to see the next. I just love Sherlock. I have only recently discovered that I love Sherlock Holmes so I dont really have anything to compare him to. He kind of reminds me of House. Which only makes sense since House is loosely based on Holmes.

There are some moments in the latest episode that are just wonderful, beyond golden, I really recommend not spoilering yourself, it's awesome! Whenever you see it kick the thread and let me know what you think?

it was great! I so love it. I hope they make many more to come. So, why did Moriarity decide NOT to kill them in the beginning? Why would he listen to "The Woman"? And I thought Sherlock was gay? I guess he is NOT! My DSL was running slow so I found it on a streaming site. Thanks again for the heads up, do you know when the next one is scheduled? Oh well I guess I can go look! Also, if that guy was killed with a Boomerang, where was it, why didn't the police recover it?

Moriarity found out that The Woman had information that was valuable. Moriarity likes to throw a wrench into things and screw with Sherlock, and when he found out that The Woman needed Sherlock to solve the code, he got pissed off and just let it go.

The next one will be the 8th of Jan, and then the last will be 15th of Jan.

I know people won't like the "asexual / omnisexual" distinction, but what I mean is during cases and most of the time he's asexual, but he *can* be attracted to people.

I don't think he's a virgin anymore now...

Are you out of the US? I watched the first season online and loved it. Didn't realize it was coming back on now, so I'll have to check the listings on PBS.

* I mean where as in online, on pbs, etc. not what location.



Aha, I just found the listing at PBS.............. Thanks for the heads up Josh!

It took awhile but I finally found a place where it said that these upcoming 3 episodes are an "encore presentation". Too bad. Glad you caught it, thanks.

Not QUITE as many wonderful parts as the first, but still had me loving it. There is something about these Sherlocks that has me missing something? What was the deal with Mycroft holding Moriarty, then letting him go?

I didn't get why Mycroft was holding Moriarty, perhaps it's foreshadowing for the finale. Which will end in a cliffhanger. Which I'm not looking forward to.

I knew they signed on for another Series but I didnt realize I'd have to wait. Although, I can't say I liked how it ended. I so love the evil playful ever so bothersome Moriarty! And although I had a feeling, it was all part of Shelock's plan he had with Molly I did say When he actually jumped! Poor John. I love man love buddy characters. It is not too often men will show platonic love for each other. I have always loved that dynamic in a story.
