While we're here, what are people's thoughts on episode 2? Especially those who were in love with the pilot (I wasn't 'in love' but I thought it was pretty cool).

I gotta say I wasn't as impressed as I was first time round but that is sort of expected with most shows.

But in regards to Sherlock and Joan, it does feel like they're trying to go down the "anomosity - it must be love!" route, already bringing in the perfect ex who isn't going to be able to hold a candle to the other man in her life at some point (the rich Micky Smith, if you will).

Can't say I'm a fan of that. It makes me miss the BFF-ness of most Holmes and Watson pairings. I get that it's early days but it's what I usually love in other adaptations that the two just 'click' and are meant to be rather than being forced into an uncomfortable situation together.

Just my two cents.

Tbh, I really liked it. I think I'm really enjoying the concept of a Sherlock that isn't perfect - he's really noticeably bitchy and petty.

Joan is pretty great too - she reacts to him very realistically, and doesn't take his shit, but still gives him room to exercise his intellect. She's learning how to work with him as time goes on.

I think people are really paranoid about how the deviation from formula and the introduction of a female is going to affect the story, but... Idk, I like the former and I don't think the latter is going to have a big deal romantically.

It really is early days though. I think everyone really needs to take a step back and give the poor show a chance to breathe and find its legs. If you don't end up liking it, that's okay! But let's just give it some time to get the ball rolling.

I loved the hell out of it. I record each episode on a show like this and watch it twice, and watching it the second time shows a lot of the the more subtle nuances.

There are people shipping them already but I rather keep them as BFFs because they have such awesome banter. The thumbtack scene? Oh lord, I just about lost it.

P.S. I need his scarf.

I loved the second episode. I like that they aren't becoming BFFs right away because well... Holmes is a dick. Would YOU become friends with him right away?

So I liked that they are establishing a slow growth for them. But at the same time you can see the beginnings of trust and respect between them.

I didn't cry, but it's always sad to see a violin go.

I'm just popping in to say "the rich Mickey Smith" is an awesome thing you just said.
