Anyone watching Sherlock...?

[noel711]

The cliffhanger on the finale blew me away.

Is Sherlock dead...?

What are your theories?

1. One more hour til it starts here but I read the reviews/etc on imdb.

Since he is alive at the very end, watching the funeral/burial/whatever, he is alive. How did he do it is the question.

2. Homage to "The Final Problem" by A.C. Doyle

This was another gripping episode, but when I watch it again I'm going to view the subtitles! Some of the dialogue is just impossible to hear / understand.

Anyway, great series and I'm hooked.

3. Yup. I ordered the DVD, should be here next week. Need to see the words because it is too fast and

muffled talking. It is a great series. Poor John. He is so used and manipulated and used by his friend. The interaction between the 2 of them is great. ooo, 45 min, just checked when it's due on. Glad I checked as I had it in my head for an hour later.

Did you see the first season?

5. YES

First season was amazing - some of the best TV in many a year! Glad to see they're still in top form.

4. Spoiler.....

As shown at the very end, he is still alive. The lab assistant helped him set up the "death", hauling him off so quick with the fake medical personnel. Sherlock turned the tables on Moriarty by outguessing him and out acting him, before and on the rooftop. Why did he choose to stay dead? There's someone over Moriarty he has to take out, and my money's on the reporter.
Either that or he just needs a break to try to get a little more human.

6. spoiler questions

Why did Moriarty kill himself? I know it was suppposedly so Sherlock would have no option but to kill himself, but is that all? The obsession drove him to it?

Was it really Moriarty?

Why did the little girl scream when she saw Sherlock? Did someone wear a mask or be made up to look like S when kidnapped her? What happened to that mask/person?

Poor John.

7. ohhhh...good questions! Spoilers

I thought of Moriarty wearing a Sherlock mask for the kidnapping, but didn't consider it wasn't Moriarty on the rooftop. If that's true, then Sherlock and Moriarty are *both* alive. Delicious.
If it really was Moriarty, I would think it would be ego and obsession for the suicide reasons.
I'm going to have to watch it again.

8. Thank you!

Some of your views are far more detailed than I can go;
I'm just hanging unto the cliff... or rooftop in this case,
and just as despondant as John...

The more I see of this series, the more impressed I am with the
creativity of the writers and producers...
Thought it was just another version of the old stories,
but this is so much more.

And.... perhaps this muddies the waters...
but there's such an intimacy between the characters of
Watson and Sherlock...
are they more than mere roommates?
Would an emotional relationship between them add another modern twist
to this version of Sherlock Holmes?

I am addicted ot this series, and its distracted me greatly from
my "Downton" jonesing...
