BBC's Sherlock: Series 2

[Asteroid-Man]

MAY!? That's so far!!! I was hoping it would fall in March/April so that I would have something to watch after Spartacus and before Game of Thrones.

 

[Wolfwood]

Why is it taking so long for them to make this show? The ending of the last episode was aggravatingly good.

 

[Nightwing 52]

CAN'T WAIT for this show to come back. May does seem far away but when it comes to dates they can fly by fast. It's like when we were all waiting for Arkham City all those months ago and now voila! Glory!

...

Dear Sherlock, I eagerly await your return to London's streets.

Sincerely yours,

Nightwing.

The Final Problem was supposed to be the last one, but popular demand (and a huge amount of money!) convinced Doyle to bring the character back. At first with Baskervilles (which does indeed take place before TFP) But then with The Return Of Sherlock Holmes, which chronologically takes place after his 'death'.
The Final chronological Holmes story, I believe, is His Final Bow.

(Sorry, I'm just a huge Holmes-Geek! )

I realized that actually. I have read them in published order, not chronological order in the universe. It's also a bit confusing how some things aren't acknowledged directly at all like [blackout]Watson's wife dying[/blackout]. It's acknowledged in that [blackout]he's single again[/blackout] but there's only vague reference to what happened. I blacked it out because even though this is well over a century old, someone would complain about a spoiler.

Sherlock returns, Sunday,Jan 1st, 8.10pm, BBC1. First the woman, then the Hound and then, of course, the fall...

 

[Crockett]

January!! Not May?

Thank god.

 

[rashad]

Nice!

 

[jonathancrane]

Yes!
I cannot wait.

 

[Gold Samurai]

I've never been so excited for just three episodes of a series

 

[obin_gam]

I wonder how they're gonna do Baskerville. I mean, the story is basically a scooby doo mystery and it fits with the victorian age paranormal spooky stuff, but how are they going to translate that to the modern era without it seeming... well.. ridiculous...?

 

[Wolfwood]

Oh thank God, January 1st? Going to be a great way to ring in the New Year.

 

[Boom]

I think it's January for the UK, and May for the US.

 

[Crockett]

For those who haven't seen it, promo shots of Irene Alder and a pic of Moriarty.

A spoiler-free review of the first episode, this blurbs is all I needed to know.

To close, A Scandal in Bohemia is one of the biggest and most famous Conan Doyle stories. In our opinion, A Scandal in Belgravia is the biggest and strongest episode of Sherlock seen thus far. The ultimate display of mind games between the sexes, its richer, more confident, more complex, more surprising, more emotional, funnier, darker, and somehow displaying a greater degree of tension than anything in series one, it sets a high benchmark for the other two episodes in series two. The greatest question is, when it explodes onto television screens in the very early New Year, what other drama onscreen in 2012 has a hope of matching it?

Loving the casting of Irene Adler!

Beyond glad, that it airs in Jan.! Can't wait for Season 2 to get rolling.

 

[Wolfwood]

I think it's January for the UK, and May for the US.

Eh....I'll torrent it then, sorry, but I can't wait till May.

 

[RoboAmish]

Sigh, that pic of Moriarty seems to suggest he'll be hamming it up as badly as last season

Oh well, still a lovely New Year's Day treat to go with the Quality Street. Hopefully the hangover will have cleared by then

 

[Asteroid-Man]

January!? Thank God!

 

[TheVileOne]

So how did they escape at the end of the last episode from the first series?

 

[Wesley Dodds]

We dont know yet. We'll have to tune in too find out.

 

[Liam_H]

Some promos for the new season...

[marcvader]

Looking forward to it.

 

[Wesley Dodds]

Can't wait for this! Wonder how they survived series 1's finale... any theories? Knowing Moffat from his Doctor Who work, he's a man who likes to write his way out of cliffhangers via flashbacks, using them to eveal information that the viewr wasnt previously aware of. Bearing this in mind, it wouldnt suprise me if Sherlock had deduced what was going to happen and called Lestrade before going to meet Moriarty. I'm envisioning a last minute save fom the cops while Sherlock and John dive into the pool. Heck, it might even be revealed that john was in on it.

 

[Nightwing 52]

Bring on January!
