What ARE the major rumors/spoilers about season 3 that you've seen? I haven't been following any of the buildup and I'm not planning to watch as it comes out, but I'm planning on keeping an eye out in case something grabs my interest...

[blueonblue]

thewalkingassbutt.tumblr.com/ was posting vague spoilers from the screening and answering more detailed questions privately. Now fuck-your-fanart.tumblr.com has been spamming the Sherlock tags with the answers to those questions, so if you want to spend time reading spoilers, that's where you'll find them.

It seems "The Empty Hearse" will be more action-orientated, Sherlock vs terrorists, instead of Sherlock being clever and solving cases.

...that second blog is a thing of beauty. Brings a tear to the eye, it does. XD

FFS, are there any mysteries in this show that are story-worthy because they're weird and interesting rather than because they're high-level crimes?

[(Anonymous)]

No.

What, they didn't do enough of that kind of stuff already? Or do they just want to make the Irish bomber shit a tad more blatant?

Non-BBC!Sherlock watcher here with a question

...I've been hearing a lot of spoilers and general info about the show and from everything I've heard, I gotta ask:

Are there any clients in this show? You know, when some ordinary person, not a police officer or government official, runs into personal trouble, doesn't know what to do, and goes to Sherlock Holmes asking him for help and telling him their story?

Is that a thing that happens on this show? Are the fans the ones not interested in the clients, or are there in fact, no longer any clients?

Oh, they had "a nod" to that -- a fifteen-second montage where they "interviewed" clients and John wrote up barely pun-worthy titles for his blog ("The Geek Interpreters" etc.) and that was it. They basically turned into an over-egged joke.

On a serious note, no, they won't have clients, because they (Moffat/Gatiss) have decided Sherlock is a psychopath/sociopath so of course he's not going to want to have anything to do with people....

Wow...really? Not just no clients, but also mocking the idea of having clients or taking them seriously?

Thanks. That killed my wondering about whether I should take the time to watch this show over the Christmas holidays pretty fast. Or maybe I should watch the episodes anyway just so I can argue with my sister who loves this show.

There are client montages. :(

As a Sherlock Holmes adaptation, Sherlock is kind of terrible. The first time I saw "A Study in Pink", I hated it. But as its own thing, maybe a show called Dude in a Coat, it's fun. I watched it last Christmas, came away obsessed with DI Lestrade, who is really not a Lestrade, and wrote so much fanfic. ACD wasn't the greatest prose stylist or most consistent writer, but writing in ACD canon always felt more intimidating to me than writing for Sherlock does.
