Anyone else watch this besides Mal and I?

It's a British show about Sherlock Holmes but it's set in modern times. I heard nothing but good things so I decided to watch it on a whim recently. It's fantastic. The writing is top notch and consistent and the acting is great.

Each season only has three episodes, but each are an hour and a half. They feel like movies a bit, that's why there's so few. I just finished the second season the other night. I loved it

Everyone should watch! First season is on Netflix

Was that the show featured in the video that Mal posted in the final day of ATTWSII?

If so, I have seen that much of it!


Yup!

The way the deduction scenes are shot are really great too. Very creative

Just watched this with the girlfriend a few weeks ago. Really solid. S1E1 and S2E3 are my running favorites with S2E2 being the only episode I can't say I enjoyed all that much.


Yeah those two episodes are great. S2E2 was a bit different, but I enjoyed it. I read that each season three episode is supposed to 'represent' one of three things, love, horror, thriller. I thought the Baskerville episode was pretty good overall. Watching Sherlock be afraid and not be able to trust his own eyes was really cool. And I liked their unique/modern take on the Baskerville story

Glad you watched it/like it Boc

Personally I really love the ending to Belgravia. One of my favorites. Just the way the scene was done with the fade to black and then the text tone, then the music, it was all great. And I didn't expect it at all

I've read a lot of theories about the final episode. Homeless network, biker, he asked Molly for help, he used the chemicals from Baskerville to trick Watson, etc. But I also read that the producers have heard about all of these theories and say that none are right. They said that there's a clue hidden in the episode that explains it all but no one has picked up on it that they've seen. Very intriguing

It was awesome. Apparently it aired in the UK today so I watched a perfect quality version online. I didn't realize it was airing in the UK so soon so this was a TREAT

The part at the restaurant and Sherlock's disguise were hilarious, especially each time John lunged at him and it quickly cut to the next scene. I loved those moments. Martin Freeman's reaction to seeing him the first time was great too

I thought both fake explanations were so funny. The shitty print out of Sherlock's face onto the dummy with the phone taped in place made me laugh so hard. With him and Moriarty giggling and suddenly realizing they were in love, so funny

The 'case' was the weakest point because there really was no case. It seems to just be setting something up in the near future. Sherlock tricking John with the train bomb was great at least

I liked how they used Anderson as the voice of the audience throughout it. "Hmm..just not the way I would've done it. I'm a little....underwhelmed". The real solution was fine for me. The only part I hadn't thought of was the use of the person who had looked like him that Moriarty used

My favorite interaction was Sherlock and Mary at the restaurant

"Oh my god.."
"Not quite."
"But you died!"
"No."

His delivery was perfect
