Season 3 was, for me, the beginning of the descent into the arrogance-fuelled, they’ll-like-it-anyway screenwriting platitudes that I believe Sherlock currently finds itself in, and I may return to rant about it, particularly episode 3 of that season, at another time. Unfortunately, the same cannot be said of the more recent episodes, chiefly the most-recently-aired Abominable Bride. They were also, most importantly, easy to follow and fun. They were well-shot, well-acted, mostly well-written and cleverly updated the Conan Doyle originals to fit the modern day setting in a way that very rarely felt tacky or forced. I want to quickly say that I really loved seasons 1 and 2 of the BBC’s Sherlock. A (perhaps a little too much) in-depth discussion of the problems of the Sherlock Christmas special: The Abominable Bride.
