Thoughts? (Gonna comment below to avoid spoilers)

Honestly, I thought it was pretty disappointing. I loved this show up until the last several episodes, but the whole Mycroft (and Mycroft/Watson) storyline really messed up the dynamic imo. I'll watch next season because I'm hoping it'll get back on track but it's not a finale that has me counting down the days until fall or anything.

No one likes Mycroft/Watson as far as I've seen. NO. ONE.

I like the idea of Mycroft being framed. Which brings up who is framing him and why? A made up villain for the show or something from the books?

Haha, yeah, that's basically what I've seen too. Well, there's been like...two people who like it that I've seen but the overwhelming majority seems to hate the pairing, and I've seen several people say they're not going to watch next season because it's ruined the show for them. I won't go that far but it's obviously incredibly unpopular.

Hmmm, did they not tell who framed him? I was thinking there was some sort of explanation of who did it (I can't remember the guy's name though) but I was so bored at that point that I probably wasn't paying close enough attention to what was going on.

They did explain it - it was his MI6 handler.

I did like that he had to fake his death, so hopefully they won't go there with SH.

Ok, thanks. That's what I was thinking, but then mekkio mentioned wondering who it was and I thought maybe I misunderstood something.

I liked that, too. After the past couple episodes I had a feeling they were going to go that route, so maybe they won't go there with Sherlock. (Not that I'd mind but they've done it in so many adaptations that it'd be nice to have something different.)

Weeeeeeeell, I've been avoiding fandom for most of this season, so I don't really know what the general consensus has been, though I gather most people are disappointed in the finale. As am I.

I actually really enjoyed the last few episodes with Mycroft. I really like Elementary's version of him, and I like his and Joan's relationship and how petulant it makes Holmes. Though I really shouldn't have been I was actually surprised by the revelation that Mycroft was MI6. I felt that the preceding episodes built a lot of awesome momentum for the finale, and I was really looking forward to it.

And - it fell so flat. The way they framed Sheridan being the mole as some kind of surprise seemed almost insulting to the viewer. And there were some lovely individual bits, mostly courtesy JLM's acting - like his final plea for Joan to stay in the Brownstone and his vow to Mycroft to fix everything - but in general, it was lacklustre and anti-climactic.

As for next season, I am not looking forward to Sherlock relapsing, especially it it essentially emotionally blackmails Joan into staying. That would be tedious and I assume will take up a lot of the season. What I am looking forward to, however, is Sherlock working with MI6, because of the interesting cases he might be involved in (I think I am a rare viewer who actually enjoys the case-based filler episodes, if it's an intriguing mystery, more than the plot and character advancing eps).

I'd also like to see Joan having fun in her own apartment, and maybe meeting her Mr Mary Morstan. Oh, and I want more Mycroft. You can never have enough Mycroft. <3

I could have done without the Mycroft/Watson thing tbh, I didn't really care when they first hooked up but it was out of nowhere then they tried added feelings to it and it really didn't work for me.

It wasn't the most exciting of finales but I enjoyed it.
