Greetings from Canada! :D

So, where do I begin ?...well, naturally I suppose I should start with how I got into Sherlock. Well, I had vaguely heard about the show peripherally for a while but hadn't gotten the chance to see any of it (no TV >.<). One day this year I saw the first season at the local Library, and being the huge Sherlock Holmes fan I am (have read all the Doyle stories many times over the course of many years) I decided to give it a go...Wow, I could not have anticipated how much I ended up loving it!  I swear, when each episode was over I would clap my hands and I would sigh, laugh, smile, punch the air and cry in all the right places during all of the episodes...especially of course at the end of The Reichenbach Fall...many, many tears , but I digress...so, after watching all of the first season episodes in one day, I went out and got the second season...gobbled that up just as quickly! Needless to say, BBC Sherlock and I were love at first sight, hehe . It didn't take long before I got my mother into the show as well, and it also didn't take long before I was rampaging through YouTube watching as many fanvideos I could find...BBC Sherlock is my favourite Holmes adaptation ever! Casting; perfection (especially Sherlock and John, god I absolutely love those two ), Writing; perfection, Everything; perfection.

I've been thinking about joining a fan forum for a little while now, and recently came across this one!  I don't know how active I'll be (too busy watching...well, you know, the Sherlock dudes ), but I look forward to discussing Sherlock with other Sherlocked fans!

Hi, Silver.
Nice to have you here. My only connection to Canada is that my hubbyy watches ice hockey whenever it's aired on German TV. We can only see it via ESPN America, and they very seldom show matches with Canadian teams. So whenever we see one, we're favouring the Canadians! Go, Canada!

Hello and welcome to the forum. Nice to have another Canuck aboard (we do have others but they've been a bit quiet lately, perhaps they've been in hibernation!)  I LOVE Canada and we visit annually, wonderful country, wonderful people. So happy you found Sherlock and us at last!

Don't make people into heroes John. Heroes don't exist and if they did I wouldn't be one of them.

"and I would sigh, laugh, smile, punch the air and cry in all the right places during all of the episodes..."

I think we all know the feeling! ;)

Welcome!
