So fascinating...The music particularly. I like watching Martin Freeman and thought he was pretty cute. Benedict talks fast but somehow I don't feel the same speed of brain as the classic Jeremy's Sherlock...

Not sure when PBS is going to air the season 2.

    I loved this version, so much better than the Robert Downey, Jr. movie (at least the 1st one is there a new one coming out?). I eagerly anticipated each episode, and was sorry when it was over, but loved the cliffhanger ending. Should see more of Moriarty soon! I love that the PBS version is set in the 21st century.

    Can't wait for the new season, here is the info from the PBS website:

    "From MASTERPIECE MYSTERY!, premiering at 9:00 p.m. May 6 and continuing through May 20, Sherlock Holmes stalks again in the three-part “Sherlock, Series 2.” This modern version, set in 21st-century London, stars Benedict Cumberbatch (War Horse) as the go-to consulting detective and Martin Freeman (The Hobbit) as his loyal friend, Dr. John Watson"

    I was a bit disappointed of the second season however...The first one is simply amazing all the way!

    I LOVE Sherlock! It aired a while ago in the UK, and I'm very happy that it's reaching a wider audience in the US and such like! I cannot wait for the third series, hopefully we don't have to wait too long!

    I think it's sometime around Christmas. They don't make enough of them!

    Ooh Christmas is the best for television. Doctor Who special, and now possibly more Sherlock!

    I have Season 1 on DVD and recently bought Series 2 and thoroughly enjoyed it! "A Scandal in Belgravia" features a picturesque Irene Adler (Lara Pulver) and the exchanges between her and Holmes are nothing short of brilliant! "The Hounds of Baskerville" a more familiar retelling of classic Holmes stories and "The Reichenbach Fall" is a fitting wrap up for the series, full of twists and turns. I anxiously await Season 3!

    Benedict Cumberbatch has to be the most fascinating Sherlock ever.

    I never liked the story of "scandal" not original nor the new one...Guess I can't stand the fact that Sherlock is losing the case in any way. LOL I think she's so pretty but somewhat I don't like the look as much as I wished.

    I love this show! I haven't seen season 2 yet, but I found it online and I've been trying to find time for it for weeks now. It's my second favorite show, after Doctor Who.

    One of my fave shows, Benedict Cumberbatch is brilliant in it - Reichenbach fall was one of my fave episodes so far but I wish they would make more episodes each series.

    I love it! It's so fantastic!


    The sad thing is that Season 3 won't even start filming until early 2013! :sad:

    Great show. Rumor has it that Benedict Cumberbatch is playing Khan in the next Star Trek movie. He's pretty great.

    Started watching Sherlock not too long ago when I was all caught up on Downton Abbey. Now I'm hooked on both!

    I wish there was a "like" button on here because I liked and agreed with so many of the posts. I would like to say that BBC is rather awesome and I had heard that Benedict Cumberbatch was gonna be in the next Star Trek movie too.

    I just finished watching the first season. Only 3 episodes? Grrr. Anyhoo, I thought it was pretty good overall. The build up to the reveal in the last episode was handled well. I'm eager to start on the 2nd season here momentarily. :)

    I'm a huge fan of Moffat's/Gatiss's work on Doctor Who, so Sherlock was always going to be a favourite for me. The second season was truly well done, particularly The Reichenbach Fall.
