I really liked the last ep, ESPECIALLY the whole sequence following Sherlock being shot. Wonderfully imaginative, smart and yet very visceral.
Can't even shout, Can't even cry. The Gentlemen are coming by. Looking in windows, knocking on doors. They need to take seven, and they might take yours. Can't call to mom, can't say a word. You're gonna die screaming but you won't be heard.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

Woe to the fucking wicked.
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.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
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.

I don't know if Mary Sue-ness is the exact problem I have. She's got more backstory than she needs, which might amount to the same thing.

It's that the new backstory doesn't add anything to the character, other than to make her seem more saintly, and to elicit sympathy from the viewers, which really wasn't necessary.
I have enough faith in the writers for Elementary that I'm pretty sure that this is just a blip, and not an ongoing direction for the show.
