BBC Sherlock Fan Forum - Serving Sherlockians since February 2012 / How often/how many times have you watched the episodes?

**Posted by Punch me in the face** June 23, 2013 9:09 pm

Discovered Sherlock at the very end of April.

Watched Season 1 three times and Season 2, twice.

But I've seen a numerous scenes dozens and dozens of times, especially whenever I make fanvids and have to choose the extracts I want.

I've watched both series a few times but I have not done so recently. I aim to watch series 1 and then series 2 again just before the new series is aired.

I am unable to tell how often I watched them. Found the second Series accidentally on telly. Bought the DVD and after I discovered the English version I had to laugh a lot. My real obsession started when I tried to understand every joke. Needed some help with the dictionary I must admit. But is was probably a good idea because I discovered what I call subtext or writers talking. Saw it as a game of some kind to discover the hidden meaning relationship- and otherwise.
Right now I am looking for "The whole of the moon" or the real picture by building the puzzle if there is any other than the obvious. Balancing between dumping everything and not being able to.

I lost count, too.

Usually, I play Sherlock's DVDs randomly while getting dressed, tying hair, checking schedules, checking emails, keeping diaries, reading, translating, cleaning...basically anything I can do in front of my laptop.

Actually, I managed to get the mp3 files of the six episodes and transfered them to my smartphone. So I can listen to Sherlock while waiting for buses, taking MRT, jogging, roaming...basically anything I can do safely without proper hearing.

I like re-watching my favourite scenes, especially the scenes in 221B at the beginning of Hounds

Thanks everyone, I'm really enjoying your replies. I shall be buying the boxset on Weds so I can enjoy the eps properly away from streaming them on a website. I also enjoy being nosey, love the idea of having the soundtrack and also having the eps on a smartphone .

I will dive in and watch Season 2 right now :-)
In total I guess I have seen all episodes 10-15 times by now.
Next up is the orginal UK version on BluRay (to have the original english text apprear on the screen), thankfully my birthday is soon

This weekend I will be rewatching the whole series I've seen them all 2-3 times, but I am new so I'm working up to that 20th watch XD

No way to count..When I had internet, I'd watch it on netflix, kinda over and over. I have Series 2 on disc, and my kids (who are totally Johnlocked) will ask for a different show/movie.
we'd be watching full metal alchemist if we still had internet - or something else of my choosing. (Unless I'm still asleep, then some banal cartoon will be on - except Sponge Bob. They know better than that.

I've seen season 2 twice. The episodes 1&2 from season 1 three times, the 3rd one twice. Just because when I wanted to rewatch the whole Sherlock (for the second time) last year I ended up watching only two first episodes of season 1. So just last month I did rewatch all episodes ;]

No clue

Added episode 1 of series 2 again last night because it was on the telly. I discovered that I do, actually, know this far too well! Hubby likes it because of Lara Pulver (can't think why!)
