This yuppie hipster modern day sherlock is blasphemy!!
I'm reading the original four novels and I'm on the third now. Am I doing this hipster thing right?I just started reading the stories today...quite a lot better than any of the television.
I like it. Mybe this is a hipsterthing? Series gets popularity and some people deem it crap while giving bizarre reasons? Honestly I dont see it. Sofar this season seems roughly the same as the last ones. Minus the random casesolving, but the characters and the dialogue are there.
British TV shows are the worst. I'm sure you can't name even a single decent british TV show, they're all crap.

Bizarre reasons ? Seriously what the main protagonist says sometimes is as believable as "This man died with his hand turned 90 degrees eastward therefore he must be muslim". I grew fond of another, quite similar series called "The Mentalist" but somehow this Sherlock character is insufferably pretentious while the mentalist is just a good guy happy douchebag, even though they have about the same role in the two series.I wasnt really refering to u, since well we cant all like the same things. I was refering to those that liked the first seasons and claim the current is bad. I again dont like Mentalist. I've watched a few episodes and it feels incredibly generic to me. I mean by god, Teresa for instance is a totally bland character(based uppon those episodes ive watched). Sure some of this stuff in Sherlock doesnt make sense and he is a complete ass, but it's quite entertaining.

I loved first 2 seasons, but the last one is crap, period. According to me ofc :P And I have a impression that most of fans - or at least those whose opinions I've read - are disappointed by last season. "Hipsterthing"? Bizarre argument.Why is it worse than the first 2 seasons? I found the quality identical.

Sherlock is an ass in the books too <3
Season 3 started on new years and has finished now on British TV :P im sure netflix doesn't get it instantly. And lets be honest a lot of people who believe they are smarter and better than others act like complete superior assholes (just read some of xants posts) :D Sherlock is an ass in the books too <3

You really haven't watched Doctor Who or Top Gear (not the 'murrican one) for example? Whoa, boy you don't know what you are missing!I don't care about Doctor Who hipster shit, I don't watch it and never will. The british Top Gear is indeed the best and most funniest show about cars, I gotta agree there.(click to show/hide)

Also my post wasn't anti-british, they just tend to mess up good TV show ideas because they don't have the means and actors at their disposal like Hollywood/US and just do a bad job in general. They still have a great sense of humor and some of the best musicians. :D

Poirot is good mystery.As someone who has watched all of them at least twice, I agree wholeheartedly. The mysteries are varied in quality and sometimes similar, but the characters are fantastic and makes me want to watch it over and over again.
