The ghost of Sir Conan Doyle cannot rest.
Date: 07.05.17 -- Day 38
Music: N/A - Informational Video on Moffat's Sherlock

I've found this video quite interesting, mostly because it hit everything I've felt about this adaptation of Sherlockon the nose. I was a huge fan in the beginning, but over time I began to sour on watching because there were these gaps that kept growing larger and larger as I continued to watch. I have this a sad tendency to gloss over the horrible parts of something if there is one thing I connect with. The shine doesn't last, but the excuses in the start haunt me. I'm working on stopping this; it's a process.

Side note: everything the presenter says about Steven Moffat as a writer is on point. We have given Moffat too much power. He will haunt us all, even the ones who tried to warn the rest of us. He's the bad aftertaste of a soda alternative one tries to enjoy but only tastes regret.
