You're a big guy.
Hopefully they do something novel with it being set in olden times. I'd have thought Moffat would be done with victorian London after every other dr fucking who episode was set there.
oh, indeed.

100% agreed. As I said, some very meta stuff in that trailer.
Did the pipe not work for anyone else besides me?

Oh, that trailer was great. It has been far too long since we had some new Sherlock.
Here's the Andrew Scott, Benedict Cumberbatch and Mark Gatiss greeting message.

Oh my god I was wondering if he was going to be in the special. This seems to confirm he is?
BUT WHEN ? =O
Yes, this is why the soon thing made me go wtf

They've always hinted at the special being a Christmas special, so yes it'll most likely air close to the holidays. After all, we got Many Happy Returns on Christmas Day so one would hope they air the special around Christmas too.
Probably means very little. The BBFC ratings are a little bit weird (The Dark Knight is a 12, for instance). And it could just be filler, I remember there being so much speculation about the Daredevil rating according to Netflix before it aired and then it finally changed to its actual rating about two weeks beforehand.

I'm thinking it might be related to Anderson's role in the special from those Setlock pics, since he had a leather apron on. Might possibly be hacking up corpses or something.
I mean, even with Molly, you'll see a brain in the bowl but you won't see the cadaver with the empty skull.
It probably means Watson gives Serlock a bj...
Too much?? :/
yeah ... he should know that Sherlock/Moriarty is the canon OTP of the show

I'll probably drag myself to go see the special in theaters if it's available.
Probably will be a good time if they do.

You're damn right it is.
To me, the whole Sherlloly ship is so Mary Sue-ish, and not in a good way.
But if people like it, more power to you.

This is, like, objectively true. Ship all you want, those two were made for each other.

All I really want is character development for the supporting cast, that's all.
* Rupert has supplied bits and pieces for his headcanon of Lestrade's story at both SHERLOCKED and SDCC, but I doubt we'll ever see it written.
* Sally has been a background character, like Anderson, yet she hasn't been fleshed out like Anderson. It sucks because so many "fans" hate her yet of all the cast, she is actually the one character who represents the skeptical non-Sherlock fan. She's been in every season yet there's absolutely nothing about her as a character.
* Molly has gotten a bit more development but sad that the most interesting tidbits are from her blog. Hell, she has a cat named Toby and likes Glee, but all we really know so far is was once engaged, dated Jim from IT and crushes on Sherlock.
* They've also had Dimmock, Gregson and referenced other Yarders but I'd like to see a few more or something...
I get that Sherlock is based mostly on. Sherlock and John, but really, I want established supporting characters to actually be characters, not just chewing scenery.

It's one step from people who claim Frodo and Sam are gay. TWO MEN CAN BE REALLY GOOD FRIENDS.

Seeing this thread bumped reminded me I still hadn't watched the last episode of Series 3, so I went on Netflix to watch it tonight. The episode reinforced my feelings of the first two of the Series 3, the show has gone wildly off the track and got stuck in its own ego. Really disappointed about it too, I enjoyed the first two series greatly.
Was this series generally liked by everyone?

Overall I liked it, but I have same issues with it like you (I think) - I prefer Sherlock solving crimes and hope they leave the "soapy" tone of S3 behind. S1 & S2 >>>>>>>>> S3, but S3 is still better than almost anything else on TV.
Funny, I thought the finale was the only episode that didn't get stuck up its own ass.
I'm sure the Lighthouse will show it. They're up on this sort of thing.
agreed. I also felt it was a return to the form(at) I love so much.
it fell hard, for me, including the last episode. Self-referential and I'd say, even arrogant. Hoping S4 will tone down the frankly irritating, excessive humour and reciprocal dick-sucking
