Sherlock

As of a few minutes ago, I've just finished watching the finale of Sherlock. I am so glad that I managed to remain completely unspoiled for every detail of what transpired. Certain things I didn’t expect. Now that I’ve seen it, I’ll soon be off to read each and every response from everyone else. While trying to avoid everything, I still managed to put links for all the entries written by everyone on my friends list into a Word document. (Pointedly looking away the whole time, lest I see a comment I shouldn't.)

Without spoiling anything for anyone that hasn’t had the opportunity to see it yet, I will say that I loved it. Martin Freeman did a spectacular and heartbreaking job, as did Benedict Cumberbatch--especially in one scene in particular. Also, am I the only one that had flashbacks to Life On Mars at one point?

They did a brilliant job with this episode, and I’m pleasantly surprised that the writer did so well—knowing what else he’s written, I didn’t expect much.

While I'm not spoiling here, there may be spoilers in the comments. So if there are any, read at your own risk.
