Sherlocked

So, as the title of this post suggests, I'm now a fan of Sherlock (BBC). Watched the whole series in less then three days, though considering there's only nine episodes that's not that big of an accomplishment. Still, LOVED the show to pieces. (Am I the only one who thinks Sherlock would be good friends with L Lawliet and who's reminded of Donna Noble every time Watson scolds Sherlock?)
In other TV show related news my husband and I just started watching The Office (US) together. Am I the only one who fears the consequences should Dwight ever procreate? Seriously, despite his good taste in television and movies, the guy is a total suck-up and an uber a-hole. And Lord forbid he reproduce with the ice-witch Angela. The only thing good she has going for her is her love of cats and baking skills.
I feel SO BAD for poor Toby, always getting bullied and with nobody genuinely seeming to care for him. Sometimes I just wanna hug him and tell him everything will be okay. Also, how is that Michael has lived this long or gotten this far in his field? Half the time he's a total tool and yet the other half he somehow makes me feel sorry for him.
Last night I watched Bad Words with my mother-in-law. It was surprising that she's the one who picked it out, as dark humor usually isn't her favorite, but then again she did sleep through most of the movie so she undoubtedly missed all the bad/funny parts. Despite the fact that it just jumped into the story without first setting the stage--a minor annoyance in the long run, it was an overall good movie.
