Sherlock season 3 (possible spoilers)

I finally got a chance to watch the new Sherlock episodes a few weeks ago and...just..wow. I love how they integrated fan driven ideas about how he faked his death. Unless you wish to go the consiprancey rout and say  that most of those theories were planted through various internet outlets and message boards by the writers themselves just to keep the flame lit. I rather enjoy the thought of them actually paying attention to the fanbase. Now what are we going to talk about until they put out season 4?

Moriarty.


Moriarty, Moriarty, Moriarty.

First off, as a geek girl, I absolutely squeed when he and Sherlock kissed. I immediantly messegeMorisrd several of my fellow nerd girls, all of whom have been biting their toungs raw at this point, just...well...there were no real words to phrase it. One conversation went as this:

Me: Dude. Moriarty. That kiss...

Friend: I know!

Me: !!

Friend: HOW THE HELL HAS IT TAKEN YOU THIS LONG>???

Me: !!!!!

Ok, I'll stop girling out on that. The scenes with Molly, though. Come on. If she was in on it, I find it difficult to believe she would have gotten engaged to someone else, even if he was (or she made him) just like Sherlock. I think Molly probably molded the guy to be like him. Perhaps as a way to deal with the grief of thinking she lost him. I did enjoy seeing her in charge of the relationship for a change. It must hae been a little gratifing to the character to be followed around by an obiediant puppy instead of the reverse.

What almost made be shoot Dr. Pepper through my nose, though, was (can you guess?) Watson's moustash! I absolutely adore how they poked fun at him about it throughout the episode as well. Made my entire day.

Jameson now. More geek later,
