And that's all I'm going to say about that. :P

Anybody got some good Sherlock series 3 recs? Preferably of the Johnlock variety (though I would be happy to give other things a shot)? Or how about some AUs? Or any older series 1 or series 2 inspired WIPs that have suddenly started updating. I am fascinated by those.

In the Three Patch Podcast’s reaction roundtable to The Sign of Three, several of us observed that although the episode was supposedly about a wedding (the one word hint we had been given by Moffat and Gatiss) we never actually saw a wedding, only a reception. However, upon revisiting the episode, it became clear that we did indeed witness a ( Read more... )

I avidly followed all the #setlock reports and filming updates, it was exciting to finally see all these bits and pieces come together in the finished episodes. However, not all the moments fans saw filmed were used.

I tend to rewatch past episodes of Sherlock while doing fanart. So although my focus isn’t on the details of the show, being somewhat detatched can spark a connection I wouldn’t otherwise have made. This happened recently during a rewatch of Scandal, my favorite Sherlock episode, when Mycroft replied to Sherlock’s ( Read more... )
