However, if theres an award for Making The Expected Unlikeable Character Likeable, that title goes to Amanda Abbington, who played Johns girlfriend/almost fiancée, Mary Morstan. As expected, John Watson was not happy to see him, hitting him three times in three different restaurants and while this episode gave Benedict the ability to stretch his comedic legs, it gave Martin Freeman the opportunity to contrast that with an incredible dramatic performance as he shows Johns reaction to the homecoming of Sherlock throughout the episode. This allowed Benedict Cumberbatch to try out comedic acting, which he was previously unable to do on Sherlock and he shone wonderfully. The confusing factor? Both Sherlock and M圜roft appeared to be more human than the robots the characters are known for being. The episode itself had many factors that may have had some fans of the show, or the original works scratching their heads.
Overall the episode was a wonderful step back into the world of Arthur Conan Doyles Sherlock, and reminded us all while we loved the show while setting us up for two more episodes of what ought to be a whirlwind.
Written by Mark Gatiss, The Empty Hearse was an episode unlike any other episode something that made it good and bad at the same time. After two years of theories, gifs, headcanons, and fanfiction, the Sherlock fandom finally got what theyve been waiting for: Season Three.
