I feel the same way about Orville/Discovery wank. More space opera is good space opera. More Holmes-derived fiction is good Holmes-derived fiction.

[(Anonymous)]

I agree in principle and I agree that comparing the shows is a bad way to frame an argument.

At the same time, that's not going to make me think that Sherlock is a good show, at all. (And I suspect that Discovery and Orville might not be good either but I haven't watched enough of them to say)

[cbrachyrhynchos]

I didn't like Sherlock either, but I don't see much of a point in comparing Sherlock to Elementary.

[(Anonymous)]

IA, their goodness or badness is not related to each other

[(Anonymous)]

Yeah, I like Discovery and not Orville, but that's on the shows themselves, not because it's a competition!

[(Anonymous)]

The Elementary/Sherlock comparisons at least make sense because they are pretty similar shows, IMO. Orville and Discovery are so different in tone and style. I love them both but I see no point in comparing them.

[morieris]

Is there anything still coming out about Sherlock to care about.

OP

[(Anonymous)]

I have no idea, I've only just started out.

[(Anonymous)]

You do you, OP! The bashing between the various Holmsian fandoms is exhausting but there are a lot of people like you out there. Reach out to the other fans of both and carve your own little corner of fandom where you can all squee together.

[(Anonymous)]

You sound like my kind of person, OP.

[(Anonymous)]

They're such different shows, and the portrayals of Holmes and Watson are so different, it's not necessary to choose a favorite when it's possible to like (or dislike) them both for completely different reasons.

[(Anonymous)]

I agree, but in what universe is Elementary the superior show that you're expected to love more than Sherlock? Elementary is not exactly the most popular kid at school.

[osidiano]

The landscape changed A LOT after the last season of BBC's Sherlock came out. A lot of folks were really disappointed, and some that weren't getting in on the "secret GOOD fifth season" conspiracy hopped ship to Elementary and/or started saying that they had always thought Elementary was better. Some Elementary fans did the "SEE I TOLD YOU OUR SHOW WAS BETTER," which is equally obnoxious. But overall fans have been slapfighting about this online since the casting announcement for Joan Watson first came out.

[(Anonymous)]

It's not that Elementary is great, it's that Sherlock isn't

[(Anonymous)]

While I think Elementary is the superior show, I agree with you that it isn't something I have seen online. Usually Elementary is ignored, while Sherlock gets the lion's share of the attention (both good and bad).

[(Anonymous)]

nayrt - Same here. I like Elementary and think it's a better written show than Sherlock, but I don't see the kind of rabid fanbase for it that I do for Sherlock. I myself stay out of fandom debates, they're tiresome.

OP

[(Anonymous)]

My flist is very vocal about their hatred of Sherlock. They also praise Elementary very loudly.

[rivia]

Miss Sherlock is pretty good so far too.

[(Anonymous)]

yoooooo how have I not heard about this before

[rivia]

only 4 of 8 episodes have aired so far, now's the time to check it out!

[(Anonymous)]

For me, it was more that BBC Sherlock fans were really, really nasty about Elementary before it even started, and continued to be so. I enjoyed Elementary but the vitriol put me off watching any more of Sherlock.

[(Anonymous)]

+1

[(Anonymous)]

But what about the Richie movies?
