all of that. I hated the Irene subplot. It just didn't fit with all the Sherlock clinging to Watson and the far better Mary and Sherlock dynamic.
I'm sure they could have plugged in Moriarty in there without a woman in the mix, but hey, somebody would have been mad at them more for there not being a woman for Sherlock or more women in general in the film.
And for those who thought/think Sherlock and John could get together in the season...no. They make jokes and address the issue of the gay subtext one could see in the original stories if you were looking for it, but I don't see how they could not address with one of the writers being gay.
Yeah...it's fine to speculate and wonder but at the end of the day, it's just an adaptation. Of course not everyone is going to be happy, but for only three one-and-half-hour episodes to have created such solid version of Sherlock has to be given some credit.
Gonnna go read some angrybeige comics now...gotta shake off the need to rant.
