I was so hung up on the dollars vs. any other currency thing that I failed to notice or question the fact that the preferred plan costs less than the basic one, that the preferred one is apparently billed annually even though it’s listed as $9.99/month, and that the lifetime plan is FOUR TIMES as expensive as the basic plan for twice the amount of stuff
Why would you need fifty trustees, is it for your homeless network???
How is this a website which hires Serbian television actresses? Am I hallucinating it? The whole thing feels like a fake 1-800-555-TJLC telephone number in website format, it’s a goddamn Musgrave tombstone
I’m team “Redbeard actually was a fucking dog and I will cling to this until Moftiss pries it from my cold dead hands”
Wow I didn’t realize so many people were in this boat with me, hi new friends
Team “Making Redbeard into Sherlock’s murdered best friend makes the HLV scene make absolutely no sense – that scene only works if Redbeard is a dog dammit” right here.
Same. The Redbeard=Victor had me 🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄
And yes, the HLV scene makes no sense with this new info.
And like…the scene in TSoT when Mycroft is like “do you remember…Redbeard?” it’s like…really fucking mean of Mycroft to bring that up when Sherlock is already heartbroken if Redbeard really was a person. I mean, yeah, Sherlock doesn’t know he was a person, but wtf, Mycroft, that’s just fucking bitchy.
Okay but can we talk about how Mycroft implies that Eurus wasn’t sent away because of Redbeard and John is like “Why was she sent away for a missing dog?” and Mycroft is like “It’s what she did after” – like, holy fuck don’t send the kid away for kidnapping a fucking CHILD and relentlessly teasing her brother on how he’ll never find him for I think was said to be WEEKS, but burning the house down. That’s just too far. Who saw that coming?
LIKE WHY WAS SHERLOCK THE ONLY ONE TASKED TO FIND THE MISSING CHILD!?
Mummy and Daddy Holmes – worst adults in the whole fucking show.
SO? This gave me instant anxiety! As everyone has noted, this is the shittiest marketing campaign ever for a company that’s supposed to offer a source of comfort.
I literally cannot enjoy any readings that reference or condone Mary’s voiceover to the two of them at the end. Sherlock and John do not need, and have never needed, a third party to give them permission to be anything to themselves or one another. It’s a blatant disregard for their character growths as individuals and as a team to allow for this extra voice to dictate what is or is not okay to be, to feel, to become. Just. No?
Yes any third party would be ridiculous but certainly not the major villain who’s hurt and separated and manipulated them. She’s the *last* person who should have the right to do that and that, combined with the actual content of what she’s saying being directly opposed to what the show has been saying, is why this seems like a blatantly contradictory bizarro-world thing. It’s one of the main reasons that have hope–it’s not just off but way too much of a polar opposite of what it should be. Evil queerbaiters or no, I can’t process that it could be real, given literally the entire previous show and everything they’ve said about these characters they love.
