How come Benedict gets three forums & the others only get one?
I love him to bits too but if I were Martin Freeman, I would get very depressed at the stats 
I love this quote from Martin (on a chat show): No, the notion that he got me onto The Hobbit makes me want to kill everyone in this room (this bit is word for word). I got me on The Hobbit because I auditioned for it. He got himself on The Hobbit because he auditioned for it too (this bit is paraphrased).

Depressing for Martin through it might be, sheer volume of posts about Benedict necessitated three sections for him.
Personally I blame The PSoS!

No, the Purple Shirt of Sex . I guess the situation in this forum just reflects the Benedict mania on the Internet and beyond. No offense to Martin.

I am such an idiot. Wonder what the ratings would have been if they'd dressed him in cerise?

The Profound Sexiness of Sherlock isn't bad either.

Re: How come Benedict gets three forums & the others only get one?
Yeah, if you can imagine that at one time all of the posts about Benedict were contained in one forum...it went on for like 8 pages, and it was impossible to find anything! So yes, it does appear we talk about Benedict a lot.
I'm actually currently working on a Benedict Cumberbatch forum too, which I shall be debuting shortly.

Re: How come Benedict gets three forums & the others only get one?
yeah. Generally, people went and made threads about Our Boy Ben without looking to see if there was already a thread on that same topic. That happens on EVERY fan forum, no matter what. They forget to set their page listings in their profiles. So-- we've got more for Ben than anyone else. And It's still only ONE forum for Ben-- it's just subdivided into THREE sections. The three musketeers threads, you could call them-- all for one, and one for him!! (swords clank in unison)
Please don't be too mad at me for saying this.

Oh, then I'll have to spend even more time on the Internet.

Exactly. Some of us must be quite bruised.

Yes. I need to find an Andrew Scott forum. BC is sexy, but I think it's obvious where my affections lie.

Re: How come Benedict gets three forums & the others only get one?
There are a few fan twitter accounts I follow. Have a look at the list of who I am following. If there isn't a forum you could make your own!
