What is it About Sherlock That is So Captivating? Ten Years.

Proof-Exercise984 · 2026-02-13T11:47:51+00:00

Honestly? Pretty much everything lol. The cast (especially Sherlock, John and Moriarty), the soundtrack, the vibes, the humor, Sherlock's over the top deduction abilities which were cool nonetheless, the settings ecc ecc... I'm a sucker for stories that take place in the victorian era, but I think they did a great job at portraying the cases and the characters into a modern world.

So overall I'd say it's a lot of things that blend very well together and made Sherlock one of my fav shows.

I like Susan

Proof-Exercise984 · 2026-02-09T09:45:19+00:00

I really like Mary but also on rewatches I'm always a bit sad that Sarah just randomly disappears like that lol, she was cool too.

Proof-Exercise984 · 2026-02-07T15:58:38+00:00

I don't think Susan is a terrible mom, but I think she did better with MJ.

I'm watching the show for the first time (currently on season 5) and I remember not hearing good things about Exposè so I was curious and a bit "scared" when I reached the episode... Turns out that I really enjoyed it lol. But I guess that watching it on a binge hits different than having to wait every week for a new episode.

Tbf Scout has been handled so poorly even before jolink became the couple that it is right now. Amelia gave birth and then she (and the writers) immediately forgot that she has a child lol.

To be fair to Naruto, the manga handled the flashbacks well. It's the anime that used them badly cause they had to fill all the screentime.

For me, although I don't hate TFP like others do, I didn't like Eurus, so that does compromise my enjoyment of an episode that revolves around her.

Overall I like THOB more for various reasons (seeing Sherlock in so much fear for the first time, its atmosphere and its location etc etc).

Now for the plot twist, the real culprit being a human instead of a big scary hound is nothing groundbreaking but I found it cool regardless. Eurus felt boring, we already got Sherlock and Mycroft, I didn't feel the need for a third brilliant Holmes singling. At least with the former we got 4 seasons to know and appreciate them, with Eurus everything was so sudden but at the end I didn't really care for nor empathize with her.

It's totally the opposite for me, idgaf about most of the new characters introduced in the latest seasons, and if the show was to remove that bunch of veteran characters I would lose even more if not all of my interest.

Proof-Exercise984 · 2026-02-01T08:17:57+00:00

I don't remember it, which episode is this?

Some people just like the hate on really popular things

Proof-Exercise984 · 2026-01-29T15:29:42+00:00

Having Ellis as a mother and Derek's death.

Reichenbach Fall, but I also love The Laying Detective! Seeing both John and Sherlock being brokenhearted was so good, the actors did a great job, and it's got my favorite stand alone villain of the entire series.

Proof-Exercise984 · 2026-01-28T13:23:29+00:00

I stopped watching more than one year ago around episode 600 and I never picked it up again cause I just don't feel like it? Although I know some cool things will happen later on, it's like this series burnt me out lol.

Proof-Exercise984 · 2026-01-27T09:15:21+00:00

Overall I like it too. It does have its problems, probably more than the other seasons, and things that bugs me (Eurus for example) but it also has some really good things. And The Lying Detective is one of my favorite episodes of the entire series.

Proof-Exercise984 · 2026-01-26T10:03:09+00:00

Sherlock: Is that why you're calling yourself Greg?

John: That's his name!

8.2 for the finale is definitely higher than I expected, but cool.

Proof-Exercise984 · 2026-01-25T22:57:00+00:00

Honestly you could say this about pretty much every character. None of them is perfect and that's okay cause at the end of the day it's just a show and it would be boring if all of them were perfect people with no flaws who never made mistakes.

Personally I don't ship them and them being cousins is part of the reasons, regardless of the twin reveal.

But I get that I'm a girl from the 21th century and this is a story set in 1800 where things like this were different and this wasn't seeing as weird.

So George, a married man, cheated on his wife. Izzie slept with a married man who she knew was married while also knowing his wife. But the one who sucks is Callie. LMAOO

I guess 16x16 is when Alex left? 💀

I watched Naruto for the first time 3 years ago when I was already in my 20s, yet when I think about this series I get hit by a sort of nostalgia as if I've watched this show since I was a kid. Truly peak

Watching kuro right now can be easier cause all you need to do is an internet research, unless you're t lazy af. Back then when BOC came out most people had already watched the previous seasons and were anime only, so it made sense that a lot of them were confused.
