I don't want to downplay the rest of the series, because it's so great, but this one is my favorite episode still. Irene Adler was his match and to see them play off each other again and again was extraordinary to watch. And the way this episode was shot, the transitions and editing were amazing. The emotions run so high too, especially actually seeing something out of Sherlock himself. And my favorite scene of the series *and* one of my favorite scenes of any show is his exchange with Irene when he figures out the code to the phone. It gives me serious chills.
That ending. There was revulsion - how can anyone die that way. There was sadness - one last unanswered text message. There was confusion, then elation - that familiar text message sound. Then there were goosebumps - Sherlock was right there!
This aired in 1 January 2012, and I remember thinking “this is the best tv I will see this entire year”. I was right. Lara Pulver is just fantastic, powerful, vulnerable, dominant, everything is perfect. In case it wasn’t clear from the show, the safe code was her measurements in inches, 32-24-34. Frankly a terrible code, especially for a touch pad. But not as terrible as Sher-locked! You’re right to point out the wonderful editing, but I also want to praise the music. Irene’s theme is so poignant.
Kyuujin Reacts great reactions too! It’s always fun to see reactors getting so excited about something you love. Probably my favourite reaction to Sherlock I’ve seen. Just don’t think too much about Bond Air.
Spontaneous BagPacker I’m apparently the only person who found it uninteresting, didn’t give a shit about a single character in it, and gave up in early S2. Might give it a go again and just skip to S4 or so when it is meant to be amazing. Not a patch on The Wire.
@@lawrencegough Wire is the most boring show i hv ever watched. Season 1...11 episodes in and god damn nothing had happened.Same boring characters going about doing useless shit at a pace that makes a snail look like usain bolt. I had enough halfway through 11th episode.Didnt even bother to finish it. Not a patch on wire My ASS.
"when I say run.. 'RUN'..." 😊 This is the best freaking episode of the whole series.. More than reichenbach fall.. Yes.. Come at me 😂😂😂 Thank you for the reaction.. 😊
You 'liked' my comment after so much time? 😱😱.. Thank you.. Yes.. The series is awesome.. Freaking genius the show runners and fucking benedict cumberbatch.. He is as good (or may be better) in "the imitation game".. Would love to see your reaction to some sort of scene/trailer to that.. You guys are actually pretty genius yourselves.. I never caught "I am 'sher' locked" myself.. ever.. 😊 Awesome you guys
X3 no matter the video, I try to read/like and sometimes respond to every comment I get notified for ;) (I love you guys' support and that's one of the ways I know I can show that :D) and thank you!! I know about the imitation game, but have never seen it (I'll keep it in mind perhaps for a future reaction ;) )
@@kyuujinreacts oh yeah 😊 but that's exclusively benedict and his sheer talent to be a freaking chameleon.. When talking about Sherlock.. It's all the makers and the actors together that made the wholesome feeling.. It's such a refreshing take on a popular character 😊.. BTW.. Do you guys like music? I would love to recommend you some things.. 😂😂😂
@@kyuujinreacts oh wow.. Great.. Can you react to "somebody to love - live at montreal" by Queen.. I am guessing you have heard it already.. But if by some chance you haven't.. Oh please.. Watch it.. Or Bohemian rhapsody (the official video).. 😊
I recommend watching the behind the scenes featurette they did for this episode. The way they did the scene with drugged-Sherlock and Irene in the field was so cool.
My favourite episode. The one on all my rewatches that I keep going back to. To see Sherlock's heart... only Irene Adler could have brought it out. And I actually cheered when you guessed I AM SHERLOCKED at the beginning! 👏👏
Ladies, you ain't seen nothing yet. This season is amazing. I'm American and I can't tell you how many times I've watched Sherlock (with subtitles). I have a hard time understanding Sherlock because he talks so fast sometimes. Every single time I watch the series, I find something new. I'm really hoping there will be a Season 5, but Benedict and Martin's acting careers just skyrocketed after the series. I am amazed at how you two pick up on the clues so quickly! I love your reactions.
You can thank the writers for taking their time and making such a masterpiece. This is why it takes so long for a season to be created. I love the Brits!!!!! I'm a huge fan of Sherlock Holmes. I've read the stories several times, watched all the Basil Rathbone movies, loved the Jeremy Brett version. There was no way I was going to like a modern version of this. I went to a friend's house and suggested that we watch the debut of "Sherlock" on PBS. I was so sceptical. When it was done, I was hooked.
@@Scheherasad yes, but "9 more reactions this series". With 3 reactions per episode and only 2 episodes left in the 2nd series equals 6 reactions left this series. :-)
I get the feeling that this was exactly what you girls needed. A perfect story to get you right back in to the swing of things. Honestly, this may be my favorite episode of television, ever. Up there with episode 6x10 of GoT, the season 2 finale of Black Sails, episode 6 of Watchman and Breaking Bad season 3 episode 12, "Half Measures." To me it's where this show peaked
Series 2 has the best stories in my opinion and this is the best episode they’ve done, feel like applauding every time Sherlock cracks the code, genius Moffat.
A great reaction video! I enjoyed watching your responses to this excellent show. It was really interesting to watch Sherlock & Irene in their antagonistic "dance": First, they seem to be connecting on an emotional level...then, they almost seem to revel in trying to destroy each other (Irene enjoyed humiliating Sherlock by using him to decode the email, then Sherlock enjoyed foiling her diabolical plans by figuring out her pass-code). Truly a fascinatingly dysfunctional 'relationship', perfectly depicted by both the actors and the writer/showrunner. Regarding Irene Adler's "death"...even from the very beginning, Sir Arthur Conan Doyle piqued the reader's interest in the character. In the original story "A Scandal In Bohemia", Watson introduced her (in past-tense) to the reader as "...the late Irene Adler", suggesting that there was a great deal more to her character than we ever read about in the original novellas. So from the very start, we Sherlock Holmes fans knew that Irene Adler had died... ...or did she?
no- Sherlock said "the woman" in the books too, not out of love but due to fascination and respect as she managed to outsmart him, Sherlock loves her mind, not her
I am not even here for Sherlock. Just wanted to tell you I am glad you two seem to be okay. And everything is in bright colors. I take that as a good omen for a great 2020. ;)
He is so good at her understanding of the character of sherlock. Did they go over and like the first episode their background as far as with the books and like movies
We have seen the movies and read a couple of stories a looong time ago n.n We mostly try to pay extra attention to what the show is giving us and try to put ourselves in their shoes to better understand them ;)
!!! Hey girls very important info for your brilliant reactions to Sherlock!!! ♥️🙏🏻 First of all I am very glad that you are back and secondly don’t forget to react to the full length special episode after the finale of season 3 called „The abominable bride“ it is actually one of my favourite episodes btw and I know you’ll freak out! I telll you because it is actually very important for the upcoming plot and it really brings a lot to the storyline & characters! I sadly missed that one at first and really felt I missed something when going into season 4. When I watched this episode after finishing the whole series it definitely made way more sense. AND there is also a about 7 minutes short youtube episode of Sherlock after the events of season 2! Also very very interesting for some possible upcoming questions you might have.. but no spoilers 🤫 I really hope you’ll see my comment !🤗 I wish you lots of fun on your journey!!
When we got into Sherlock, I was afraid we were gonna miss special episodes not listed here or there xD thanks for reminding us ;) we'll keep them in mind (and no doubt we'll keep freaking out, this show is just amazing like that!!)
With mentioning Moriarty Irene Adler wanted to drive in the dagger deeper into Sherlock Holmes and that was her mistake. She DID care for Sherlock Holmes. And that was her downfall. Obviously no ordinary man could make that conclusion. But Sherlock did.
This entire series is so goddamn good but when he showed up to save her, I just fucking lost it. This is probably my top five favorite series of all time if not my favorite.
This is why the actors and writers won top awards all over the world.
imagine if the passcode was SH3R-Locked 😆😆
XD!! He would've hit a strong wall there...
Kyuujin Reacts xD

The entire episode was just so well done D: that was one GREAT way to start season 2 o.o
This episode is so damn good. It's one of the top 3 of the show for me. Great reaction.
That was an incredible way to start season 2!! D:
yeah it is top 3 for me too
What are the other 2 ?
Hey guys he did look at her body 😂 how else did he get the key code to the safe it was her measurements.
XD we got that while I was editing ahah!! When she said "measurements" to Watson, I think our French brains just disconnected :P
That ending. There was revulsion - how can anyone die that way. There was sadness - one last unanswered text message. There was confusion, then elation - that familiar text message sound. Then there were goosebumps - Sherlock was right there!
My favorite episode. You have to watch it again to catch all the clues.

Gotta love the ending to this... :)

Okay, this video earned my follow. I love anybody who can appreciate romance. It just gives me goosebumps.
Thank you x3 honestly, though, it's hard not to appreciate everything from this show, the writing/acting is so good D:

Korean Air Lines Flight 007 was shot down, in real life. I think they only chose 007 for the James Bond link, but who knows.
