Moriarty is dead, and here comes another villain. The upcoming season is expected to explore darker themes, compared to the past seasons. It was speculated that Mary will eventually die in the series, as it was her fate in the short stories.
All this episode did was rob her of a fitting death. Died from a misdirected bullet from an elderly secretary's gun? You deserved better Mary. We deserve better.
Darkness has reached 221B Baker Street, perhaps truly for the first time... but first let's take a moment to be grateful that there is a new episode of Sherlock.
The great achievement of Sherlock is that despite the long breaks between new episodes, the show always returns with a bang. And this season 4 premiere was no different.
Ultimately, it just didn't feel like a contemporary adventure for the famous detective, but the latest episode in a espionage-laden soap opera in which the art of detection is, sadly, incidental.
This time around, they got it spot on, combining rewarding scenes of Sherlock's smart-aleck detective work with grand series arcs, empathetic character evolution and a shocking and series-altering death.
The return of Sherlock has been a return to form and proof that Gatiss and Steven Moffat are two of the most inventive minds working in British television.
