I can't find the interview just now, but I believe it was Mark Gatiss who once told an interviewer that they put all this time and effort into crafting the cases for Sherlock, but in the end all people want to see is Sherlock... being Sherlock.
And if The Sign of Three, and to an only slightly lesser extent The Empty Hearse, is how they see Sherlock behaving in his own life, then I'm glad we at least got six episodes of coherent and entertainingly told stories before trotting out every fanfic trope in a single season.
Now if you'll excuse me, I need to finish this bottle of wine and hope the last hour and a half were just a bad trip through the AO3.
