically.

If I had to pick one character to make a return in the final season, it would have to be … Kitty, I think?

So … this is very late! I meant to write this up immediately, but other Sherlockian drama got in the way and I wound up putting this off for ages and days. Finally, it’s Spring Break for me, so no teaching and thu […]
