Hmm, so it does. Now that he's looking the part of a no-longer-juvenile Sherlock, maybe it's time for Messrs. Moffat and Gatiss to present him and Martin Freeman with some motivation (which is to say, story ideas) to do more Sherlock.

A new Sherlock Holmes series based on the Young Sherlock Holmes book series by Andrew Lane is currently in production to be directed by Guy Ritchie (Robert Downey Jr Sherlock Holmes films) and streamed on Amazon Prime. Judging from the synopsis, it seems to be an adaptation of Stone Cold, the seventh book in the Andrew Lane series. https://variety.com/2024/tv/news/young-sherlock-holmes-series-amazon-hero-fiennes-tiffin-guy-ritchie-1236018539/ https://tellyvisions.org/article/young-sherlocks-cast-family-affair https://www.bristolworld.com/arts-and-culture/film-and-tv/photos-as-filming-took-place-in-bristol-for-young-sherlock-4786761

Hello, Sherlock fan 223 -- and welcome to Sherlock Forum! If you've posted something, but then you don't see your post, don't worry. It's just that any new member's first few posts aren't visible until they've been approved by a staff member, which may take anywhere from a few minutes to a day or two. So there's no need to re-post. If your post still hasn't shown up after a couple of days, click the Contact Us link at the bottom of any page, and let us know what's going on. I like all of them (in some cases, it's "love to hate," of course), but my favorite has generally been John Watson. Well, Sherlock isn't an ordinary person, that's for sure! Various people have various theories, so I'm interested to know why you think he may have adhd or schizophrenia.

Thanks, J.P. -- I agree, nothing to hyperventilate about just yet. But it's a good sign that they (cast AND crew) keep making these noises, that nobody's saying it's over. They kinda need to see a story outline or three, Sue -- maybe a judiciously timed hint to your hubby would help? As that article mentioned, Mark Gatiss has talked about maybe doing a movie. While it'd be a kick to see Sherlock on the big screen, I suspect it just wouldn't be the same. They're used to doing it for the small screen, and we're used to seeing it there. Some things just don't translate well, and I'd hate to have proof that Sherlock is one of them. (Even worse, one failure would presumably kill the franchise.)

We shouldn't start to hyperventilate, but… https://deadline.com/2024/10/sherlock-has-future-sue-vertue-mark-gatiss-film-benedict-cumberbatch-1236104260/

Hello everyone, my name is Sophie. I became a Sherlock fan relatively recently, when my English teacher showed the class two episodes of Sherlock, one before Christmas and one before the summer holidays. She first showed us A Study In Pink and I watched The Blind Banker soon after, but with Christmas I forgot. However, she showed us The Hounds of Baskerville and the next day I went on music tour. Spending 25+ hours on a coach combined over five days, and we were allowed our phones. I finished Sherlock within 3 or 4 days and on the way back rewatched up to The Hounds of Baskerville with a friend (well more like 4-5 of them). And the obsession fully started. After we'd watched the series, the class group chat became Sherlock related for a day, but I was the only one continuing and did get teased over that. (People were shipping me with Sherlock, and I'm aromantic so that's a problem etc.) But this didn't stop me and now I check the news every day for news of Series 5, I listen to conspiracies (not part of them, just find it interesting) and read probably too much fanfiction. I also write some. I have had obsessions in the past, and it is true that I can catergorise my life by obsessions - Harry Potter from the age of 7 to 10, Minecraft and HP from 10 to 13 and Sherlock currently. And I know 3 people who also watch, and they like it too, but idk if they are obsessed to the same level as I am. I DRINK COFFEE LIKE SHERLOCK for goodness sake! And I pretty much breathe oxygen and Sherlock at this point. I rewatch episodes to the point of insanity, I can quote whole scenes, and then I realise it's only been EIGHT TO NINE WEEKS since I got into the fandom. It genuinely feels like years. I wish I had known about Sherlock sooner (I am only 13) and my mum just casually mentioned that she used to watch it when she knows that's the sort of content I love but oh well. I dream of Series 5, I dream of Johnlock and I want to know that more people who love Sherlock still exist. Please talk to me now if convenient. If not convenient, talk to me anyway. And yes, it could be dangerous. I am very passionate about my fandoms. Fandom is killing me From Sophie

Hi there, Faline, and welcome to Sherlock Forum! You've come to the right place! The forum isn't nearly as lively as it was when there were new episodes every year or two, so you may need to be a bit patient while waiting for replies to your posts. But please feel free to reply to any threads that interest you and/or to create new threads. Not at all! Some of us do, some of us don't, and some are rather casual shippers. I'm partial to Molly Hooper / Greg Lestrade, but don't mind if other people are not. Welcome to the club! Some people loved all the episodes, but many of us became more and more disappointed as the show went on (sometimes to the point that they refused to watch the rest of the episodes). I personally loved series 1 and 2, but was less and less enthusiastic about the rest (though I did think The Abominable Bride was pretty cool). My theory is that the show's creators/producers/writers (Steven Moffat and Mark "Mycroft" Gatiss) tend to get bored after doing the same thing for a while, so they made the show more "interesting" and then went on to other things. However they were both huge Holmes fans as boys, so I suspect they'll be back eventually, and they've said that their Sherlock and John would become closer to Arthur Conan Doyle's original characters as they age. You're doing fine. But if you have any questions, feel free to post them (either on this thread or in the Help & Assistance subforum).
