The fact that Watson can still be a veteran from essentially the same damn war as he was in the books is one of the more depressing chapters of world history. (I know it's not the same war, technically, but really. It is.)

Melee Hell | Bot I only watch their GOT, DW, WW and now Sherlock reactions so I had no idea. Good to know, maybe I'll check them later.

Chasing the cab - in London, it takes a lot to become a cab driver. You basically have to know every street and be able to offer the best route for any trip... it takes some 2 years, from what I've read. So, assuming Sherlock also studied that, he'd be able to anticipate the cab route and, being on foot and more flexible, figure out a route to intercept.

I forgot how good the soundtrack was in this show.

I'm so glad Shane enjoys it! Have fun watching the rest of the season, boys!

Choose neither. In the original dilemma, both pills came with a glass of water. The victims were so focused on the pill, they did not question the water. The pills were placebos, sugar pills. The water in front of the victim was poisoned.

Yeah. Moffat used to emphasize that there were so many villains and so many stories, yet they ran out of steam after Moriarty, and never fully let him go. Plus the show was a victim of its own success, with Cumberbatch/Freeman's stardom getting in the way. Even the increased budget seemed to help screw them over...

Can't wait for you both to react to "A Scandal in Belgravia" and "The Reichenbachfall" - those are the best episodes of "Sherlock" and absolutely fantastic!

ThatAussieGirl That depends on how you look at it, I guess. For me it is clear that she won in the end, by making Sherlock care for her. He cared enough for being there for her when she needed him. To me, she is not only smart but posesses an emotional intelligence. I can understand though, that some people have a problem with her, but for me personally she is a very clever, resourceful and independent woman and one of the more interesting opoonents that Sherlock has.

@Romy-90

ThatAussieGirl Well, I think that the thing with Sherlock and Irene is not that much about sexuality (despite Irene's profession and her sexually "agressive" behaviour), but much more about sentiment. Yes, she may identy as a lesbian or possibly bisexual, but what is she truly saying? She says that she has feelings for him despite sexuality or labels. Emotions are not strictly bound to labels of sexuality. It is all very fluid, is it not? I completely understand that this might come across in the wrong way though. That is just how I undestand her character.

These two are like a Sherlock and Watson reacting, with Rick being the knowledgeable and Shane being the fish out of water.

I'm totally in love with the Shane/Rick duo for this! Amazing Reaction, guys!

Just finished watching "A Study in Pink" in 2021 lol. Sherlock first premiered in the UK in 2010. Benedict Cumberbatch (as Sherlock Holmes) and Martin Freeman (as his assistant and confidant Dr. Watson) have VERY good chemisty together in each and every scene! They're perfomances in this amazing!!! Amazing episode! Amazing production value this show! I hope Benedict Cumberbatch said the famous line: "Elementary, my dear Watson."

Rick, I think you're going to have to resist the temptation to nudge Shane along while he's watching the episodes. Be inscrutable in future, like Aron is during Doctor Who.

Sherlock Holmes is one of the greatest characters, and a lovely representative hero for the ace community. Also my cats (brothers from the same litter) are called Sherlock and Mycroft.

this is even more interesting to watch from someone who knows literally nothing about Sherlock and someone who knows everything.

I can't wait to see Shane's reactions to the rest of the episodes! I think he's gonna love it

I love this show and I love this channel. And I'm sure with Ricks mental encyclopedia of Sherlock , it will make for a fun reaction series. Im looking forward to it

I might just have to get the full length for this. This is probably my favorite show and you will love it

I was amazed that Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's Sherlock Holmes stories were the start of modern day forensic science! It's true, nobody had thought of this stuff before. Then the scientists and police investigators, pathologists etc started to use Sherlocks methods to solve crimes. I know it sounds foolish but it really is true!! He invented modern forensic investigative methods WOW!

I think Shane will really enjoy Sherlock. It's a great show. I hope Shane checks out other British TV shows. We've got some great shows over here and not just from the BBC but from ITV and Channel 4 too. I think Misfits might be his sort of thing.

Never heard Shane talk so much 😁, love it!

It's funny, as I watched the actual reaction I had many thoughts about things I would explain that they might not understand, but in the post-reaction discussions I sat in amazement as Rick covered every single thing I was going to say. The wound, Afghanistan, Rache, all of it. He really is a fan! I am too, and while Jeremy Brett's series is still my favorite I do love 'Sherlock', and I'm going to love watching this.

one of my favorite shows of all time, please keep doing this guys

I LOVE the you guys picked up on that Princess Bride reference!! 💜

Aaaah, I loved this reaction! I’ve been meaning to rewatch Sherlock for ages and this definitely made me stop being lazy and actually get to it. Also I’m loving this dynamic for this team (so we have #TitanTrio and #Firebi. Is this #SherlockedDuo?) I relate to Rick in this. I’m also a huge Sherlock Holmes fan, I’d definitely be the friend saying a bunch of random related tidbits and comparisons. Fun fact, my dad read A Study in Scarlet to me when I was a kid, and I loved the first half, and then the mormon part started and I was SO CONFUSED and very bored. But that happens, when you’re a kid. Really glad Shane’s enjoying this, and going in almost completely blind (didn’t even know that it was modern day). So I’m really looking forward to this. And Shane doesn’t have to suffer through the 1-2 year hiatuses that we did. Lucky him. 😂 It’s fun to see Freeman and Cumberbatch before they both got sucked into the world of the Hobbit and Marvel (FOR BOTH OF THEM! I still find this funny. They keep ending up in the same franchises. Bilbo and Smaug). Speaking of actors, I think Shane might have recognized Mark Gatiss from either Doctor Who or Game of Thrones, as he’s in both of those shows. He’s also one of the creators behind this one, and writes a lot of the episodes (along with Steven Moffat, the other creator. They also have both written a lot for Doctor Who). Fun fact, both Moffat and Gatiss have said that they’re huge fans of The Princess Bride, so I wouldn’t be surprised if that reference that Shane picked up on was intentional. Anyway, really enjoyed that reaction (if it wasn’t obvious by my once again essay length comment), and I’m looking forward to looking back on this show with Rick and Shane. It meant a lot to me when it aired, and I’m always here for more Sherlock Holmes. Looking forward to next week!

About time bruh this show is freaking awesome

Late comment here... Your discussion at the end about showing/feeling emotion - as a kid and young man I couldn't hug or show emotion to anyone, but as you get older (I'm now 55) it becomes more and more natural. These days I find tears running down my face hearing certain songs and watching certain films.

it's awesome to see new viewers to this amazing show. there are only 13 90 minute episodes over 7 years and I doubt we'll see anything new before 2020 (if ever), and some episodes are considered weaker than others, but overall the characters are an absolute joy. hope you all have fun!

I loved watching this show with my father because I’m very high functioning autism and I’m very good at seeing what sherlock is thinking and what’s going on before it happens in the show and my dad is ex british army and he loves the part where wattson (sorry if spelled wrong) says he’s seen too much action but then wants more because that is actually what it is like when you’ve been in the services for a while

Wooooo! This show is fantastic!

actually, the wait for the new season was 2 years, guys. I remember those dark times... But that's because both Benedict and Martin were too busy with other projects to focus on Sherlock. Also, I don't think there will be a season 5 since Benedict said that he's not interested in playing Sherlock anymore. Plus, Mycroft is actually smarter than Sherlock but he's just too lazy to act as a consultant for Scotland Yard - he sits behind desk in MI6 and he doesn't really go out in the field but he still uses his deduction abilities to solve cases. Also, are you going to react to The Abominable Bride?
