15. Yes. Drunk Sherlock’s drunk deductions were undeniably the best.
“Egg… sitty thing?”
16. Although some people thought they spotted a similarity to another TV character.
Wait, this is just a modern reboot of Mitchell & Webb’s Sir Digby Chicken Caesar, right? #sherlock

20. And a lot of people couldn’t help notice that for a long time the focus of the episode was mostly wedding logistics.

27. (We take a short break here to spend some time considering the bit where Sherlock ruffled his hair.)
28. Meanwhile, others had important issues on their minds.

30. The sportswear of the Holmes clan was another topic.
Nobody needed to see Mycroft in Lycra. Surely he just frowns a bit and the fat cells explode like the terrorist ones.

36. It turns out that Irene Adler keeps turning up in Sherlock’s Mind Palace at inconvenient moments.
37. (Oh, and we learned that Sherlock’s Mind Palace is the London Film Museum’s debating chamber.)
38. Not entirely sure what’s going on in this picture from the show’s makeup designer but WHO CARES?

39. By the end, the episode had won some of the doubters round.

42. And it’s definitely still fanfic with high production values.
Ok yes; Sherlock pissed to Rihanna. It is fanfiction. In fact I think I might have WRITTEN this fanfiction.

I think it's really kind of the BBC to basically film loads of the cracky fanfiction that goes on in my brain & call it Sherlock S3.

44. But lots of people are concerned that everything’s been much too lighthearted and that therefore the Hammer of Tears is about to come crashing down.
If you’re convinced the next episode will be soul destroyingly depressing because the last two have been so fun clap your hands. #Sherlock

46. But we’ll leave the final word to a friend of Mr. Cumberbatch, who has IMPORTANT INFORMATION to impart.
And final word before nighttime coma - drunk Sherlock terrifyingly, hysterically similar to a drunk Cumberbatch :)
