OP

My issue with the gasping scene is that I don't think they would have had Watson do that if a man was playing him.

[(Anonymous)]

Canon!Watson was a man. Canon!Watson did the following:

/“There is something devilish in this, Watson,” said he, more moved than I had ever before seen him. “What do you make of it?”

I stooped to the hole and recoiled in horror./

Oop.

LOL! I think the best thing about all this is the complaining about stuff that show the complainer is completely unfamiliar with the original canon.

I saw somebody rage "HE NEVER SAID ELEMENTARY!! AAAAAAH!!" - which, of course is not true. He just never said 'Elementary, my dear Watson.'

OP

Sorry, you're wrong.

OP

The moment which you quoted has him flinch for an entirely different reason though. The dead body was stuck in a disturbing grin, staring at them. The one in the preview is just a dead body on the floor, and being an army doctor, it wouldn't make Watson gasp. I know Joan isn't an army doctor, but if a man was playing Watson, he probably still would be.

To clarify, not saying Watson never gasped.

[(Anonymous)]

She gasped. That's it. She. Gasped. That doesn't mean she is uncomfortable with bodies, it just means she wasn't expecting to see one when she opened the door. Someone gasping because they open a door to a jack in the box jumping out or a person just standing there when they didn't expect it doesn't mean they're afraid of children's toys or people. There is no reason to believe male Watson wouldn't react, too.

OP

We really won't know either way until we actually see the episode and how Watson's character is treated. If it's not what I think it is, and Joan turns out to be a BAMF, well then great. I'm just saying that's the impression I got from the trailer.

That said, it still bothers me that she's not an army doctor. They better have a good reason for it because I can't think of one.

[(Anonymous)]

OP

Also, she didn't *just* gasp. She looked away for the rest of the clip and stayed away from the body. Just sayin'.

[jazmin-firewing.livejournal.com]

I dunno, I think I'd stay away from the body too if I was a visitor to a crime scene and there were police and CSIs who needed to get to the evidence before it became contaminated. Joan's a doctor. Doctors deal with the living. That woman was dead; there was nothing that Joan could do. So why not stay out of the way until the CSIs had done their job or Joan was called over to help estimate cause of death? She's not the coroner, that's not her job.

[(Anonymous)]

OP

Good point, but the way they did it still doesn't sit well with me. It seemed like an emotional reaction, which would be ok if it's something to do with her character's past.
