This is probably my favorite Sherlock episode, it had a Hannibal Season 2 feel with all the visuals and "what is going on" vibe, we can't really fully understand what is happening but guess until the show reveals it and is amazing.

I have to admit I'm not a Sherlock fan, I love the show productions and the actor are great but the story/writing most of the time felt weird and force, this time might not be that different but definitely took the show to a new place.

I found the previous episode kind of regular but now I realize it was necessary to set everything on the table and this one take full exploits of those elements.

I can't understand why people keep watching this show (besides visual quality) after this season, the magic that started fading away in the past seasons is now fully gone, sadly not even "The Door" (one of the best things in this show and a glimpse of what the show used to be, probably because it was all the author's plan from the beginning) can keep alive this show. All the plots ended in the most boring predictable way, so sad considering the more interesting other possibilities that a lot of fans imagined, after seasons of stretching them at the end everything felt rushed and unrewarding. Somehow they also manage to confuse the viewers with time jumps from one place to another using the same characters without physical changes and lot of distance covered in just one cut scene: one moment someone was in the Iron Islands the next one they were at Slaver's Bay, the next one in Dorne and the next sailing somewhere else.
