I just didn't buy it...
1 May 2014
Don't get me wrong, I'm enjoying the series. I just didn't buy into the idea that Holmes would be that smitten and thrown off his game by the likes of "The Woman". I absolutely could not get behind the four letter code being what it was, or the ending (seriously, that was just dumb). The writing, acting and look of the show are all, for the most part, fabulous. But the story here fell flat and I just couldn't get on board with the relationship Holmes had with a dominatrix. A naked body and some flirting and all of his common sense goes out the window? And the 4-letter code to the phone?? Are wesupposed to believe she's that smitten with Holmes? Maybe someone can explain the reasoning behind what, to me, seems like a totally lame attempt at adding some sex appeal to the show. A failed attempt at that.
