In this episode they abandon the simple case all together and have it be focused on a murderer named Culverton Smith played annoyingly by Toby Jones (and his teeth are so gross!). So I was very annoyed by Episode 1 but little did I know that episode 2 was going to be even worse. Plus, knowing this show I felt it wasn’t a real death so it didn’t really move me the way it should have. Urgh!!!Īnd then Mary dies and we are supposed to feel bad about this but I so didn’t care. It seriously goes nowhere the cheating plot.
#Review sherlock season 4 series#
I really could care less about Mary as some secret spy and then the melodrama keeps getting piled on.Īnd worst of all THEY MAKE JOHN A CHEATER!!! John Watson who is the moral center of the series cheats on his wife and daughter for no discernible reason at all (not that there is ever a good reason to cheat). Then they have to tie it back into Mary and her being a super spy, a plotline I hated from season 3. There are busts of Margaret Thatcher being destroyed at homes across town, which totally seems like classic Sherlock Holmes style storyline. So why does season 4 suck so much? Let me count the ways.Įpisode 1 started out with some promise as it was focused on an actual case involving the disappearance and death of a young man. I should have known because season 4 took that path and went off the deep end. Since then we have gotten 2 more seasons that were solid but season 3 started to feel a little bit gimmicky with Sherlock escaping death and them never explaining it. Plus, it introduced me to Benedict Cumberbatch who we have all grown to love as one of the great actors working today. I normally don’t like modern retellings of classic stories but this managed to keep true to the spirit of the Conan Doyle books and characters and so I fell in love with it. I have been a big fan of Sherlock since way back in 2011 when it first aired in the US. Sherlock Season 4 sucked so bad I can hardly believe I sat through it. What I have always been is a huge Sherlock Holmes fan and as such I was eagerly anticipating season 4 of the BBC show Sherlock.


You know how last year Batman fans were so disappointed with Zack Snyder’s latest film? Well, I’ve never been that big on Batman so I wasn’t that disappointed that it sucked. Well, we have reached my Batman v Superman.
