.. now about the second one …
Great news that "Sherlock" will be back for a series 3. Not so nice news that the word was given by Stephen Moffat as the final (third) episode of series 2 concluded … in the UK.
Which leads to the inevitable question of when the hell is it going to air in the US?
Answer (via http://www.anglotopia.net/british-entertainment/brit-tv/sherlock-series-3-confirmed-us-airdates-for-series-2-set/): On PBS Masterpiece Theater on 6, 13, and 20 May 2012.
Argh. What are they doing, walking the freaking episodes over? #ddtb

Good news indeed. Now we just have to get through the interminable wait until the next season rolls around.

BBC ‘Sherlock’ Confirmed For Third Season
The second season of the BBC incarnation of Sherlock Holmes, simply titled Sherlock , premiered not long ago and has already finished its run. Seasons of the show are only three episodes each, though each 90-minute episode is essentially as good as a standalone Sherlock Holmes film, and the series as a whole is infinitely superior to the Warner Bros. films starring Robert Downey, Jr. and Jude Law. (Though, to be fair, the aims of the two approaches are quite different.)
If you’re bummed that …

Well, it is PBS. They ignore the internet, maybe? Unlike BBC-A which finally got on the clue train and started running Dr. Who (especially the Christmas episodes) as close to home airtime as possible.
Looking forward to this and I know the DVD will be the better way to re-view it (I noticed the PBS airing had “muddy” audio during the micro-season, sound was better on the DVD).
@Fred – Yeah. I just HATE THE WAITING for my new favorite TV show. #firstworldproblem
