Finally listened to the last TW radio play.

You know that thing Joss said about giving people 'what they need, not what they want?'

Well fuck that. Because what people want IS WHAT THEY NEED!

At some point I'll write something more, but at the moment I'm just a bit of a mess - so for now, I just wanted to say that I love Rusty (or whoever planned out these radio plays) for not being Joss, and (belatedly) giving people some GODDAMN CLOSURE!

And how. *chokes up again*

See you all later.

Well, you can have great stuff in 45 minutes (there are plenty of Joss-penned Buffy and Angel episodes to prove that), but those had backstory and future plans to put them in context for them to aspire to such heights.

Moffat wrote 1, some dude who needs to not be so racist, sexist, and write his "smart" characters as morons wrote 2, and Mark Gatiss (who I rather liked as the oily John Dashwood in the 2008 S&S) wrote the third. Has there been anything released about what the format for the next series is?

Just curious about DA - I enjoyed it, though not as much as Andrew Davies' Dickensian 8-hour dramas. But it was loads better than the new UpDown. Or Davies' South Riding.

*nods* Dr Horrible is... sketchy. Penny, the love interest, is a complete cipher.

There MIGHT be info on Sherlock somewhere, but nothing I've seen. Not that I've gone looking. I enjoy watching it, but that's as far as my interest goes. Well I've read a few fics - including a truly AMAZING one - but I'm not particularly fannish.

I'm not really one for costume drama. Dunno why, but it doesn't do much for me.
