Now I want a plot where they show that Trudy has secretly stalking Sherlock for years.

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.
Oooh, Watson could confront Trudy and threaten her!

The decoy That Guy is a good gambit. The decoy Trudy gambit deserves a try.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Yeah, that was cute.

Wow, my feelings about the Sherlock special are complicated and require a whiteboard and they make heavy reference to Elementary. Mostly regarding drug use and (separately) Moriarty.
That said, when I realized that Sherlock made Mycroft quite portly per ACD canon in his mind palace, I laughed myself into a coughing fit. Sick burn, Sherlock.

I realize I shouldn't have bothered watching the special, since I haven't been big on the BBC Sherlock, but my whole reaction is the jerk-off hand motion.
And I was pissed about Mycroft shoving food into his face, even when I realized (about then) that none of this was real.

It made me laugh, because Sherlock is SUCH a dick.

I turned it off as soon as I realized it was a dream sequence.

I turned it off as soon as I realized it was a dream sequence.
Not all of it, though. In fact, I was super confused as to why they would show the "previously on" if the story was set in the 19th century. (And then it made sense.)
I disliked Moriarty less, but I still don't like him. (And is it just me, or was him sticking the gun in his mouth and licking it SUPER gay?)
And I am fascinated, looking at the show from outside, that the show decided to introduce Sherlock's drug use after all, and I can't help wondering if that's, even in part, a response to how well Elementary has done with it.
Because, honestly, from inside the show, it was ridiculously abrupt to just be like "Oh and by the way here's a list of the many drugs I just took even though it's never been an issue before kthxbai."

I was only interested in it because I thought it was going to be a traditional Holmes tale told by this particular crew. I stopped watching the regular Sherlock series when they introduced Moriarty, because I just don't like that version of him.
I didn't turn it off as soon as I realized it was a dream sequence/memory palace, but when they revealed the killer, I did turn it off. Thought parts of it were legitimately creepy.
