Steven Moffat: 5 Reasons To Love Him and 5 Reasons To Hate Him

1. Sherlock

Does this entry even need explaining? Sherlock has had a total of six episodes, and already it's one of the most influential and downright perfect shows currently airing, with stars Benedict Cumberbatch and Martin Freeman rivaling Robert Downey Jr. and Jude Law in terms of performance quality.

It's a show that takes a lot of risks, but with the vast majority of them not only paying off, but doing so in the most perfect of fashions. Substituting opium for cigarettes and actresses for prostitutes, the modernization of Mr. Holmes could not have been handled by a more worthy candidate. Who else but Moffat could make a taxi-driver into a villain, or a campy, derping Moriarty so threatening?

With perfect acting, writing, direction, tone and story, Moffat and Gatiss trump 'Elementary' every time (Sorry American citizens, but making Watson a girl? Really?).

So the next time you're about to say Moffat's worthless in his entirety, just remember... Sherlock. That is all.

Now, moving on to the part you all want to read, the five reasons he sucks. Let the Moff-bashing commence.
