About Sherlock
BBC's Sherlock ran thirteen episodes across four series plus specials from 2010 to 2017, updating Holmes to modern London. Series 1 introduces Cumberbatch's Holmes and Freeman's Watson, series 2 ends with the Reichenbach Fall, and series 3 brings Holmes back from the dead.
The Abominable Bride special from January 2016 drops the pair into Victorian London as a mind-palace experiment, then series 4 closes with the Euros reveal. The mini-episode Many Happy Returns bridges series 2 and 3, and no fifth series has been commissioned despite years of cast hints.
Good to know
Watch in broadcast order with no skipping, since Moriarty and Mary arcs pay off across series. Place Many Happy Returns after series 2 and The Abominable Bride after series 3 for the cleanest flow. The show is complete as it stands, and the finale divides fans, so treat series 4 as an ending rather than a cliffhanger while reunion talk stays talk.
