RE: List the shows you watch
No but I might try it. By Sherlock I assume it's about Sherlock Holmes, right? I do like crime series but not unrealistic boring series like CSI.

I really, REALLY wanted to hate 'Sherlock.' I'm a Holmesian purist, and I've never liked pastiches or updates of the stories.

I hate that I love the show. Cumberbatch is easily the second-best Holmes ever.

Oh boy...

1) Game of Thrones -- Total Fanboy read the books, read the blogs, read GRRM's sneak peak at Winds of Winter.
2) Shameless -- This show is the best show currently airing.
3) Episodes -- continuation of Friends fanboydom.
4) Top Gear -- my favorite "reality" show
5) Big Brother -- my shame. My deep, dark, shame.
6) The Daily Show -- I hate that it's only on 4 nights a week.
7) Real Time with Bill Maher -- Jon Stewart is better, but I love debate!
8) Last Week Tonight with John Oliver -- He skewers people.
9) Modern Family -- Fave primetime sitcom.
10) It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia -- Narcissism never looked so good.
11) Mythbusters -- I don't like the reboot as much; I miss Kari, Grant, and Tory.
12) New Girl -- Zooey. Oh Zooey.
13) The Mindy Project -- Mindy Kaling is a genius.
14) South Park -- It's still good.
15) American Idol -- My other shame.

I'm also enjoying the show Fresh off the Boat.

Yeah, it's the one with Benedict Cumberbatch and Marty Freeman. It's a really smart series.
I can't remember where this verse is from, I think it got removed from canon:

"I don't hang around with mostly men because I'm gay. It's because men are better than women. Better trained, better equipped...better. Just better! I'm not gay."

For context, this is the previous verse:

"Hi Jesus" -robvalue

Just finished Three Kingdoms 2010 95 episodes. Great awesome show. The actors that played Cao Cao, Zhuge Liang, Sima Yi and Sun Quan were especially phenomenal. All in all I'd rate it better than the 1994 Romance of the Three Kingdoms, but since it is Chinese I really can't stand the overly bias treatment Shu gets.

Current shows, in no particular order:
Continuum
House of Cards
Orange is the New Black
Orphan Black

That's about it. Most of what's on TV is so dumbed down for the masses that its not worth the hit on the electric bill for it.

I've been watching The Slap on Netflix. It's an eight-episode Australian miniseries based on a novel, and it's really good and different.

I think you were the one who recommended The Leftovers, and I really enjoyed that one.
