I neither believe that Mroiarty is alive* nor that we have seen the actual answer to Reichenbach.
Agree. Also we have only seen electronic evidence of life. Could be malware he planted in case of his death, or spread by a colleague for whatever reason. Hell, either Sherlock or Mycroft could have planted it to avoid Sherlock going to a mission that amounted to a death sentence. Not saying any of those are true - just that Moriarity being alive is far from the only conclusion the evidence supports. Honestly, I hope not, because no I did NOT miss him. Not this version. Give me a coolheaded villain or a hotblooded one, but not Mr. Jitters.
They tease us with the bowtie bit (a little too cliche, thanks for resisting, POI)
In an alternate universe, they had to make a quick stop at Carter's place for her to fix Reese's tie. It might be the same universe where Castle got canned quickly because they had some bland guy playing him, because Nathan Fillion was still doing Firefly. This might be the world with no shrimp.
So right there with y'all on the Moriarty thing.
I don't think you guys want the manifesto
I do. Strangely, I like to read rants I agree with online.
I really liked the last ep, ESPECIALLY the whole sequence following Sherlock being shot. Wonderfully imaginative, smart and yet very visceral.
Scrappy, did you notice the plant?
Shir, if Moriarty was not dead, then there is no reason why anyone would know that he had been on the roof (much easier to disappear before the body is found, and if he knew that Sherlock would be alive to tell the tale, then he would know that Sherlock was alive and wtf even, right?), and both the "fan" theories about The Fall include him.

I'd really love to see Moffat try and explain that.
I did not like this week's Elementary, I like Lucy Liu, and I like Joan Watson, but this episode pushed her into Mary Sue territory.
