SuperWhoLock

Sooooo basically I watch a couple of TV shows. Three very famous TV shows that all sort of attract the same general audience (therefore explaining why I am included on that list). I've just decided to briefly go over each one for the ignorant bystanders so you won't be so ignorant anymore (yes, I will be promoting them as best I can).

First up...

SUPERNATURAL

Starring: Jared Padeleki, Jensen Ackles, and (recently added to the main cast) Misha Collins

The basic idea of it is about two brothers, Dean and Sam Winchester, traveling all over the country in their '67 Impala, hunting demons, ghosts, monsters, and other supernatural creatures. They use fake IDs, police badges, credit cards, and so on to get where they need to go.

The overtone of the show is sort of dramatic, a little angsty, horror, and suspense. But it's not always like that. There are some flat out random and/or funny moments or entire episodes. The Supernatural fandom is known for having a gif response for literally anything. The show is that random (yet, when you watch it, it doesn't seem so random, because the characters are just getting thrown into an alternate universe or something which makes perfect sense in the show).

I know that this show is definitely not for some people. If you're a hardcore religionist, you really won't like this. It always warps your perception of creatures you think you know about (like vampires, werewolves, etc). Well, they do the same to the biblical aspects of things, particularly angels and heaven. Also, if you aren't all into the exorcising of demons, chopping off heads, stabbing, slashing, etc. type of thing, you probably won't like this either.

It is more than just "hey, we found a monster, let's kill it! *stab*". A general plot is they have to identify the problem, what the monster is, how to kill it, track down the weapon, trap the monster, then kill it. That's a general plot though. Sometimes there's not even a monster involved. There's also cursed objects and stuff too. Then you get into the story arcs of each season where

Castiel

they're trying to stop the apocalypse, where they're hunting down the demon that killed their mom when they were kids, when all the angels fall out of heaven, and so on. Then of course there's brotherly bonding which is probably one of the most brilliant aspects of the entire show. And while we're mentioning my favorite aspects of the show, there's also the constant breaking of the fourth wall, and the obvious spoofs on our reality (ex: Ghostfacers, Thinman), and of course Castiel-- their angel friend (called Cas for short). Oh, he is the best! He deserves a post all on his own.

I resisted watching this for the longest time. I was a WhoLockian forever and absolutely refused to watch this show. I was so sure I would not like it for the reasons I listed above (being all into religion, not really liking horror or slashing, etc). However, I always, always, ALWAYS saw references to it all over the place and just wanted to understand the general idea. So a few months ago, I gave in and decided I would watch the pilot just so I could understand what it was about. But that did it. It was so interesting, I had to watch the next episode... and the next one... and the next one. Soon I had finished the entire first season. I always say, it's the plot that brings me back above all other things and this definitely has one heck of an intriguing plot.

I chose this one because it's pretty short, it gives you a general idea of the plot, 
and it includes a lot of the funny parts of the show rather than focusing on the dark, 
action-y stuff. If you want to see a more epic one with awesome editing 
and stuff that focuses more on that, go to this link.

Next...

DOCTOR WHO

Starring: (currently) Matt Smith and Jenna Louise-Coleman

The general plot is probably the most complex out of all three of the shows. Prepare yourself for what I'm about to spew out... OK, it's about a humanoid alien named the Doctor, who travels through time and space in his time machine-spaceship (called the TARDIS) that looks like a police telephone box that's bigger on the inside, with different companions (usually human and usually female) that he picks up along the way, and he fights monsters/aliens and saves planets. Get all that?

The overtone of the show constantly changes. It can be funny and cheery or it can be angsty and dark. Mostly, you feel like you're watching a mad professor running around trying to solve whatever problem(s) have arisen.

You would think that this show is not for a lot of people because of the sci-fi aspect of it, but it is becoming more and more popular. It is HUGE in the UK (where it is made), but it has found its way over here to America and is getting bigger and bigger all the time. It is the longest running sci-fi TV show ever (50 years

TARDIS (Time And Relative Dimension In Space)

last November). They are able to accomplish this because when the main character is dying, he can change his face. So every few years, they bring in a new actor. Right now the current Doctor just got killed off, so Matt Smith is leaving and they're bringing in a new actor (Peter Capaldi).

However, the reason most people really love Doctor Who is not necessarily because of the primary basis I listed above. Ask any true Whovian. It's because of the pure emotion put into it. Seriously, never have I seen a fictional show that can make you feel so good about life and how important you/everyone is, but also make you sob your eyes out over... whatever it may be. (Of course there's lots of funny stuff too. I laugh my head off a lot of the time). Also, I love how intricate the plots/story arcs can be. Wowy wow wow! It is mind boggling!

This was the first of the three shows I started watching. I sat next to my friend Alex in Trigonometry class my senior year of high school. And instead of paying attention to the lessons, she would tell me all about this new show she was completely obsessed with lately. Knowing how it felt to be obsessed with something and having no one to share it with, I let her rave about it to me and kindly listened to her. However, gradually I became interested in what she was saying and eventually I went and looked up the first episode. I was weirded out. But she insisted that the next doctor (played by David Tennant) was the best one so I decided to persevere through the first season until I got to him. However, by that point I was hooked.

I chose this one because it sums up the show very well, it includes 

all the new!who Doctors, and the editing is epic!

Lastly...

SHERLOCK

Starring: Benedict Cumberbatch and Martin Freeman

The basic idea is Sherlock Holmes in modern days. If you don't know what Sherlock Holmes is, I pity you. It follows the original stories pretty closely, just adapting them into the modern world.

The overtone is kind of grim with a bit of a quirky side to it. Really it's all about the characters and Sherlock is a "high functioning sociopath" as he puts it himself so he's not quite... normal.

This show has a much broader audience than the other two. That is to say, the fans are much more diverse. Everyone loves a good mystery. Like Doctor Who, it started out in the UK, but is now becoming larger and larger here in the US. It is actually the same writers as Doctor Who. There's not a single bad episode. It's been running for four years, yet despite this, there's only three seasons and nine episodes. Yeah. I know. And still despite this, it is wildly, insanely popular. The episodes are 90 minutes long though as some consolation and there's not a single dull moment. Like seriously, every second is cinematic eye-candy. I am not exaggerating!

Like I said above, it's really all about the characters. Not that the plots aren't absolutely brilliant, because they are. Sherlock, John, Lestrade, Mycroft, Mrs. Hudson, Molly, Moriarty, and so on. I love how they've all been updated and how they're all portrayed. Each's personality is carefully thought out and well done.

The friendship between Sherlock and John is of course one of the central aspects of the show. If that didn't work, the entire show would crumble. But boy, does it work!

I can't exactly recall how I began watching this. I think I just came across it through Doctor Who (same writers and all) and was instantly interested because Sherlock Holmes! It took me a while from first discovering it, to finally actually watching the first episode though. But I did eventually and I was hooked from the start. There was only one season back then and I had to wait two years for the next. But it was worth it!

It gives you a really good feel for the overtone of the show and the editing is epic!

Anyways, explaining what SuperWhoLock is briefly. It's all three of the shows/fandoms conjoined. It's as if they all exist in the same universe and all the characters know/interact with each other. Fandoms do this all the time, it's called a crossover. But this is one of the most popular and long-running crossovers out there. These three shows are just always associated with one another.

An incredibly well done fan video someone made. It's like a trailer for a 

SuperWhoLock movie. I would watch the crap out of this!
