Sherlock Season 3
Has anyone read the reviews for the (available for pre-order) DVD/BluRay of Sherlock Season 3? If you want a good laugh go here. Here's a couple for your enjoyment:
**Spoilers (You Know You Want 'Em)**
Like the previous series, each of these episodes is its own beautiful movie, with the love story and plenty of corpses threaded throughout each, though I was surprised in Episode One when they decided to completely abandon the crime solving aspect of the premise. But Moffat knows best and this decision of his allowed more time for long lingering looks (though strangely the same amount of dead bodies).
I was particularly impressed with the second one: who would have thought an all nude episode would have been so effective? It definitely hit all the right buttons for me.
And "His Final Vow," what can I say? I'm so thrilled that John's moustache proposed to Sherlock's cheekbones. I know their marriage will be a bond to last all time.
To be honest, my main reason for ordering the DVD in the first place was for its historical value. I just wanted a visual reminder of the moment the Internet finally imploded and the new law that all future web postings had to include #johnlock was globally enacted.
********
I can't believe how many people have reviewed without the courtesy of warning for spoilers - not everyone wants to know what happens before they've watched the show!
So... SPOILERS

I must say, it was a master stroke to combine two shows - I never expected the TARDIS to show up while Sherlock was in mid-fall, allowing him to be saved from certain death, then returned just before the point of impact, being lowered gently to the ground and playing dead for Watson. Plus it allowed Benedict Cumberbatch to go off and be the Doctor for four years before returning to Sherlock without anyone noticing.
