The Watsonian Weekly

Our spoiler-filled reviews of CBS Watson's latest dying dictator episode and podcast Sherlock & Co.'s final part of "The Three Garridebs" inspires more chat than usual, even after some big cuts! (Mostly regarding Doctor Who.) When Watson's in trouble, we just talk like conversation will do for him what clapping did for Tinkerbelle. Enjoy! (Or tolerate! Just listen, okay?)

With Sherlock & Co. and CBS's Watson both placing Watson in dire peril with varying degrees of creative ability, we get right to reviewing the current stuff. So let's get to it!

In a test to see if the Watsonian Weekly can record guerilla style like John H. Watson does on Sherlock & Co., we attempt to cover this year's 221B Con in Atlanta, Georgia and manage to give you practically no information. John Watson is a genius!

We're right to our reviews of Sherlock & Co. and CBS's Watson this week, because Watson is in trouble in two shows and we have places to be! 

The bull pups are full of thoughts this week as we find Watson in dire straits in both podcast land and TV land! He may have killed Moriarty in CBS Watson, but he seems to have brought another person back from the dead with just the power of his mind. And Sherlock & Co. Watson could be in for a Moriarty-based hiatus all his own after a very controversial final chapter of "Six Napoleons." Get ready...

It's almost like the bull pups sensed the upcoming tremors in the Watson Force, even though they recorded before the CBS Watson cancellation news.  T'was a week when both Sherlock & Co. and CBS Watson had a few bones. that needed picking! And apologies for the audio quality of this episode -- lower rez due to the high level of Watson content this month!

Things eventually get weird this week as the bull pup who was apparently our grounding influence didn't make it.

Spoilers, spoilers, spoilers as we discuss the latest offerings from Sherlock & Co., Young Sherlock, and Watson for a very long session with the bull pups.

There's a lot of crime to cover this week, between the mid-season opener of CBS's Watson and the last part of Sherlock & Co.'s adaptation of "Stockbroker's Clerk."  How are these people not in jail? But that's a question that gets asked a lot in other venues these days, so maybe we'll forgive Watson and friends this week.

A new play, more CBS Watson on the horizon, and this is not your grandfather's "Stockbroker's Clerk" on Sherlock & Co. And why did that engineer's thumb have to be a story? All this, this week on the Weekly!

It takes very little to get us excited about a single detail on Sherlock & Co.'s latest episode, one name we haven't heard mentioned in all this time, and in "The Stockbroker's Clerk," one of the most lacklustre adventures of Sherlock Holmes? Inconcievable!

Our review of the second half of the Sherlock & Co. "Beryl Coronet" might have some issues about being stuck in a bookshop, like Watson himself. But there might be dinosaurs by the end of the podcast, if you stick around!

What? The Literary Agent's Ten Percent is at the start this time? Get ready to suffer through that voice before we get to Sherlock & Co.'s Beryl Coronet surprises. 

In celebration of a Watson-filled "Musgrave Ritual" on Sherlock & Co., we're also doing a retro-review of the Granada "Musgrave Ritual," since it had Watson joining what was originally a Sherlock-only tale as well. Enjoy all the Musgrave!

Mainly, our review of the third part of Sherlock & Co.'s "Musgrave Ritual," and probably way too much discussion of the thickness of ice . . . especially for winter.

A bit of news, both good and bad, then on to a frigid time at Hurlstone for Watson and a trip to Switzerland for his literary agent.

We cover a whole lot of "M"s this episode as the Montague Street Incorrigibles gather some Watsonians to study moustaches, bull pup Maddy gets a meritous medal (of sorts -- sure, it's a coin, but it's kinda like a medal), we talk about Musgraves, and wind up with a Moriarty mention on a Mediterranean voyage. Suspicious, isn't it?

Get ready for the shortest episode of the Watsonian Weekly in years, harkening back to those days when we talked about Clark Russell novels chapter by chapter . . . but no Clark Russell this time, just a full five or six minutes of nonsense!

We're early this week to finish out reviewing the holiday version of "The Man With The Twisted Lip" by Sherlock & Co., which had to have been the most Christmas-based Sherlock Holmes drama in history. Will it be a new Christmas tradition? Could be!

A little bit of news about the latest meeting of the John H. Watson Society and a lot of reviewing of Sherlock & Co.'s second part of "The Man With The Twisted Lip," and overall a shorter episode to close out the year.

Can "The Man With The Twisted Lip" be done as a Christmas story? We're finding out thanks to Sherlock & Co. And who wrote the worst Christmas story ever, teaching kids about explosives, and what does he have to do with Watson? Compliments of the season, Watsoniacs!

The one thing about Sherlock & Co. -- having killing off Watson's one potential wife, it gets to focus on other aspects of Watson besides his relationships. And this week we got his thoughts on his mother country.

The Bull Pups are reviewing part one of Second Stain on Sherlock & Co., Watson and his Literary Agent probably don't meet, and colorful phrases from one of Watson's earlier cases can serve as fandom titles.

Sherlock & Co. brings their Hound of the Baskerville in for a landing and we're here for it! Also, is Watson being extremely stupid actually a good thing?  An extra long episode gets into all of it, with a special guest for Houndsgiving!

A little news on CBS Watson's coming family member and they into discussion of the penultimate Sherlock & Co. Hound episode. And Schenectady, New York gets it's moment in the Literary Agent's Ten Percent.
