While sorting through a bunch of comments I hadn’t realized were waiting for approval (sorry!), I looked at my Squarespace stats and realized that my post on the way Sherlock’s first season uses your screen to display the characters’ text messages is still one of the most highly trafficked pages on this site. So I’ll take this opportunity to post a big pretty picture of Benedict Cumberbatch let anyone who might be waiting for a followup know that I haven’t yet had a chance to watch all of the second season.
The first episode, which has a lot of on-screen text, and a mobile phone as a major plot point, suggests there’s a lot to talk about, but I want to see what happens in the next two episodes before making any grand claims about Paul McGuigan’s baroque period.
