Pour one out for Angie Tribeca, the second greatest police procedural of all time. (The first is, of course, Police Squad!)

I don’t know, I thought A Scandal in Belgravia and The Hounds of Baskerville from series 2 were two of the best episodes. And even though The Reichenbach Fall had its issues, it also gave us plenty of Andrew Scott as Moriarty, which more than made of for some of the weaknesses of the episode.

I was never a huge fan of his Sherlock. The best Sherlock is still Jeremy Brett and the best Moffat is Peter Capaldi-era Doctor Who. The Matt Smith years were frankly a bit of a mess, for a lot of the same reasons his Sherlock was a bit of a mess.

“Somehow, Moriarty returned." Just have Oscar Isaac say it and a new series is off to the races.

Just do a live action adaptation of Sherlock Holmes in the 22nd Century?

I’d watch it if they turned it into sci-fi.  Might as well at this point.  Let’s get a hologram Moriarti along with some jokes about how Star Trek already did that.  Eurus runs the world now and Holmes and Watson are on the run and hiding or something.  They already made it completely ridiculous, might as well lean…

You really don’t need to watch any further.

Yeah it was definitely a case of a solid series that went on way too long, with the characteristic intricately-plotted Moffat stuff becoming the characteristic convoluted Moffat stuff. It doesn’t need more.

I liked the first two series but I quit watching after that. 

I mean...Conan Doyle believed in fairy photography, so being a dummy doesn’t disqualify one from writing good Sherlock, lol

you know, far be it from me to defend Sherlock, a show that was mostly stylish garbage, but in the original story Holmes noted scratches on a pocket watch from its winding key, and extrapolated the same conclusion. moffat and gatiss had a lot of bad ideas, but in their very mild defense that particular bad idea was…

Also, I’ll never forgive Moffat for taking Doctor Who from “This is Rose. Rose works a menial job and longs for something more. Her character arc will be finding out whether that life of adventure is what she really wants, and whether she and the Doctor are good for each other” to “This is River Song. She is the…

Sometimes I lay awake at night thinking about how it always takes me one or two attempts to plug in my phone charger, and how Sherlock would extrapolate that to me being an alcoholic rather than just generally uncoordinated.

Peak “dumb show cosplaying as smart” energy. 

Considering the 9.1 rating Sherlock has on IMDB I am trying not to just sound like a contrarian by pointing out that the show is actually pretty bad. Not to take one low-point and make it stand in (the unbelievably hackneyed “Sherlock is the real menace to society” storyline could as well...it wasn’t exactly “In a…

Considering the diminishing returns of each series after the first, maybe it’s best if they don’t come back.

it'd be hard to write a worse ending than the one this show gave us I guess. honestly it should have ended with Reichenbach Fall which was genuinely fantastic, but I'd watch a comeback if they fucked around and brought Andrew Scott back as Moriarty somehow. goddamn he was great

That’s practically murder mystery convention at this point though; Agatha Christie was famous for playing fast and loose with which poisons did what, to the point of literally creating a fictional author character who’s always getting stuff wrong to poke fun at how much she did this.

‘Rian Johnson’s Glass Onion is exactly knotty whodunit’

“Thankfully, Rian Johnson knows what he’s doing.”

She’s right, in a way, it sucked so bad it should have bombed.  It was awful.
