Greetings. I was watching Reichenbach Fall last night and I noticed that Moriarty and Magnussen both use the term “pressure point.” Also, when Sherlock and Moriarty are on the St. Barts roof, Moriarty says that he loves newspapers. Moriarty and Magnussen connection? Brothers from another mother? Moriarty owns Magnussen? Am I reaching? lol. What do you think? Thanks and take care. :-)

Ohhhhh. No, you might not be. That’s exactly the sort of clue the writers like to drop. Hard to say for sure, but you might have something there…!

There’s this interview (theguardian[.]com/tv-and-radio/2012/jan/20/steven-moffat-sherlock-doctor-who) where Moffat says Sherlock wouldn’t be living with a man if he thought they were interesting, but I don’t know if I buy that. Even if Sherlock is gay, why couldn’t he have a male flatmate? But this closest mention of “not gay” that I can think of, and it seems that in other interviews Moffat and the rest of the producers/writers/cast are much more vague about/less labeling of the relationship…

Moffat deliberately lies, deflects, and snows the issue whenever he can. It’s his way of keeping spoilers from leaking; that way, even if you hear the truth, you can’t be…

I think there is one or two steps further needed. There needs to be a romantic demonstration. The “i love you’s” can be too easily played off as friendship. I think there needs to be that romantic confirmation and then a physical one. Even if the physical confirmation is a one off comment about sex, or just them holding hand, or as you say a simple kiss. But I agree…I think we’ve been seeing it. they just actually need to be able to be together without the barrier *Mary*

Yes, if they really do want to confirm a homosexual relationship, then they have to make the gesture. Not doing so is just a way of hiding behind the “Well,…

the only way this could be queer baiting is if they decided to completely turn around and throw them both into complete heterosexuality with relationships and the whole 9 straight yards. And i do not see that happening with either of them to be honest. then and only then would all this have been queerbaiting.

Depends on your definition of queerbaiting. Some people use the term to indicate active mockery of the concept of queer relationships. Playing it for laughs, like, “Haha, isn’t this funny…

Sherlock should have just really killed himself. Or at least not come back. Too bad the show is about him. We’ll never get rid of him. And he’ll just keep making John miserable in this version. Hopefully John will grow the balls to get rid of him for good.

Ouch. Though I suppose if you feel that way, you’re not the only one. Have you checked out AbundantlyQueer’s rewrite? Um…Yeah, “Sign of the Fire,” it’s called. She basically decided…
