Now Playing Tracks

tabbystardust:

I made this graphic because some people like to complain that changing the gender/sex of the characters somehow “ruins” or “desecrates” Arthur Conan Doyle’s legacy. Funnily enough nobody ever complains when they are turned into mice, dogs, etc. (Presumably because they are still male.) As you can see there have been several female versions of these characters in the past, and they have hardly ruined anything.

Some of the oldest adaptations only had the actor info for Holmes on IMDB, so either Watson didn’t exist in those films at all, or the actor is unknown. (If he did exist it’s pretty safe to assume he was male.)

I excluded incarnations where Holmes/Watson only appeared once as guest stars in unrelated tv shows. (There were lots.)

Which one would break Tumblr faster?

1. Destiel becoming canon

2. Sherlock Series 3

3. Doctor Who 50th Anniversary bringing back Rose and Tentoo or just in general

4. Johnlock becoming canon

5. New Harry Potter book

WHAT IF ALL 5 HAPPENED

tumblr would not stand a chance and would be down in a minute, let us pray for the spacing out of miracles guys.

If they all happened in the same day

I still believe that all of these will happen one day

One can only hope, very, very hard.

Laws of BBC: if you’re a male lead in a show run by Steven Moffat, your female co-star will (sooner or later) hit you. (And you will ask for more)

Just…haha, WOW. And it looks like so much fun. At least, for River and Irene. *-*

It’s very different for each show. With Doctor Who I’m thinking of how I can get people to be scared I suppose: what’s the monster this week, what’s the adventure, what’s the fastest way we can start the story, how soon can I get Matt Smith running is probably the focus there. With Sherlock it’s different because Mark [Gatiss] and I sit around wondering which one are we going to do this year, which bits of the original haven’t been touched.

I like to think that they’re having a little telepathic genius conversation. 

“i like your tie”
“thanks… i like your relaxed, casual look”
“nice hankerchief too, really completes the look”
“thanks, my grandad gave it to me. what product do you use on your hair?”
“whatever john uses, its in the bathroom. what do you use?”
“the tears of fangirls”
“i don’t know that brand” 
“really? i’m suprised…” 

“the tears of fangirls”

“The tears of fangirls”

Pffft reblogging again because of the brilliance of bennyslegs. 

This fucking fandom. Let me love all of you.

The tears of fangirls. Undeniably. Best. Ever.
