In my opinion I would have done the 3rd esp later next week once we were done talking about this esp. I I saw the second episode of the season but what I was getting confused about was why didn't you post a third episode like on Wednesday – Thursday of this week instead Saturday after this past week. But it fine either way.  I have been pondering your suggestion and something occurred to me. Did you think I posted the episode BEFORE it aired? I posted it the Saturday AFTER it aired. Yes I thought you did. |

Yes, I watched the episode. Sherlock was hired to determine if a computer had become an Artificial Intelligence with the ability to make decisions outside of its programming. That would be thrilling to the programming groups but terrifying for people who saw The Matrix and I-Robot. The inventor of the computer program and his assistant were pretty sure the program had advanced beyond its programming when it requested they connect it to the internet. This was an interesting job worthy of Sherlock's intellect so he did not hesitate to accept it and even said he would do it for free. I guess the doll being the "face" of the program was amusing, but Sherlock did not seem amused to talk to it. During their first session, Sherlock could not determine one way or the other. When he returned with Plan B, the program kept saying it did not understand the question and asked for more information. After Sherlock received that response for the thousandth time, his OCD kicked in and he could not tear himself away from the machine. Kitty became worried and called Joan. Joan observed him and told Kitty to not worry until Sherlock started to destroy things. It was certainly a surprise when the programmer was found dead near the machine and flashing images were on the screen. The images initiated a seizure that caused the death. There was speculation that the program killed the man because he would not connect it to the internet. That led to a more formal investigation in Sherlock's usual style. It was clearly shown that there are groups of people who are so convinced that AI's will eliminate the human race that one of them orchestrated the entire scheme to bring the world's attention to the danger. In their opinion, the death of the programmer was justified because it would save a billion people. The ending was extremely interesting...Sherlock was interacting with the doll and asking her questions that revealed his personal issues and uncertainties. ![]() |

I did not talk about Joan's relationship. Andrew told Joan that after Sherlock put his name on an e-mail chain, he received a proposition within 36 hours. She was thrilled for him until he said the location was Copenhagen. Joan confronted Sherlock and accused him of interfering because he was jealous of anyone taking her time away from him. Sherlock denied it. Later, he said he liked Andrew and the fact that Andrew understood his relationship with Joan; therefore, he would never interfere with it. I was very surprised when Joan told Andrew she wanted to fly to Copenhagen with him. He looked stunned and I wondered if it was possible he already had a travelling companion.  Men have been known to do that.  |

I really don't know if Joan relationship will last with the way Sherlock is and he has to have Joan around 200% of the time.

I agree with you. When Sherlock learns Joan wants to fly to Copenhagen, he will be upset.

I majored in computer science in college, so I have some idea of what was taking place in this episode. However, the programming languages I learned were like a Model T and the program shown on the screen was like a Toyota Prius. I never even heard of the Internet when I was in college, though it existed. Not that this mattered to this particular murder.
The concept of a Turing machine was one covered in at least one of my classes.
I was never able to convince anyone to give me a job programming computers, and the technology changed so much in the years that followed that I have even less understanding of how to use a computer than most kids today. So much for my college education. Realy, other students in the major learned so much more than I did. I'm about in the same position as that philosophy student.
Someone should recommend this episode to Aeryn. I liked how someone asked if that was supposed to be music. No, I don't think so. And it was even worse when I had to watch the end of the episode online at the library, where I have stereo and headphones. My sound quality at home is pretty bad, for which I am grateful sometimes.
At least Holmes and Watson were working together in a way that resembled the first two seasons. I'd still like to see Kitty be the next victim.

I believe Sherlock too. The show would not be as amusing or emotionally dramatic without Joan. She needs to stay.

I agree with you. When Sherlock learns Joan wants to fly to Copenhagen, he will be upset. But it is Sherlock who gave up on Joan and went to London for 6-7-8 months so he has no right to be mad at her. |

I am not disagreeing with you, but when Joan accused Sherlock of that, he said he went because he was afraid he would use the drug he had hidden in the book. He felt the challenge would distract him.

That a load of crap and he knows it. |

I haven't seen it yet, but maybe tonight.
That's a lot of trouble to go through to keep from being tempted by a drug. Maybe he missed home.

“Rip Off” (11/27/14) The owner of a small postal store is murdered. Capt. Gregson hits a fellow officer, putting his career at risk.
Sherlock seemed unconcerned when he mentioned Joan was in Copenhagen. Kitty helped with the case but she seemed displeased with the tasks Sherlock assigned to her, like testing the turtle’s responses.
I did not know Captain Gregson had a daughter on the police force so it seemed contrived to introduce her as having an abuse issue. That was tailor-made for Kitty to become involved and play a role that ingratiated her with the Captain. I hope Kitty’s involvement does not mean we will continue to see less of Joan.
COTW: Sherlock determined a series of murders involved illegal diamond transactions.
I just saw a promo for next episode and it looks as if Sherlock and Joan are still in trouble for the time Bell was shot. I thought that was resolved, but the promo did say “new episode”.

Anyway, do you think the Captain hitting someone was a weak attempt to give Kitty a purpose? |

I didn't like the captain being in trouble, and I want Kitty to be the next victim and Joan to be back working with Sherlock.
I saw a classic SNL episode where an outrageous morning host had a character whose name I'm not allowed to say here. Just subtract one letter and substitute a new letter and you'll get the idea. And he said, "Elementary, my (rhymes with dear) Watson".

The relationship between Sherlock and Watson is almost back where it should be but Kitty is still a problem.
I've already forgotten what happened in the episode, except Watson wore a tank top.

What is wrong with Kitty? |

Post by AntiArbitrator on Dec 9, 2014 0:25:26 GMT -5
I had to try hard to remember what the case was about. While investigating a robbery, Kitty found the body of a security guard in a bin or drawer. When Sherlock arrived, he was proud that Kitty found the body. Then Sherlock deduced that the only thing stolen was a map.
Sherlock kept sending Kitty on a bunch of errands, some of which were not important. Joan advised Kitty to not let Sherlock keep her from a social life. Joan also talked to Sherlock about monopolizing Kitty's time. Although Sherlock has always acted as if he is cold and unemotional, he is protective and rather possessive of the ladies who work with him. He was keeping Kitty busy so that she would not have time to become involved with a guy she met. I liked the scene where he admitted that and Kitty admitted she knew what he was doing. She said it made her feel good that he cared about her and that she was also afraid to get involved with anyone.
I am glad that Joan has agreed to spend more time working on cases with Sherlock.

During the hiatus between seasons was it supposed to write in the Joan became a professional PI for the Police and she now has her PI license?

They probably talked about that in the first episode after the break but I don't remember what they said.
