Re: Series 4 in German - finally!

I wouldn't put any weight on it. Someone just liked it this way. People translating aren't even dedicated fans, they wouldn't make all the mistakes if they were.

Re: Series 4 in German - finally!

You do not have to be a fan of something to do your job well. And in S4 they did their job well, better than in the others series. I found only one bad mistake so far - translating chips with Chips instead of Pommes or Fritten. But as for the rest they did a very good job. I will never get accustomed to the voices but apart from that (and too many "Sie") I do not have much to complain about. 

As for the above sentence - they could have gone for another verb like but they did not. And I like the choice. One of several occasions in which Mary and Sherlock are put on the same level with regard to John.
