  in my opinion. Now, because of polling that shows its immense popularity with young women, it's beginning to invent major female characters. Somewhere, Doyle is rolling over.

    also the silly visual effects (clues around victims) are gimmicky, I do not remember them from previous seasons

      but not nearly as prevalent as this season. I am a bit puzzled at the comedic shift in Sherlock's behavior. It's like the character is now more important than the mystery. Moffat and Gatiss may be reacting to all the fans and tweaking the stories to please them.
      
      Only ONE more episode and season three is dead. Disappointing that they go for three 90-minute shows rather than a more conventional series.

      • five 60 minute shows would be better, I agree the 90 minute show is not necessary... - PhilJ 14:05:18 01/29/14 (1)

        hopefully they get back on track and give Sherlock some gravitas

        • Absolutely. He's become a somewhat ridiculous figure. The series has become a soufflé. nt - tinear 14:07:40 02/01/14 (0)
