Sherlock

  One of the best TV shows I have seen in the long time is "Sherlock", BBC production. It's brilliant, witty and gripping - modern Sherlock Holmes/John Watson in 21st century London. Sherlock texting and Watson having a blog :) Life can't get better than that ;)

  Seriously, great series, and I can't wait to get next season - both actors took a break to film Hobbit in 2012, so I have to wait for at least another year :( Netflix has first season (3 episodes) and other 3 (second season) were aired on TV.

 I've stumbled upon this article this morning:

 and it was good to read that, since Sherlock does not deserve being called sociopath even by himself :)

 I do remember when reading "IT", Stephen King's masterpiece, he was portraying Patrick Hockstatter, and it was scary and terrible portrait. This boy fits in all those 4 categories easily and that chapter scared daylight out of me at the time. It just goes to say how very good Stephen King is at painting his characters - no cardboard characters for him, even for a fairly insignificant boy who shows up only in one or two places. I think "IT" is King's best book, those seven kids felt like an old friends to me after reading the book.

 It also reminded me a bit of Ray Bradbury when protagonists were flashbacking to their childhood and getting nostalgic for a different time; it felt so real, and at the same time so weird to hear things like how much you could buy for a dollar ;( or how rock and roll was forbidden...
