After 3 years, the game is on again as Sherlock’s fourth season promises to deliver more mind-blowing episodes filled with shocking twists and revelations.
BBC’s TV adaptation of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle’s Sherlock Holmes is back at it after a long hiatus, following season three which aired in 2014 and a special episode last year. Sherlock Holmes (Benedict Cumberbatch), John Watson (Martin Freeman), and the whole squad made us ride a rollercoaster of emotions again with the new episode called “The Six Thatchers.”
1. All Sherlock fans when BBC announced Sherlock’s return on January 1:
Sherlock came back with a bang for New Year and fans were excited for the new episode!
2. After the long wait, the game is officially on again.
Sherlock fans indeed are the most patient fandom!
3. While watching the season premiere, everyone was like: “Oh, what a year to be alive! Happy New Year, indeed!”
4. Some couldn’t even contain their emotions!
Well, who could when we’ve waited 3 years for this?
5. The first part of the episode were all cute and fluffy scenes with Mary (Amanda Abbington) giving birth to Rosamund or Rosie as we call her.
6. Sherlock trying to discipline little Watson is the cutest thing!

9. Seriously, this was all of us.
