Decoder Ring is a podcast about cracking cultural mysteries. Every month host Willa Paskin, Slate’s TV critic, takes on a cultural question, object, idea, or habit and speaks with experts, historians, and obsessives to try to figure out where it comes from, what it means, and why it matters.
Today: Who gets to decide if Sherlock Holmes is gay? For more than a century, fans of Sherlock Holmes have been analyzing, debating, and creating new texts using Arthur Conan Doyle’s characters. Decoder Ring explores the Johnlock conspiracy, a fan theory about the BBC TV show Sherlock, which posits the inevitability of a gay romance between Sherlock Holmes and John Watson. With interviews from historians, journalists, and fans at the heart of this controversial idea, this episode explores the theory, how it played out in the real world, and whether this kind of fandom is a meaningful way of interacting with fiction.
Catching up on Elementary. While the supporting cast isn't as great as other modern iterations of Sherlock Holmes, Johnny Lee Miller is by far the best modern Holmes we have. He is amazing.

I love Elementary. The finale last season would have been a great series finale. It also would have been a great mid-series jolt. I’ll appreciate these last 13 eps, for sure. And LMS, Joan is great.
Guys, I am not a moderator! I swear to God! Why does everyone think I'm a moderator?

Joan is ok, but JLM is underappreciated in what he is doing in this role

Not by anyone watching. He’s better than Doctor Strange
