Lots of rumors swirling the Internets these days as Sherlock fans seek separation anxiety comfort for their continued efforts to find out what’s happening with series 3, which is headed our way, most likely in early 2014. Up until now, technically, all we ‘officially’ know about the third series of Sherlock was that it would [...]

Final five Poirot’s with David Suchet will not disappoint
When ITV announced the go-ahead on production of the final five small screen adaptations of the Hercule Poirot stories written by the late Agatha Christie, it was not only met with mixed feelings by Poirot fans worldwide, but also from the actor who has invested 22+ years of his career playing the infamous Belgian detective, [...]

Since early 2012, the world (minus Steven Moffat and Mark Gatiss, of course) has been left wondering just how Sherlock Holmes survived the rooftop fall from St Barts Hospital at the end of series 2 of Sherlock.

Post Downton Abbey, it’s time to get the Sherlock 3 band back together don’t you think?
A panoramic view of the set of 221B Baker Street, currently under construction, courtesy of the show’s production designer Arwel Wyn Jones is enough to make me forget that it’s been a little over a year since Benedict Cumberbatch and Martin Freeman have been a part of our collective mind palaces.

It’s 2013 for Sherlock on PBS…ok, maybe not THAT Sherlock
Unfortunately, with production set to begin in March 2013 at this point, we’re not talking about the Steven Moffat/Mark Gatiss greatness and long-awaited premiere of series 3 of the BBC’s brilliant Sherlock series, even though it may still make it to telly by the tail end of 2013. But, we are talking Sherlock…albeit a bit [...]
Could Moriarty return for Sherlock 3?
Could Moriarty return for series 3? Early on, Sherlock co-creator/writer duo, Steven Moffat and Mark Gatiss, had an idea just how Sherlock Holmes’ arch nemesis, Jim Moriarty, would appear. Moffat explained, “Moriarty is usually a rather dull, rather posh villain so we thought someone who was genuinely properly frightening. Someone who’s an absolute psycho.” ‘Absolute [...]
Post-Super Bowl decision is Elementary for CBS
At the risk of alienating a number of Tellyspotting readers and the throngs Sherlock fans around the globe, I am here to admit that I’m coming around a bit (accent on ‘a bit’) to CBS’ Elementary series. There are two reasons for my momentary lapse of cynicism. Jonny Lee Miller and Lucy Liu. Overall, while [...]
