Re: John or Sherlock

Can´t choose - I like both equally.


-----------------------------------

I cannot live without brainwork. What else is there to live for? Stand at the window there. Was there ever such a dreary, dismal, unprofitable world? See how the yellow fog swirls down the street and drifts across the dun-coloured houses. What could be more hopelessly prosaic and material? What is the use of having powers, Doctor, when one has no field upon which to exert them?

Re: John or Sherlock

It is hard to choose because they are such brilliant characters which are played fantastically.

Not to mention they are both dead sexy.

Re: John or Sherlock

I immediately chose Sherlock (because I just can't imagine voting against him and BC is so much of a favourite of mine!!) but I have to be honest when I clicked on the button to view the voting it broke my heart to see that no one had voted for John...  

I really felt like trying to vote again!  I do adore John.  He is such an important part of Sherlock and the two of them are more like "one" entity rather than competing elements.  It's almost unfair to have to make a choice!

And that made me vote for John Watson. 

Sherlock wouldn't be anything without John - and vice versa. I love them equally.

When I started watching BBC Sherlock, I admit I saw only Benedict. He eclipsed the entire show, and I couldn't really see anything else. But after a couple of episodes, I saw this awesome Dr. Watson on the screen. And these days, I watch the show just as much for Martin as I do for Benedict.

Re: John or Sherlock

I remain both a Benedict and Sherlock fan,....but John is a good character and Martin plays him masterfully.

Re: John or Sherlock

I choose Sherlock, although he is not thinkable without Watson.

Re: John or Sherlock

I don't vote. They belong together. Though Sherlock and Benedict is my ultimate fave there is no way to decide one against.

I"m with you gently.  You can't make me choose!

Re: John or Sherlock

I applied the philosophy "What Would Sherlock Do?" and then voted for John.

Re: John or Sherlock

I found a way to ease my guilty conscience (for not voting for John) - I voted for him on my iPad (registered in my hubby's name).

It was just tearing me up a bit, sort of like a "Sophie's Choice" sort of thing.

I think both the "boys" are just so brilliant!

Re: John or Sherlock

difficult choice ! Sherlock is very intelligent but he is not a robot because he has feelings for Irene ; he takes care of his friends (John,Molly,Mrs Hudson and Lestrade !)
John lives more in the real world !  as he says, no one would know them if he doesn't write his blog! he takes care of Sherlock too  even if sometimes he is late in Sherlock's deductions !
I don't choose for the moment

Re: John or Sherlock

I think it is hard to choose as they are one of the most well known pairs, with out the other person, they would be nothing. They are both halves which make a well known whole.
They are inseparable, no matter how much they argue.

Re: John or Sherlock

When I was reading the ACD stories as a child, I always wanted to be Watson, so I could hang around with Holmes. How could I possibly choose one of the two?
