Aaaaaand the first ep of Season 2 of SHERLOCK aired today!!!!! . . . I've only been able to watch the first hour so far, but I mostly like it. I don't see the reason for implying the love interest other than to be obnoxious but whatever. I like that John's snark is coming out more. Sherlock in a sheet and nothing else in Buckingham Palace definitely deserves comment. :D
