izardI am fond of BBC's Sherlock, seasons 1 and 2. 3.1 was a bit dull, but OK. 3.2 is really weird. I've seen some reviews, they usually stress that first 60 minutes is more like a drama/comedy rather than a detective story. I think that last 30 minutes of the story makes it even, but what I really did not like is that this time a criminal was way smarter than Holmes!
Spoiler under the cut:
OK, Holmes found the culprit. He made a good reasoning based on two critical pieces of evidence he had on his hands. However obtaining both these pieces was a matter of pure luck! What if the guard did not go to Holmes to report a stalker? What if a woman did not report his missing lover? After all, missing lovers is a common thing, and reporting it to a famous private detective seems very strange!
