I sort of feel like that too. I enjoyed it more on rewatch (maybe because I wasn't so excited and knew what to look forward to), and I certainly didn't hate it or anything (it could've been better, for sure), but the amount of pandering was sort of ridiculous and took me out of the moment; it felt like fanfic. (Not saying I didn't find the kisses amusing or hot, it's just...they didn't need to be there. Anderson's group gave me secondhand embarrassment. Yes I'm a shipper, yes I'm a slasher, but these sort of things being brought up in TV shows typically makes me cringe. Looking at you, SPN.)

Plus, there was very little actual case, but I get that Sherlock and John's reunion (and Sherlock's other reunions, too) was so important that the episode needed to focus largely on that. Still, the pacing was a bit weird because of it.

IDK if it's just me or if the writing was a bit off or what, but yea, hopefully the next two episodes are better.

Though an anon above (in the 'unpopular opinions' thread) said that people have been waiting on the episode for so long that maybe nothing can meet those kinds of expectations, and that might very well be part of it.
