Official Statement, Doctor Who and Race

Our editor has made an official statement that we are to point everyone at re: Doctor Who and Race. This is to be in lieu of any interviews or comments before the book is officially published.

I will, however, add the personal comment that anyone reading it will know precisely where and why I snorted loudly.

Three tidbits re: Elementary

1) Elementary's first season will come out on DVD August 27.

2) According to Blogtor Who, there's going to be a SherlockBBC con in Birmingham. Which some incredible moron has titled "Elementary." Because that won't cause any confusion (or come across like the start of a pissing contest) *at all.*

3) Because I don't think I've said this in public, Elementary fans can breathe a sigh of relief that I'm not going to be harshing the squee over S2 because I won't be watching S2. I watched S1 through because I'd pitched several articles about aspects of *all* the 21st C interpretations and thus needed to talk in an informed manner about Elementary as much as the Ritchie movies and BBC.

If the ratings stay the way they are, the show will run for quite a few seasons. I don't begrudge that. May your fandom continue to make you happy.
