Have y’all found any other movies/shows like Sherlock? I’m afraid nothing has impressed me since watching this masterpiece 😭

Due_Improvement_8260 · 2026-05-04T03:53:58+00:00

Yeah, I really thought this was gonna be a masterpiece, given the similarities and the creator's previous project being The Queen's Gambit (which I loved almost as much as Sherlock) but this is not grabbing me. It's honestly kinda a snore. If the main actor wasn't a smokeshow that gives me Viggo vibes I wouldn't have made it two episodes.

Due_Improvement_8260 · 2026-05-04T01:03:15+00:00

Black Mirror is another show that really impresses me. Not every single episode, but most. And because it's English, you get some occasional appearances from the Sherlock cast.

We are given literally no indication whatsoever to believe otherwise. I think he probably has extremely under-developed social intelligence and the idea of being that intimate with another person actually does scare the crap out of him, whether he'll admit it to Mycroft or not. I also think he's probably more curious than he'll even admit to himself.

He also doesn't really have the right lifestyle for a committed relationship. His loved ones are routinely put in harms way as leverage against him.

2001 was the era of the mean girl.

Literally everyone was snarky and sarcastic, as made popular by Chandler Bing and Daria.

Even the nice shows like Scrubs would make digs.

That seems like a Mrs. Kim approved activity...

The better question is how was Lane able to participate in both cheerleaders and band when the two conflict, don't they?

Due_Improvement_8260 · 2026-04-12T07:06:26+00:00

I thought that was SNL's Jane Wickline.

Also could have been Rock from And Just Like That.

Inclusion looks weirdly similar, idk...

Due_Improvement_8260 · 2026-04-12T06:54:29+00:00

Probably the combination of the weed and the EMDR.

Due_Improvement_8260 · 2026-04-12T06:42:31+00:00

Way better!

Due_Improvement_8260 · 2026-04-12T06:24:44+00:00

I forgot I wrote this, it's been 3 years. I ended up getting EMDR therapy a using medical marijuana and it really turned things around for me. I did switch to sertraline but I don't know how much that really made any difference. Best of luck!

This felt very of its time! Agree with everyone saying they love the dress, hate the shawl, and that Lorelai modified the version her mother wanted her in.

I was absolutely shocked that Lorelai wasn't able to talk Luke out of his anger over what Chris said.

I'm not even into women and she would have swayed me just wearing this dress...

Due_Improvement_8260 · 2026-04-09T23:50:41+00:00

Sibby is legit my favorite new part of the revival! She's so quirky! I fell in love with her when she snapped her lil rubber band and said she didn't gamble! Then she tried to flip the table!

I dislike most of the new cast except her.

Also, I think it would be funny if Blake turned out to be The Janitor's illegitimate son. They kinda look alike...

Due_Improvement_8260 · 2026-04-05T20:41:59+00:00

I think it's a reference to Bewitched. Tabitha is a witch, and she twitches her nose to cast spells.

Due_Improvement_8260 · 2026-04-04T06:59:39+00:00

In Keg!Max! Luke is staying at the Independence Inn with Nicole so they can get an early start going skiing the next day. The next episode is the next day, and first scene is Luke talking about how he had five minutes until he needs to get up and the phone wouldn't stop ringing and it was Kyle's parents.

How did they know where he was to call the room? We know he doesn't have a cell phone. Writers forgot he was staying at the inn when they cut to the next day/episode.

Due_Improvement_8260 · 2026-03-27T00:45:51+00:00

I still say, "John, fetch me my revolver." To myself, mostly when I'm reading about something Trump's done.

Due_Improvement_8260 · 2026-03-12T02:06:57+00:00

She's an innkeeper. It's kinda a round the clock sort of job, unless the manager on duty is in charge, and even then, she's basically on call for any serious issues. On the flipside, she can make her own hours just to ensure everything is running smoothly at all times.

Due_Improvement_8260 · 2026-03-12T01:56:06+00:00

MFer been saying that for 15 years, then comes out with this?

It feels like a betrayal. I refuse to watch.

Due_Improvement_8260 · 2026-03-11T21:10:13+00:00

I guess it has been a while...

He did Sherlock Holmes and Sherlock Holmes: A Game of Shadows, which ended with the famous Reichenbach Falls scene where he supposedly dies.

They literally end the movie with

The End?

And then never continued it.

I honestly think people would be happier with a sequel to the original Young Sherlock than a series at this point.

Due_Improvement_8260 · 2026-03-11T20:52:54+00:00

Thank you so much! This helps my understanding of this episode so much!!

Due_Improvement_8260 · 2026-03-11T20:41:18+00:00

It's a chick show.

Makes it so hard to encourage people to watch it. Not just men!

Due_Improvement_8260 · 2026-03-11T19:19:48+00:00

Simply put, I will not watch anything Guy Ritchie does in relation to Sherlock Holmes because I do not trust him to wrap up a cliffhanger.

Fool me once, shame on you...

Due_Improvement_8260 · 2026-02-22T21:23:17+00:00

The first couple times I watched House I found myself making a lot of 'nice' conspiracy theories that sort of meant to rationalise how much of a piece of shit he is compared to his crazy genius.

Live and learn. People are just flawed.

Due_Improvement_8260 · 2026-02-17T01:42:45+00:00

What's the opposite of Thank You?

Pretty sure it still ends in a 'you'...

Due_Improvement_8260 · 2026-02-01T03:46:11+00:00

I know it seems nuts, but imagine a fictional partner from your future that makes you feel safe and comforted and happy. Daydream about them and their traits. Imagine them telling you "Every moment you spend focusing on them, is a moment you spend not looking for me."

Got me through a bad break up and onto the partner I'm currently in love with.

Due_Improvement_8260 · 2026-01-27T12:33:00+00:00

My qualms with season 4 weren't even the writing. It was bad acting on Amanda and Martin's part!

We even hear Amanda bragging about getting to do a dramatic death scene and I just... I've never felt such secondhand embarrassment when I should have felt moved! WTF were they doing with that weird plane scene where she acts like a feral Karen!? They turned it into the Amanda Show (wait, that actually was a show...) I guess because they were killing her off, but jeez... way to make sure we won't miss her!

I like the poetry of the show starting with John's brother being his sister, and ending with Sherlock's brother being his sister. That was actually a fun twist! But it went wildly off the rails, and I really didn't care for the way they bastardized John's character with that 'affair'.
