*spoiler alert* Sherlock (BBC) Season 2

Still loving this version way better than the Hollywood movie. But for season 2, I am not loving the Adler story. The chemistry between Sherlock with Moriarty is way way HOTTER than with Ms. Adler.

Seriously the end of the first episode was kinda ruin Sherlock for me a bit and definitely ruin Irene Adler. The actress playing Irene is not young and pretty enough (compare to Benedict Cumberbatch as Sherlock who is really on the young and cute side instead of mature and sexy). For this one I root for the Rachel McAdams version.

It is interesting however the adaptation of Irene Adler as dominatrix. Kinda remind me of Gill Grissom with Lady Heather.

But the weepy lovey dovey ending... God! really? It's almost like the writer cannot decide on letting Sherlock stays asexual or not (the Hollywood version decides to let go of this idea) and decided to sort of stay in the middle but downgrade Ms. Adler entirely. Making HER fall in LOVE with Sherlock, that is just low! You should be ashame.

Well, it was kinda awkward because she is a mature lady while Sherlock is like a cute boy in the series. So except if you cast her as young woman....

FINE, call me judgemental, I don't like cougars.

WAIT NO, cougars doesn't fall in love and get all weak like that.

Anyway, enough about that, I'm gonna start with Moriarty, third episode.

*sigh

Two gorgeous genious fashionable guys, 'flirting' with each other. The chemistry is HOT HOT HOT.

And that's all I gotta say about them. I wonder why both Hollywood and BBC chose this ending at the same time.

Oh, right the second episode. I liked that they cast the werewolf from Being Human to play in The Hounds of Baskerville. It's just approriate
