Re: What Was The Single Most Devastating Moment In Fandom For You?

I was really disappointed when S3 of Sherlock finally aired and was even worse than I’d been anticipating. Like, “I wash my hands of canon” kind of bad. I wouldn’t say I was devastated, because I’d been in fandom too long and been burned too many times by other things I was fannish about to be truly devastated. But I was disappointed, disillusions, and a little disgusted.

Yeah, this was me. Everyone seemed to be on-board with S3, so I felt really left out in how much it put me off, but like... the first episode back literally insulted us for caring? And that's our jumping-off point? It was such bullshit.

Mary was a fucking travesty, and I still kind of resent people who thought she was in any way a good character or well-written. And this has nothing to do with Johnlock; I don't even ship it. Ugh.

I do/did ship Johnlock, intensely (not in a tinhat way, for the record), so I can't claim to be non-biased. But I do agree with everything you said, very much.

I went into it expecting to be deeply disappointed, because I could tell they were going to handle the resolution of the Reichenbach plot in a really obnoxious way. Also, I really, really didn't want them to bring Mary Morstan in as a major character, and it was clear that Mary Morstan was going to be a major character.

But then it turned out that literally everything about the first episode was crap, and John getting hitched was the least of my disappointments. It was like the basically decent writers of S1 and 2 were abducted and replaced by horrible writers trying to mimic S1 and 2 and doing it atrociously.
