THIS SHOW IS A FUCKING GIFT.

THIS SHOW IS A FUCKING GIFT.

IRENE IS AN ART FORGER.

IRENE IS AN ASSASSIN.

IRENE IS MORIARTY.

THIS IS NOT A DRILL. I REPEAT, IRENE ADLER IS MORIARTY.

BETTER THAN I HOPED FOR. YOU WERE BETTER THAN I HOPED FOR.

HOLMES CONTINUED TO HAVE ACTUAL FEELINGS AND PRIORITIZE EMOTIONAL NEEDS AND TRUTHS OVER ~BEING RIGHT~ AND ~SOLVING THE CASE~.

HE NAMED A BEE SPECIES AFTER WATSOM.

I DON'T KNOW HOW TO FEEL EMOTIONS CORRECTLY AT THE MOMENT.

THAT WAS AN HOUR AND A HALF OF TWO MUCH AWESOME HA THAT WAS A LIE, NO SUCH THING AS TOO MUCH AWESOME.

ESPECIALLY WHEN THE AWESOME IN AN AWESOME LADY ASSASSIN AND AN AWESOME LADY DETECTIVE AND AN ACTUAL HUMAN BEING GENIUS DETECTIVE.

I like Xena and mentioned it because of the extreme focus on female characters and their relationships with each other. Other things too, but that is what keeps me watching. I went into Elementary knowing it would not be like that (and knowing I didn't care about the books), but Watson being Lucy Liu made me interested and it's very pleasing with its depictions anyway. How is Legend of the Seeker on these things?

Pretty damn good. In season one, the main female mostly interacts with the two dudes she's traveling with, but she's consistently badass, and the world itself, has a lot of ladies running around it. And then season two adds a second female lead who YOU THINK is going to be the 'bad girl' leg of a love triangle BUT REALLY the the main emotional arc of the second season is the two leads becoming BFFs.

I will try it! I need more shows with female friendships.
