Last episode was awesome!
I was wondering when the truth was going to come up about Mary (I had a feeling when she was introduced, so I paused it when he was reading her and "liar" and "secret" showed up on the screen).
I agree with Scorpion- this particular villain definitely wins over Moriarty. Gawd, I just wanted to squeeze his face until it imploded. Luckily Sherlock took care of it for me.

Yeah 'His Last Vow' is amazing. The 'memory palace' scene in particular is some of the coolest and forcefully emotional stuff I've ever seen on a show.

Like Sherlock did in Star Trek into Darkness.

Have not seen that, but now I'm curious

Yes, that part was SO COOL.

Scorpion · « **Reply #284 on:** April 30, 2015, 02:38:18 PM »

I think one of the most powerful scenes in the entire show is when he pisses into their fireplace.

bout to crash · « **Reply #285 on:** April 30, 2015, 02:51:23 PM »

I wanted to smash his face into that mirror.

Scorpion · « **Reply #286 on:** April 30, 2015, 03:05:55 PM »

Oh definitely, but I dare say that that was supposed to be the viewers reaction to him. After all, don't they say that the worst somebody can feel about a character is indifferent? I find it hard to imagine somebody feeling indifferent to Magnusson.

Right, which makes him superior to Moriarty.

W00t! Did anyone else just catch the special episode of Sherlock? What did you think?

I thoroughly enjoyed it!

So ticked that my BBC has vanished from my guide. I have no idea why? I haven't changed a thing and it's gone. Must investigate.

SwedishGoose · « **Reply #290 on:** January 02, 2016, 12:12:28 AM »

Been enjoying this series since I found it last year on Netflix...

So stoked for the special... when will it show up on Netflix?

Edit: Just found out that SVT will air it on the 23rd of January... so unless Netflix gets it quicker....

BlackInk · « **Reply #291 on:** January 02, 2016, 03:56:48 AM »

Just saw the special, and wow! That was not what I was expecting. Many great moments. I suppose more detailed discussion will have to wait until more have seen it.

Evermind · « **Reply #292 on:** January 02, 2016, 04:18:34 AM »

I wasn't too impressed to be honest, but yeah, that wasn't what I was expecting.

I do want to see how the whole thing progresses in S4 though.

Here in the U. S. it was broadcast on Masterpiece Mystery on PBS.

I enjoyed it. Eagerly awaiting season 4.

Kotowboy · « **Reply #295 on:** January 03, 2016, 11:23:08 AM »

Great episode.

Really interesting how they bounced around in time towards the end...

It was pretty funny seeing Mark Gatiss in a fat suit too. Doing his Mr. Creosote bit.

ariich · « **Reply #296 on:** January 03, 2016, 02:05:30 PM »

I loved it. Figured out the timey wimey twist pretty early on, but it was still very well done and played out nicely.

Kotowboy · « **Reply #297 on:** January 03, 2016, 02:07:18 PM »

Did you see that thing on twitter which was basically :

" On Sherlock tonight - he got off a plane and got in a car. "

Podaar · « **Reply #298 on:** January 04, 2016, 07:27:16 AM »

We watched the special episode yesterday.

Kotowboy · « **Reply #299 on:** January 04, 2016, 08:39:48 AM »

¡ ¡ SPOILER ! !

- If Sherlock's Victorian fantasy was just him imagining how Moriarty could have shot himself in the head and survived OR How he would have solved that ancient case if he was around at the

time....What was the reason for the feminist sub plot ?

Because zeitgeist ?

BlackInk · « **Reply #300 on:** January 04, 2016, 08:55:03 AM »

Wasn't that how he solved the case? Becuase it was women who did it? Seems logical to me.

Kotowboy · « **Reply #301 on:** January 04, 2016, 08:59:58 AM »

Yes it was many women dressed the same. But that didn't really explain why they had to be a cult of feminists.

Seems like it was just Moffatt & Gatiss shoving it in to seem current.

I think the logic behind it is, Moriarty really is dead but he has a cult of people that want to wreck havoc in his name which is exactly what happened in the Victorian age case.
But from your comment I gather that you're wondering if the feminist thing had anything to do with it, in that case I just think it was a way to explain the fact that they were a cult, that's the thing that brings these group of women together. I don't think it's being used as a sub plot.

ariich · « **Reply #303 on:** January 05, 2016, 12:01:32 AM »

Yeah exactly. Plus including a relevant, interesting topic doesn't mean they were just "shoving it in". I thought that aspect was great.

abydos · « **Reply #304 on:** January 05, 2016, 10:39:42 AM »

Eh, relevant at the time or 50 years ago. I enjoyed the episode but to me that part felt a bit too out of place, especially the way it was portrayed. But I'd rather not get deeper into that topic since it's a whole different can of worms I'd rather not open.

masterthes · « **Reply #305 on:** January 07, 2016, 12:05:55 PM »

I get the impression this season might be the last. Benedict is getting too big, and Freeman is coming into his own

hefdaddy42 · « **Reply #306 on:** January 07, 2016, 12:07:33 PM »

Now that both will have roles in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, I hope that a future film will allow them to have at least one scene to interact lol

Well, Moffat and Gatiss said they've developed a plot for both S4 and S5 already, so it would be a waste not to make S5 in that case. But I guess anything can happen.

Kotowboy · « **Reply #308 on:** January 07, 2016, 02:08:29 PM »

I'm sure Martin & Benedict both enjoy doing it.

Exactly. Both have plenty of opportunities for other work, and yet they keep coming back to this, because they love the roles and the people they work with.

As long as the writing production team keep writing good scripts and schedules continue to work out, I don't expect them to quit making Sherlock.

ariich · « **Reply #310 on:** January 07, 2016, 02:53:46 PM »

Yeah and it's not like Moffat has masses of free time with his Doctor Who responsibilities. But the four of them always say that they'd like to keep making it as long as they can and just fit it in when they're able to.

Kotowboy · « **Reply #311 on:** January 07, 2016, 03:21:16 PM »

I love Sherlock but I don't count down the days til it's back on.

The gap between series don't seem that long to me because i'm not waiting for it.

faizoff · « **Reply #312 on:** February 08, 2016, 06:21:00 AM »

Finally got to watch the special and really loved it. I don't think there is any episode I don't like. I'll have to rewatch all the episodes but off hand I don't remember not enjoying any episode. I thought depicting the mind palace was a really well done premise. Goes to show how intricate Sherlock's thinking goes.
I do wish these were more abundant but I guess part of the charm is that they come in short bursts and make the episodes that much enjoyable.

Kotowboy · « **Reply #313 on:** February 08, 2016, 06:27:54 AM »

I think it makes the writing that much better if they're not writing like 10 episodes a year.

They can focus on three really great stories once every two years.

BlackInk · « **Reply #314 on:** February 08, 2016, 08:30:53 AM »

Or three years... Or four...

But yeah, I agree.
