Three 15 year old young women, Ruby, Kiana, and Robyn discuss BBC America’s Sherlock in their first ever podcast using little more than their laptops and Skype. So sit back and enjoy; who knows, we may all be subscribing to their shows in a few short years.

SciFi TV Rewatch ·

2015/04/30

Lagertha' got it all: looks, bravery, motherly instincts, and a warrior's spirit. So just how hot is she?
