Ten Things I loved about "A Scandal in Belgravia"

(in no particular order)

NOTE: if you watch this on Netflix- it skips to the title sequence and the ending of the pool scene with Moriarity!!!!!!  I almost freaked out!  Where was "Staying Alive"?  I knew to expect it because I saw it on DVD but if you don't rewind it by yourself you will miss it and you don't want to miss it!

1. We see the first appearance of the deerstalker cap!

2. Sherlock (Benedict Cumberbatch!) in only a sheet at Buckingham Palace.

3. The Boomerang Mystery- "Brainy is the new sexy."

4. Naked Irene Adler- The Woman

5. Christmas with Sherlock Holmes- this episode has the best violin solos especially Irene's theme.  I really want to know what Molly bought for Sherlock!  "You always say such horrible things. Every time. Always."  Dr. Watson's Christmas sweater is adorable.

6.  The fight scenes with the Americans- just how many times did he fall out the window, it was ll just a blur.
7. All the passwords Sherlock tries on Irene Adler's phone- SHERlocked: "Everything I said- it's not real. I was just playing the game." -Irene Adler "I know. And this is just losing." -Sherlock

8. The plane full of dead people- mentioning the bombing of Coventry which Cumberbatch also stars in the movie The Imitation Game which is also about codes.

9. Dr. Watson's blog takes off- I also discovered it HERE

10. Sherlock saves Irene Adler's life.
