Don't get high Sherlock. I totally thought he was going to relapse just to get Joan to stay.

Also I look forward to Sherlock Holmes, MI6 Agent next season

Does anyone else think that's he's going to use MI6 to clean up Le Milieu for his brother? He was incredibly uncomfortable when he found out that Mycroft went back in to protect him, so I can't imagine the level of indebtedness he feels now.

They've been pretty good about actual curveballs. I liked where it went.


Who gets custody of Clyde?

Would have liked this finale a lot more if Sherlock had put Clyde in his pocket instead of the heroin.

Man...that scene with Sherlock going "I will fix this" was intense. Good stuff. Next season should be interesting.

Wish there was Clyde though.

Maybe he will team up with Moriarty to take them down :getin:

We still don't know anything about her mentor, there's only been one cold case touched so far, the heroin from the book is now in Sherlock's pocket, what's gonna happen to Clyde, Romulus and Remus if Sherlock's out playing secret agent and Watson's moved out?

So many things for S3 to consider doing. I wonder how many they even intend to go with, if any.

I liked the way this episode played out. All the spy stuff and personal drama hit the right notes and didn't feel overdone. Mycroft explaining his fake death was the first time I felt like Joan really cared about him. It was low key, but it might have been the best episode of the season.

Not sure about all the stuff going forward based on the cliff hangers, though. Hopefully the teasers with Sherlock working for MI6 and Joan moving out are just for the first episode or two, and things are back to normal quickly. Bell and Gregson were criminally underused the second half of this season, and I'd hate to see that trend continue.

Sherlock's description of Mycroft to their father was straight out of Doyle's stories, wasn't it? That sounded familiar.

Yep, I recognized it too, it's conveniently on Wikipedia so I didn't even have to search it down: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mycroft_Holmes#Profile

So was his "Data, data, data! I cannot make bricks without clay." to the MI6 guys right before that.

Ms. Hudson will still be taking care of the place, I would imagine.

Sorry, I just marathoned the last like five episodes of the season! Season three set for September or is it going to be super delayed again?

I can't find anything on an air date (not for a lack of looking), but it does have some new cast members...

Opehlia Lovibond as Holmes' new assistant... Kitty Winter.

And Raza Jaffrey as Watson's (currently unnamed?) new boyfriend.


One of them certainly has my interest piqued all the more to say the least (a sort-of antagonistic character who was only in one short story (Illustrious Client; lady threw acid in a guy's face, kinda hard to spin that as a good thing to do) as Holmes' new partner is a rather curious decision) so I really can't wait to see where they go from there.

Season 3 premieres on October 30, according to Wikipedia.

EDIT: That's after CBS's turn with Thursday Night Football. That's why it's weeks into the season.

I wonder if we're finally going to meet the Holmes' father. It would be kind of cool and Dr. Claw if we never do.
