Anonymous asked: why do they call john ,,jawn''? does it have something to do with the way sherlock says his name? it always stood out to me as a little bit strange (but in a nice way), the way he says ,,john'' in the show. english is not my native language so those things aren't always obvious to me. thank you in advance, you are doing a lovely job on this blog.
Anonymous asked: The "Princess Bride" theory works (sort of) if the cabbie administers an antidote to himself either before or while he takes the pill. (That's actually my pet theory.)
chekovings asked: What's the popular opinion regarding the pill in ASiP? Did he pick the good or bad one?

A Call to Arms: I Believe in Sherlock Holmes
In response to the simultaneously heartbreaking and infuriating besmirching of the good name of the world’s only Consulting Detective, Sherlockians everywhere have taken it upon themselves to speak out against the (fictional) public opinion of Sherlock Holmes by taking the position of the (fictional) faithful followers who believe Sherlock’s body of work to be genuine.
In what can be...

Sherlock: The Reichenbach Fall preview
Anonymous asked: I just wanted to thank you for doing this. This fandom is utter crack and whoever joins it can't help but immediatly notice all the cracky references, so this is practically "The Sherlock Fandom Bible" or something :) Do you think any of the "Sherlock" involved actors, producers etc know about this?

Mad Libs with Moriarty
While this is, thus far, a small meme, it is the first true meme I have seen that is born of “A Scandal in Belgravia” (i.e. something that is not self-explanatory, such as Sherlock in a bedsheet).
Near the beginning of “A Scandal in Belgravia,” Moriarty receives a very poorly-timed phone call. While it is clearly implied that the call was from Irene Adler, and while we...
koplox asked: I've just recently started watching Sherlock (like less than a week ago) and managed to get sucked into the fandom before I even got a chance to watch The Great Game. I have to say, this blog is fantastic and has helped me figured out what the hell is going on when talk of jam and Hustlin' Holmes pops up on my dash. Thank you for helping me and other new Sherlockians understand the crack...
Anonymous asked: Have you read the Sunday Times article where Benedict and Martin talk about the fandom? My first reaction was: Omg, they know! They even talked about the Sherlock/ The Hobbit crossovers. Martin describes a particular fanart featuring Sherlock!Smaug and Bilbo!John snuggling on a rug. Do you know which picture he talks about?
