I have loved the stars too fondly to be fearful of the night.

Maybe it is a "softer" ending because the dad gets to redeem himself somewhat by protecting his son whereas in the Broadchurch ending he had no redeeming qualities.

I'm not sure I agree with that but I can understand why it might be perceived that way.

"We are the Goon Squad and we're coming to town...Beep! Beep!" - David Bowie, "Fashion"

I definitely think it made for a harsher ending given the position that it puts the mother in.

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe

Any storyline dealing with Sherlock Is An Addict will always, ALWAYS get me. It's my damn kryptonite.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

Nobody tell my pacifist mother that Sherlock getting up in that dude's face thrilled me as much as it did.

It was second only to him sitting down all controlled and tense just afterwards.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I am So Wrong, you guys. Two actual NYPD cops were shot and killed, and my immediate first thought was, "They better protect the armory during the funeral!"

You're not the only one. (I also thought, "Shit, did he watch Elementary this week?")

I knew you people would understand.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.

You people are my kind of wrong.
