ontd comments say that he apparently said this too: “Think along the lines of Harry Mudd or Trelane or Gary Mitchell or the Talosians or the Horta. Actually it’s one of those that I named.”

prayer circle for trelane~

…And if it was Gary Mitchell, they wouldn’t even have to turn his eyes silver.  :)

In an email this morning from our old friend Torsten Dewi — media maven, raconteur and man about town — at wortvogel.de:

To: Diane Duane (the usual Gmail address)
Subject: So Cumberbatch is playing Khan after all…

… I gotta tell you, I have serious doubt whether he can believably
pull off an arrogant intellectual.

(long intake of breath)

BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA.

(another long, long intake of breath)

(collapses)

(pushes self up on elbows again, weakly wagging a finger)

(collapses some more)

…Yes, any day that starts like this is going to be a good one.

John Watson & Leonard McCoy….and company.

They would commiserate well in this sense, I think. Though on fundamental doctor levels I don’t think they would mesh, lol.

STILL, I will draw all the Army/Fleet Doctors ALL THE DAYS/NIGHT/DAY.

After a while, when all attempts at gaining any attention have failed, John looks at Dr McCoy. “Cuppa?” he says.

“Cuppa what?” says McCoy.

“Well, tea,” says John, “but under the circumstances, there’s a pub down a ways.”

“First sensible person I’ve met,” mourns McCoy, as they leave Sherlock and the pointy-eared man staring each other down coldly, “and it’s god knows how many years in the past.”

Oh my god. I love you.
Can I give you things?  My first born? Kittens?  ANYTHING? 

Seconded. (Because it’s always the Doctors with me. And right there are two of the only ones I would actually call Doctor: the third one was my psych supervisor, and the fourth doesn’t seem to have another name. Well, not one he routinely shares.)

Any chance of the reverse angle?…  :)

i felt the need to add this caption.

i don’t know who originally posted this image but i couldn’t stop laughing. thank you so much for putting this up, whoever you are. 

(laughter) Looks like he’s had another of those “Punch me in the face!” moments.

NOW then, people:

Interestingly, Spock is not the only one wearing a Star Fleet uniform. Cumberbatch’s unknown character is seen wearing a black version of the uniform under his silver overcoat. A sign that this man was a friend before he was a foe?

“Black version of the uniform”? What the hell branch of Starfleet wears black?

Or is somebody pulling a “Mirror, Mirror” on us??

…Argh. Yet more waiting.

Some thoughts about an old fictional relationship that’s suddenly grown a touch warmer.

Sherlock and Spock. I’ve been a friend of the one since my teens — maybe earlier — and an off-canon chronicler of the other for twenty or thirty years. As such, the confluence of the two universes was hardly news to me: Star Trek (and Star Trek writers) have had the hots for Holmes for a long time, and dialogue references and outright cameos are commonplace.  …There’s no denying that 1701/1701A and 221B are thematic and spiritual neighbors. The Trek universe has been nodding amicably toward Arthur Conan Doyle’s creation for many years.

But this was the first time the other universe, in mass media at least, had ever nodded back…
