It is a show where I very much want to watch it to its conclusion for Sherlock and Joan’s relationship, but honestly I think it’s just a case of wishing that it wasn’t 24 procedural episodes to get through every season when what I really care about is the characters and their relationship to one another. I did think that having so many episodes really worked in the shows favour when it came to the first season, because that meant that they could spend so much time on the bond gradually growing between them, but in seasons 2 and 3 I’m wishing that the episode order could have been cut to a more manageable 18-20 episodes frankly. 24 per season is an awful lot of cases :P
And I’ve seen a few people say the same and I’m curious, what was it you didn’t like about Nancy Drew?
I like that Ned was in it which I really liked in the books. The show is a bit slow for me. It has a plot but I just think maybe too many things going on. It is centered on one story but attached to others small things as well. It does have suspenseful moments as well. I guess it isn't doing it for me like the books did and the Nancy Drew/Hardy Boys hour back in the day. I don't know if the CW will renew it. The ratings are not good from what I have read.
Ah okay, that’s a shame as I figured that it would be a reasonably big hit for them with the Riverdale connection, but then I’m never sure what actually consists of a hit for the CW. I know they used to make a lot of money through their deals with Netflix, but I’m not sure what’s happening with that any more as they no longer seem to be putting their new shows on Netflix (not in the U.K. at least), and even their formerly successful Netflix shows like Dynasty aren’t being added weekly any more
And I used to enjoy the books as well, that’s why I’ve been so curious about checking it out :)
Happy new year. Oh American Horror Story is a wild ride. Hope you enjoy. I really liked the new Roswell. I loved Big Little lies s 1 but everyone seems to hate s 2 so I haven't seen it.
I didn’t hate the second season, I actually thought that it started pretty strongly even, but then it just seemed to fizzle out towards the end and never really come to anything. It’s not a bad season of tv I don’t think, but people’s reactions have been coloured by how unnecessary it feels when season 1 worked perfectly as it was.
Supposedly there were a lot of problems between the scenes too with the new directors work being edited in order to bring it more in line with the previous directors work, and so it just ended up feeling like there wasn’t the same consistent vision as season 1 had
With American Horror Story, you can probably watch a lot of the earlier seasons concurrently or out of order but I would recommend that you do Coven (3) before Apocalypse (8) as Apocalypse contains too many spoilers for Coven.
I’m not sure what’s the best way of going about it at the moment, normally I would watch them all in order, but tbh I watched the first episode of Asylum and wasn’t all that into it... It seems like it’s a lot of people’s favourite, but that’s when it kind of hit me that I’m not sure if I’m that into the idea of an anthology show with a whole new set of characters every season when that’s generally not what appeals to me about tv if that makes sense? I prefer following the same characters, falling in love with them and really getting invested in what happens to them

Elementary was good for me but like you lagged for me as well in later seasons. The final season did the show a lot of justice for me anyway.
I did watch Nancy Drew but may stop after this season. Not what I had intended. And I wanted to start The Handmaids tale but hadn't got that far.
