2014 : Year Kicks Off With Sherlock
The perfect start. Sherlock returns after two years, how can I possibly not talk about it! The arrogance, the wits, the mind-maze, the uncanny feel of London. Oh! How much I missed Sherlock and his companion, John Watson. The charade that we all tried to deduce in the past years comes to its revelation. Don't worry, I wouldn't dare to spoil it for you. Though I will be honest, like Anderson, I was too disappointed. I expected a much fancier or exceptionally "brilliant" method of Sherlock's. But lets be real, had that been the case, the logic would fizzle out completely.
The episode starts with Anderson and Lestrade sipping coffee. Anderson blabbering about his weird theories, still not convinced that Sherlock is dead. Guilt surrounds him all over as accusations of being fraud are cleared from Sherlock's name. When everything seems right and Sherlock culminated the last bit of the "Moriarty Web", he returns to London. His mostly likely first person to visit? Sherlock cheekily says 'What life? I've been away'. John doesn't welcome Sherlock with open hands but with a bleeding nose *Oops!*
If You Haven't Watched Sherlock, You Haven't Lived. |
The characters are like the usual. Same old shy Molly and delicate Mrs Hudson but you will see Mycroft like never before. At last he does prove himself as the 'elder brother' of Sherlock Holmes.
Personally, I'd say I loved John's character. He happens to be the only person with heart. The frustration and the emotion, to see your best friend, the greatest man ever known to be alive, after being dead! Well, Watson pulls it off in the most realistic manner. Mary, she is sweet and smart. Also might be the only one to be convinced that John is not gay!
Could the viewers ask for more?
It's our right to ask for much more! We Sherlock fans have waited for so long. Nevertheless in my opinion, it was the perfect start to the year and to the series.
Tireless Brainer is extremely overwhelmed by Sherlock's return. She's smitten by Cumberbatch's charm. Also she wishes you all a very Happy New Year...full of stories! Keep Reading
XOXO
