And while we're on the topic (of other shows), has anyone else been watching Two Husbands One Wife?

Not a detective show at all, it's about these three cuties discovering polyamory. It's very sweet, sometimes cringe, and the guy in the middle is fairly clearly (to me) intended to be autistic. Another one tumblr should be all over.

Another show tumblr is sleeping on

At least in my circles...

The Residence

It's Knives Out style fun with a Black female main character detective, Cordelia Cupp (played by Uzo Aduba) who could arguably be autistic, although it's never stated outright.

I won't say she's exactly supposed to be a Sherlock Holmes variation, although there are certainly nods like the English tweed jacket, sitting in an armchair across from suspects in a well-appointed drawing room during interviews, and getting cheek-to-rug to pick up clues.

There is also a sidekick detective played by Randall Park, although I didn't get any Watson vibes from him and there's not any friendship between them. He mostly just follows her around.

The cast is diverse, with a background gay couple (one of whom happens to be the President of the United States). Why no Tumblr love?

In other news...

Did anyone else notice both Anderson and Sholto in Andor?

There is only one (1) fic for North of North on AO3. Y'all are sleeping on this one.

What happened to my dash?

When I was, I don't know, maybe 8 or 9? I was folding laundry with my mom and there was some bit of cardboard or something in the laundry basket. I picked it up and asked her what it was. She said, "foggiest idea." Well, she probably said "I haven't the foggiest idea," but I either didn't hear the first part or she elided it. I had never heard that expression before, and thought she was giving me the name of the cardboard bit so I asked her to repeat it, which she did: Foggiest idea. When I finally understood the words, it sent me into a paroxysm of laughter for a good 10 minutes solid. For days afterwards I carried the bit of cardboard around showing it to people, telling them it was my foggiest idea, and cracking up hilariously. She did explain once I'd calmed down what she meant. The phrase would set me off for years after that anyway. It somehow got hardwired into a laughing reflex. Anyway, no point to this but thanks for the memory.

does anyone have the foggiest
