Ah, the British. They’re droll accents allow them to get away with anything. Asked about what he thinks of his counterpart CBS’s “Elementary,” the Watson to Benedict Cumberbatch’s “Sherlock,” claims to have seen bits and pieces, mostly dismisses the question, and then calls Lucy Liu a dog, in what is CLEARLY a joke.

But if Brad Pitt says that, or Angelina Jolie, or half of America’s A-listers, someplace like HuffPo will pick it up, take the quote out of context, ignore the video evidence, and level it against the other celebrity as an actual insult because that’s how we roll in Amuhrica!

Never stop being you, Freeman.
