Same here. What's the point of bringing in someone like Dormer if she's not there in the flesh to do Sherlock the maximum psychological damage? Sherlock has been doing so well and he and Joan are so fucking adorable together -- that can't last too long if the writers want to go to a more arc-y place. Narratively, he is kinda due for an arrow through his heart.
A year and a half ago, I could have eviscerated him with my thoughts. Now I can barely hurt his feelings. Things used to be so much simpler.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."
I was sort of assuming that was the case. I don't know why, really. I just got a vibe. It was vibey.
There was definitely a vibe from the beginning that she wasn't dead. I think she probably faked her death and it had something to do with Moriarty.

Woe to the fucking wicked.
Definitely vibey.

Looks like TVLine spilled the beans: [link] (beware of a truckload of spoilery info on season finales of something like 30 different shows):
As Sherlock reels at the reappearance of his former lover, Irene Adler (Natalie Dormer), a series of flashbacks unravel the tumultuous events that led to his downfall into addiction. Meanwhile, he and Joan once again find themselves in the crosshairs of the enigmatic Moriarty.

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe
Ah, excellent.

Abbadon will be back in the SPN season finale. Interesting... Thought she was a rather nice addition.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
My Tumblr dash seems to think that Sarah Blake will be back in Clip Show (currently the title of ep 22). Let the prediction and confusion begin...

So - can we talk ASOIAF spoilers HERE???
Interesting point about the Gendry storyline modification from the books from the Atlantic:
It places side by side the two versions of the Lord of Light to whom we've been introduced (Melisandre's evidently evil one, defined by death; and Thoros/Beric's evidently good one, defined by resurrection); it makes more explicit, as you noted, Spencer, the idea that magic is only now returning to Westeros; and it presumably trims another subsidiary character (Edric Storm, for those of you scoring at home) from the plot and replaces him with someone we know well enough to care about. A neat hat trick, if they can pull it off.
Which - if Gendry Waters and Edric Stone are combined - then Gendry will live on.

I don't think that link goes where you want it to... I get a page about The Office ("B.J. Novak on The Office 2.0: 'It Reminds Me of the Show's Early Days'").
