December 11th 2016’s Episode

When it gets to December, there are certain Christmas movies and Christmas specials that I watch. I typically roll between certain options and I get through them all over time. Since the Christmas season started, I have watched Celtic Woman: A Christmas Celebration, How the Grinch Stole Christmas (both versions, although I prefer only watching the movie version), The Muppets Christmas Carol, The Smurfs Christmas special, ‘Tis the Season to be Smurfy, The Tangerine Bear, Celtic Woman: Home for Christmas, and a Christmas home video that I like. That’s not all that I plan to watch, but I can mention more of them, that I haven’t actually gotten to watch yet.

Why is the 10/9 Central timeslot on CBS such a terrible one to be at? Well, I’m going to list a bunch of shows that aired then and you can tell me what link other than that timeslot that they have in common. Here are the shows: Without a Trace, The Unit, CSI: Miami, NYC: 22, The Mentalist, Unforgettable, Reckless, CSI, Battle Creek, CSI: Cyber, and Braindead. If you don’t know the link, well, you’ll find out later. I do have a blog about CSI: Cyber which is now, basically, just updating people on what the cast of the show is doing now.


This blog was planned on being updated on alternating Sundays with another blog. Well, I won’t have to update another blog on Sundays after all as there was no new episode of this show on December 4th and I didn’t have any of the old episodes of this show ready to be published yet. I have three old episodes to blog about at this point and could have more in the future. We’ll see what will happen with that.

I’m glad that I will be able to not only watch this live, but I will be able to blog about it later today instead of having to wait until next week Sunday. As soon as Thursdays are open again, this blog will be moved there again. If there is another new episode still this year, I’ll probably post about it live as well. I do have one, older episode to post about so you will probably see that soon.

Today’s episode is brought to you by no delay. We begin with Sherlock coming up with yet another rude way of waking up Watson. You know, this could be part of a drinking game if you wanted to do something like that. They are taking to the case of someone that they both know. Also, who is the new cast member? Why don't I see this name that often?

The second act is when Sherlock and Watson learn more about the case. The person they are talking to thinks that the case is open and shut. While that might happen in real life, it never happens in television. They have to fill out a whole hour. Watson is convinced that the suspect is innocent. He left where he lived and forgot his phone. Sherlock talks to some of the people the suspect hanged out with. Watson finds a person that they are looking for. Names, Adam! What are their names? Sherlock and Watson both talk to the suspect in question. What is SPK anyways? I think that Shinwell is the name of the main person relevant to the case.

The third act is when Shinwell thinks that he was sold out by the cop. The victim is Ricky. They think that an ex-gang member might be the main suspect to look for. Shinwell and Sherlock go on a stakeout. They both look in a person’s house for evidence relating to the crime. Why does the woman that first appeared at the crime scene look so familiar? They talk to a therapist who might be the same actress who plays the cleaner person on The Blacklist. (Blacklist fans: you looking forward to the spin-off next year?) Someone became an informant in order to avoid a drug charge.

The fourth act has more with the case being looked into. I don’t fully understand what is going on and missed some of what happened. Shinwell talks some about what happened to some other person. Also, can TV and movies have some more non-black people in gangs? Surely white people can be gangsters, right? Not that I recommend that anyone become a gangster. Watson confronts the black cop from earlier with her theory as to what happened. While they are on the phone later, this agent, named Whitlock, kills himself. What?

The fifth act has Sherlock and Watson talking to Shinwell about what to do after Whitlock died. Shinwell wants to make the most of his time left before he goes back to jail. Sherlock talks to Marcus about the case in order to help more with it. Sherlock is about to clear Shinwell of any blame by giving him another second chance. A second second chance, according to Sherlock.


On the next Elementary, someone stole Watson’s identity. That’s pretty much the gist of what I got from the promo. I didn’t really know what else there is to say. Should I ever post a review of the BBC show Sherlock in this blog? I would review it on my TV blog, but I normally just stick to network TV as I can’t watch much else and I’m not sure what other BBC shows I could review with it besides Doctor Who. There have to be others I might have seen, right? Oh, well. It doesn’t matter much anyways. For now, this is Adam Decker, signing off.
