Wat? Season 3 was as good as the previous seasons. All the "murder mysteries" were stupid as fuck, but that's no different from the other episodes. The acting and dialogue was still great.

There is hope for season 4 since Jim Moriarty seems to be back of some sort :)

I watched the pilot of this and immediately hated it. This Sherlock is incredibly pretentious and his "deductions" make zero sense. I know it's like that in the books too, but I don't care. Bullshit is bullshit.

I like it. Mybe this is a hipsterthing? Series gets popularity and some people deem it crap while giving bizarre reasons? Honestly I dont see it. Sofar this season seems roughly the same as the last ones. Minus the random casesolving, but the characters and the dialogue are there.

Bizarre reasons ? Seriously what the main protagonist says sometimes is as believable as "This man died with his hand turned 90 degrees eastward therefore he must be muslim". I grew fond of another, quite similar series called "The Mentalist" but somehow this Sherlock character is insufferably pretentious while the mentalist is just a good guy happy douchebag, even though they have about the same role in the two series.

British TV shows are the worst. I'm sure you can't name even a single decent british TV show, they're all crap.

Actually most of whatever I happen to find on british TV channels is so remote to anything I could imagine anyone would want to broadcast I just get hooked.

Of course it's not as sophisticated and "bourgeois-bohème" as ARTE or TV5Monde and far less neutral than Euronews but what can you do

I wasnt really refering to u, since well we cant all like the same things. I was refering to those that liked the first seasons and claim the current is bad.  I again dont like Mentalist. I've watched a few episodes and it feels incredibly generic to me. I mean by god, Teresa for instance is a totally bland character(based uppon those episodes ive watched). Sure some of this stuff in Sherlock doesnt make sense and he is a complete ass, but it's quite entertaining.
