I cannot live without brainwork. What else is there to live for? Stand at the window there. Was there ever such a dreary, dismal, unprofitable world? See how the yellow fog swirls down the street and drifts across the dun-coloured houses. What could be more hopelessly prosaic and material? What is the use of having powers, Doctor, when one has no field upon which to exert them?

This:

And there was another one on tumblr about why Sherlock takes the completely trivial case in Minsk immediately after TBB - because he was jealous. 

Let us take a closer look: Two guys living together. Guy One gets himself a girlfriend. Guy Two bombs the date but the relationship somehow survives his atttempts at sabotage and a kidnapping by a mad Chinese Circus director so Guy Two leaves for Belarus. After Guy Two's return he aggressively shoots the wall and starts a quarrel with Guy One who then walks out the flat to sleep chastely on his girlfriend's sofa while Guy Two runs to the window to watch him walking away. The next morning Guy One learns from the news that his flat has been bombed and head over heels runs back to Guy One.

Now this is not even subtle anymore, Sherlockology. They show John's face parallel to "everyone he loves" and "everything he holds dear."

But, Harriet, this is said by Mycroft, isn't it?
And furthermore what strikes me is that the Mary story arc is hardly visualized, although that's almost more important than CAM on the whole and overall narrating arc.

Re: The comprehensive Johnlock guide (Johnlockers only)

Mary does not play an important part in any of the videos. She is hardly more than a by-stander which is really interesting because Sherlockology usually do not voice opinions and even their reviews are neutral with regard to ships. The bigger the surprise about these "trailers".

Yes, but it's interesting that you see JOHN's face with these words.

Mary: Yes, that stroke me as well. She's almost invisible here.

Re: The comprehensive Johnlock guide (Johnlockers only)

We see John's face at all the important points. So it does not really matter if something is said by Magnussen or Mycroft as long as it refers to Sherlock (which it does every time) and shows the words in connection with John's face. And I think we all agree that he killed Magnussen for John and not for Mary.

Re: The comprehensive Johnlock guide (Johnlockers only)

Well, I guess it's a show about a detective and his blogger after all. 
Sherlock's "I'd be lost without my blogger" is true an so many levels... and his blogger would be lost (and was lost) without him, too.

If by "blogger" you mean "one true love."
