I'm sorry but I can't for the life of me take Matt Berry seriously as the voice of Sherlock. After seeing him in so many comedic roles (in which he is always HILARIOUS !) in The IT Crowd and Toast of London and more recently What We Do in the Shadows and Krapopolis, I have completely typecast him. Agreed that the Moriarty subplot is annoying and uninteresting. And frankly everything to do with Ingrid makes me roll my eyes. The tumor with teeth reminded me of cases where a twin is absorbed in utero and the twin that is born has tiny creepy ancillary body parts. So I thought perhaps it was an incomplete miscarriage but then it wouldn't have been located in the ovaries.

NB not my cup of tea but I'm sure he's done better in his standup specials. Re: Jane's song, I watched with my 17 year old niece who told me it was a parody of an earnest song about the second day of college, trying your best and not putting too much pressure on yourself, etc. that's been memed and covered a lot. She played the original version for me and like the parody, it does go on and on. So maybe Jane was trying to be faithful to the original? Regardless, it wasn't that interesting or funny.

Here's another one: It's a commercial for one of those word finding game apps. Maybe Wordscapes? Anyway, the woman is going on and on about having more free time to herself and not having to do chores any more because she has her husband doing them I guess? Her husband, meanwhile, is running around in the background doing chores with the woman occasionally asking him to add more chores to his list. He seems very obliging but the woman is quite smug about it all. So the message is "you can get other people to do your household chores and play word games all day on your phone and those people will be happy to do them?"

First time poster, love reading the commercials forums... Anyway, I'm not sure if this commercial is often aired. I think I've seen it maybe 5 times, probably on pluto tv. It's for cotton (the fabric of our lives 🎵) and the narration is something about putting down your phones and telling (or listening?) to stories with friends instead. There's a group of people eating at a restaurant booth and it's a slo-mo pan of them laughing but they're not looking at each other. They seem to be looking to something humorous happening off screen to the right. First, how is this even remotely related to cotton? Second, how does this involve stories? Is there some kind of storytelling forum at a restaurant? Maybe I'm too dense to get it but it leaves me perplexed every time I see the commercial.
