   I just watched this. It didn't say much that was new. It was more of a   
   summary, ending with the conclusion that DW and other longstanding   
   franchises can't be fixed at this point.   
      
   That's probably true. We just all have to decide what's in our personal   
   canons.   
      
   > What did you watch?   
      
   I began The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes and Dr Watson, the well-   
   regarded Soviet miniseries. I watched "The Acquaintance," and I quickly   
   saw why it's so well regarded. Holmes, Watson, and Mrs. Hudson are all   
   hitting it out of the park. One thing I especially appreciated is that   
   Watson is not a clown. Far too many takes make him an idiot to contrast   
   with Holmes' genius, which is a bit cheap IMO and also doesn't respect   
   the original material. This Watson is a capable man whom Holmes and   
   others respect.   
      
   It's billed as a miniseries, but each episode is long enough to count as   
   a short movie. The whole series is available on YouTube, free, with   
   subtitles.   
      
   I also watched a little more Bored to Death. Ray, the hero's BFF, is a   
   little cartoony and IMO detracts from the show. If they dialed him down   
   from 11 to maybe 8, it would seem more balanced.   
      
   What did everyone else watch?
