Sherlock is not dead!
So many mysteries solved.
Watson asked to hush.
I’m so intrigued by this serialized storytelling, and the ways it relates to television shows today. I can think of so many shows that close a season not knowing whether they’ll get to return – so there are false endings and momentary resolutions that keep us wanting more. That’s the way it feels with these Sherlock mysteries – constantly referencing Sherlock’s retirement or his requests that Watson stop sharing stories.

Yes, yes! So interesting to think of the serial book (Dickens, too) in light of T.V. shows – especially the ones with long arcs, like LOST and Battlestar and Parenthood (and and and).
And I’ll say it again: the return of the haiku makes me so happy.
Thank you! I always feel like a hack when I’m writing each haiku, but I enjoy them from a distance.
