After a two year hiatus, Sherlock finally returned with a highly anticipated one-off Christmas special (sort of) set in Victorian England.
One thing, however, can be deduced: No one, and I mean NO ONE, was more excited about the special than BBC Three, which proceeded to live blog the entire endeavour.
Its official Twitter and Tumblr feeds are a gift to humanity.
.@BBCOne right now:
Waiting on @bbcone for tonight's Sherlock episode like...
Less than three hours to go... #help
It was just as dead as we were in the countdown towards the episode.
THREE MINUTES TO GO #SHERLOCK #AAAHHHHH
It was there for us, providing words of wisdom and blankets of shock.
Once it began, it had gifs and memes for any and every occasion.
It's HAPPENING!! This is how @bbcone is probably feeling right now #Sherlock
We'll give it to Mary, that was quite an entrance. #Sherlock
OMGOSH HOOPER WHAAATTTT!!!!!!!! #Sherlock
John casually leaping to Sherlock's defence #mmmyes
"All emotion is abhorrent to me." Oh, Sherlock.
"Why don't you two just elope for god's sake?!" #Sherlock
It understood the importance of purple to the fandom.

And engaged in some flirty and otherwise mildly suggestive banter with BBC One.

@BBCOne
It knew when it needed help.
@TheRealLauraG halp
Did John Watson just dashingly rescue Sherlock... inside Sherlock's mind waterfall? #Sherlock
And asked for it when it all got too much.
@bbcthree
We would like to advocate this pretty cool alternative... #Sherlock
And was generally as much of a mess as we were by the end of the 90 minutes.
"You've been reading John's blog, the story of how you met!" 😭😭😭 #Sherlock
That. Was. AMAZING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Just a few decades to wait til the next series (:
Never change, BBC Three.
