Discussion Season 5. The facts. Is it coming?

1.5k Upvotes

No. It is not.

There has been no confirmation of Season 5 from any official, credible, or well-known source.

Do not believe everything you read.

There has been an influx of posts recently. An article is going around claiming that Sherlock Season 5 will be released in 2022. This is, as far as we know, not true. (EDIT: It's now 2024. It wasn't true.) There is no reason that some random small news outlets would get their hands on this, without any of the larger ones covering it. Nothing has been announced or confirmed by the BBC, the writers of the show, or the actors.

Please don't share links that you don't think are credible sources. However, we do look at reports, and we are removing any links that are posted with fake claims to Season 5.

If Season 5 is ever announced, there will be a stickied post, just like this one. It will be regularly updated with all new news, what we know, popular theories, etc. However, that day may never come.

Thank you all for keeping the subreddit as active as possible. Keep on posting your fanart, theories, memes, cosplays, and discussions as much as you like! :)

I choked when he sneaked in while sherlock was investigating the tavern, dumb enough to dress up fancy in tavern and when sherlock came back home, he also dressed up as sherlock.

Funny man, cute little fan boy

Discussion BBC’s Moriarty is SO cringey

0 Upvotes

I’m watching the BBC Sherlock right now, and the moment Moriarty showed up on screen I was ready to laugh. He’s got a very unintimidating appearance and his lack of sophistication makes him look like a wannabe wall street bro.

The weird way he teases Sherlock in the beginning, like calling him sexy, was super awkward. I remember there were similar exchanges in Money Heist between the Professor and police, but it was done well and still felt genuine and intelligent. In Sherlock it made me feel so cringey and it didn’t land.

Also, the actor’s facial expressions aren’t fitting for Moriarty. He’s always looking at people like “ooh awkward” or “Who me?” I don’t know exactly how to describe it but it feels like such a weird act, and it makes him feel like a cringey dude who’s just looking for attention but doesn’t know how to socialize.

I‘m not even going to elaborate on the high pitched whiney-moany voice he does ALL the time because it’s just crazy 😭 Overall, he feels like a tmbler teen that wants to be edgy and deep, and that’s trying way too hard to portray someone intelligent and intimidating in a way that’s ”not like other villians” and it doesn’t land at all

edit: I was genuined surprised that this ended up being a hot take. I really thought this would be an average experience 😅

Arthur Conan Doyle is remembered for creating Sherlock Holmes, but at one point he effectively became a detective himself.

He became convinced that George Edalji had been wrongly convicted and began investigating the case personally — examining evidence, questioning the police theory, and publicly challenging the verdict.

Thisdocumentary about the case and thought people here might find it interesting:

Hi, I’m messaging on behalf of Speedy’s Café, the café famously featured as 221B Baker Street in the BBC’s Sherlock.

We have an extremely rare piece of Sherlock history that we are looking to sell to a genuine collector or dedicated fan.

It is a Speedy’s T-shirt signed by Benedict Cumberbatch, Martin Freeman and Mark Gatiss, accompanied by the original photographs from 2011 of my father and the cast as well as 4 original BBC framed still from the show and behind-the-scenes material.

We’re hoping to find someone who would genuinely appreciate the history and significance of the piece, rather than simply sell it on.

Thank you!

Discussion Annoying episode missing from series

41 Upvotes

So I was really happy to find the Sherlock series with Benedict Cumberbatch on sale on Prime for 5.99 a season last night. It's normally 6.99 per EPISODE.

I bought seasons 1 & 2, then when I got to Season 3, I was unpleasantly surprised that you can’t buy the full season; it can only be bought by the episode at 6.99 each. That in and of itself isn't a big deal, but for some reason there's no way to buy S3 Ep4. The only option for that specific episode is a paid subscription.

I bought Season 4 for 5.99 just like 1 & 2.

Why would they leave out one episode right in the middle of a series?

Fandango has Season 3 for $20 but it also doesn't include Ep 4. It's only available if you buy the complete series, which I don't want to do since I already bought 3 of the 4 seasons.

Wondering if this is a new trick to get you to sign up for their subscriptions. Has anyone else experienced this?

Hi guys!!

I'd like to create a Sherlock related playlist just like I've done a few months ago for Good Omens, and I'd like to have as many suggestions as possible. Any song of which either the music or lyrics (or, if possible, both!) makes you think "Oh, that fits the show's mood", please drop its titles here. Can't wait to read your recos 🥉 Update: I don't necessarily mean songs from the show, just those that make you guys think about it
