It's August and that means one thing for the John H. Watson Society, and it's not a trip to Scotland to look for jellyfish. Watson news, a very long review of Sherlock & Co's "Lion's Mane" finale, and maybe a touch of harmonica to round out the week.
Watson hearing the late Mary Morstan's voice on the moors? We have a theory on that as we get into the latest Sherlock & Co. bit as the hound of the Baskervilles roams the moor. A few thoughts on CBS Watson, but it's mainly Sherlock & Co. of which we must talk.
As Sherlock Holmes & Co continues their adaptaion of The Hound of the Baskervilles, we are certain of one thing and one thing only: Mariana better not die in this novel!
When Sherlock & Co. adapted its last novel Watson lost his love, and now its Marianna's turn with a new novel and a new relationship that ends before it even begins . . . even if it might not be human. Curious? So are we.
Watson is trying to investigate a case on YouTube and a little more reticent about it on Sherlock & Co. Hope he finds his mojo soon!
We finally get to meet John Watson's future moor buddy this week on the latest Sherlock & Co. and we have thoughts on that guy. And we make it through talking about a morgue scene without mentioning cake. Why would any Sherlock Holmes fan mention cake in that context? Why indeed ...
Sometimes, somebody tries to set up a point but just makes matters all the more confusing. Our initial review of Sherlock & Co. has all sorts of things that have nothing to do with the episode, but still manages to have spoilers. So beware the Hound!
We're all pretty anxious for Baskerville Autumn, but that doesn't mean we can't go on about doctors Watson and Armstrong, one of whom just wants your ears, while the other is looking for a more literal part of your body. And eventually, we mention Napoleon. What more could you want from an obscure Sherlock Holmes podcast?
Whether it's Pittsburgh or Cambridge, this week Watson just can't seem to stay on target for where he's expected to be.
There's actual Watson news, the pups are on board for the latest Sherlock & Co.'s "Missing Three Quarter" adaptation, and who missed a certain week in Liverpool.
Nothing this week but our sigh of relief reviewing the third part of Sherlock & Co.'s adaptation of "Mazarin Stone."
How many times can one talk about Star Trek in a podcast about John H. Watson and never mention Giordi LaForge? A lot more than you would think! One of the worst reviews of an episode of Sherlock & Co. we've seen during an episode of the Watson podcast dedicated to people who are driving around Texas, Oklahoma, and New Mexico for Sherlockian fannish reasons. Come for the news bits, stay for the first ever Literary Agent's Ten Percent segment with a stardate!
How do you adapt "The Mazarin Stone" without adapting "The Mazarin Stone?" This week we found out! And isn't adapting old Sherlock Holmes stories "folly" anyway according to one Sherlock Holmes fan of note? This is the week to wonder such things!
Is there another star of Watson's own who besides Watson? Does changing the ending to "Abbey Grange" make it even more depressing? And what the heck was Watson's literary agent actually doing on his honeymoon? It's all here!
Watson is bringing us a new Sherlock, we have news of a third Watson brother, and modern day John hangs out with the elderly and loves it. Here we go again!
The episode starts with the bull pups reviewing the Sherlock & Co. start to their version of "Abbey Grange," but if you hang on until we pass the 35 minute mark, you can hear the John H. Watson Society discuss a story that appeared just before Sherlock's first tale in The Strand Magazine that seems it might be about Sherlock Holmes as well.
Somehow discussed the much enjoyed conclusion to Sherlock & Co.'s "Priory School," Mariana leads us into an international soda pop discussion. And who is Sherlock the AI's Watson according to a certain site? Scraping the news for that single Watson story.
Moriarty pops up a lot in this episode. Perhaps that's why it ends a little more abruptly than usual.
The bull pups run through part one of Sherlock & Co.'s Priory School adaptation looking for a certain brother, then the Literary Agent's Ten Per Cent pushes his novels. It is what it is, as always!
A very short episode discussing the Sherlock & Co last of "Blanched Soldier." And how do you spot a lectroid Watson? Asking for a friend.
