I'll just wait and see if S4 is any good or not. But I'm not looking forward to sitting through a year of inane media hoopla while we get there.

Make. Good. Episodes. I do not care except for that.

The media hoopla always seems to bring out the worst in some people. I'm not looking forward to having breadcrumbs flung at my face all year, "See, SEE how CLEVER we are! Look at how clever!"

I just want to hide under a rock.

Yes, it’s the ‘look how CLEVER!!!11’ that annoys me most. Because the cleverness of the first two seasons was one of the things I enjoyed most. But the BBC juggernaut has apparently decided that bludgeoning the cleverness to death and parading its corpse for regular worship is their strategy for keeping people engaged. And if they’re after people who are only going to give Sherlock sufficient thought to switch the TV on when the episodes air, they *are* probably getting it right ( ... )

All I can say is--thanks for putting it in words. I feel exactly, EXACTLY, the same.
