“It always seems impossible when you start casting these parts, but when we saw Matt and Jenna together, we knew we had our girl. She’s funny and clever and exactly mad enough to step on board the Tardis. It’s not often the Doctor meets someone who can talk even faster than he does, but it’s about to happen. Jenna is going to lead him his merriest dance yet. And that’s all you’re getting for now. Who she’s playing, how the Doctor meets her, and even where he finds her, are all part of one of the biggest mysteries the Time Lord ever encounters. Even by the Doctor’s standards, this isn’t your usual boy meets girl.”
-Steve Moffat on The New Companion
So…The subtext that I’m reading is that she’s playing a girl named Mary Morstan, and we’re going to finally get the Wholock we so desperately crave? And that’s why we must wait for 2013 for new Sherlock? Right? That’s what you’re saying here, right? ….Right? 8)

FOR THE LOVE OF EVERYTHING, LEAVE MARK GATISS AND STEVE MOFFAT ALONE. THEY ARE NOT YOUR BFF’S. TWITTER IS NOT AN OPEN FORUM FOR YOU TO DISCUSS YOUR FANDOM WOES/SHIPPING PREFERENCES/THEIR PRIVATE LIVES/ETC. ETC. WE ARE PRIVILEGED ENOUGH TO HAVE A DIRECT LINE OF COMMUNICATION WITH THEM, IT’S TIME TO STOP ABUSING IT.
DO YOU SEE HOW FRUSTRATED THEY’RE GETTING? IT’S REACHED A POINT WHERE THEY’RE ACTIVELY STATING THAT THEY’RE ANNOYED. TWEETING THINGS LIKE, “THIS GETS LESS FUNNY OVER TIME” IS A POLITE WAY OF SAYING TO BACK DOWN. IAN HALLARD IS NOW FIELDING COMMENTS….REALLY?! THESE MEN ARE GENTLEMEN. CAN WE EXTEND TO THEM THE SAME COURTESY THAT THEY BESTOW UPON US?!
PLEASE. I’M NOT ASKING. I’M BEGGING. MARK GATISS IS ONE OF MY HEROES, AND THESE SHENANIGANS ARE KILLING ME. THINK BEFORE YOU TWEET. IF IT’S SOMETHING SO PRUDENT THAT YOU SIMPLY MUST TAG MOFFAT AND GATISS, GO AHEAD. I KNOW THEY APPRECIATE THE FANDOM WHEN WE ARE DOING WHAT WE’RE GOOD AT- BEING CLEVER, CREATIVE, COMPASSIONATE AND COURTEOUS! BUT IF YOU WOULDN’T SHARE YOUR TWEET WITH YOUR MUM- WHY SEND IT OVER TO THE MEN WHO ARE BASICALLY THE FANDOM’S PARENTS?!
LET MOFFAT AND GATISS DO THEIR JOBS. LET THEM CREATE IN PEACE. THEY’RE EXPERIENCED PROFESSIONALS. I PROMISE- IT WILL BE WORTH THE WAIT. AND IN THE MEANTIME, LET’S DO THEM PROUD AND ACT LIKE MATURE FANS.
THANK YOU.

that with the popularity of “BBC Sherlock” in Korea…That possibly SHINee’s album title was a proactive choice made to capitalize on that popularity? AND EVERYTHING IS ALL CONNECTED?!!?!
WHAT THEN, GUYS?! WHAT THEN?!
