Cumberbatch and Freeman! If you like Steven Moffat's reign (and the previous episodes written by him and/or Mark Gatiss) in Doctor Who then I guess you would enjoy this too. I wish I could send you a little packet of time especially allocated to the watching of Sherlock, but I would need the Doctor's help with that... :-) Oh yes, it’s the new BBC Sherlock with Messrs.

Lady Ruby, I can see why you'd avoid weeping publicly, but I adore the catharsis that comes with weeping over fiction. I just prefer to do it in my own home, with a large box of tissues beside me. Brigi, are you talking about the new Sherlock, with Cumberbatch & Freeman? I confess: haven't seen it. (Yet! Yet! Obviously, it's first on my tbw list but I need to find time to watch tv.) Shann, if I could "like" that comment, I would. And Joanna, yes, totally. It was such a bold move to have the Doctor actually fall in love with his assistant.

No! I don't care if you want to go do Secret Diary of a Call Girl! You can't go!" As for the Reichenbach Fall, that Brigi mentioned... oh my God. I couldn't stop blubbering (mainly 'cause I love love love love love LOVE the Johnlock pairing) Gladiator was a film that my sister told me I was going to cry at the end of. I did...kind of. It was an awesome film, but I didn't actually cry so much as whimper quietly in the background. Doomsday had me staring at the computer screen, tears dripping down my face, screaming “No! No!

I just saw the "Doomsday" episode a few days ago, and the good Doctor left me wrecked, even though I knew what was coming and actually saw the final scene before watching the entire episode. (I'm horrible, I know.) If I think of it as a competition, though, then I must say it's Sherlock's "The Reichenbach Fall" which made me cry the most (several times). But, like I said, it's not too difficult to have that effect on me. :-) Put me on the “shameless blubber” list as well, I can cry over any turn of (fictional) events, may they be good or bad.

Certain movies, books, and ect. usually do the trick. I’m a soft-hearted weeper, which is why I usually tend to avoid things that bring tears to my eyes.

Wed, 22 Aug 2012 16:58:28 +0000 http://yslee.com/?p=2009#comment-125969 I believe that I am one of those in-between people. For the most part, I do not get wet-eyed over anything (unless I'm beyond angry about something). But there are those rare moments in books and movies that will touch me and I'll swiftly be in need of a handkerchief. It's never a specific thing, either, that triggers a touch of soft-heartedness in me; every once in a while, there'll just be that perfect phrase, that perfect description that'll just hit me.
