I wish that was the case on Netflix. I enjoy this show but I loathe the theme song.

I am binge watching even later (obviously) and just wanted to say that I wholeheartedly agree with Lesson #5 in the recap.

I wish I could upvote this more than once.

That's how I watched it. I work the night it airs, so I caught it the next morning on Hulu (including today).

For just a split second after that chilling smile I wondered if he was going to morph into Adam Scott.

I saw it several years ago. I remember liking it a lot but feeling that the ending was rushed.

Indeed. In the original Arthur Conan Doyle story, Irene Adler had no romantic interest in Sherlock Holmes whatsoever (and vice versa).

I applaud this comment and love your username.

The pictures weeping blood were also extremely disturbing for some of us.

What is your source for saying that Benedict Cumberbatch has signed on for another season already? I'm genuinely asking; all the reports I've seen have left it up in the air or leaned toward the "no current plans" end of the spectrum. I'd love to hear differently.

I'm with you.

They've been greatly appreciated. Many thanks.

Well said.

I thought it was amazing as well. I'm astounded by the grade (well, not astounded; this site doesn't particularly like the show this season). Also, for some of us, pictures weeping blood is legitimately terrifying.

Apparently it's quite important…

Yes! Speechless is fantastic!

….I honestly had this reaction before reading the other comments….I'll show myself out….

Sorry if it wasn't clear, but I was referring to the canon of the Arthur Conan Doyle stories, not the show that is being reviewed here.

Possibly the best response ever to questions of plot logic.

No it most emphatically does not. She outsmarts him and he admires her intellect but there is never even the slightest hint of romantic involvement. The fact that screenwriters always feel the need to change this is a pet peeve of mine even in the adaptations that I love.
