Good that Sherlock told Amelia that he knew Little Dove, though he also claims that tons of people have showed up before claiming to be children and other relatives. Moriarty fighting with his son was fun. Interesting that Dan is interested in women's suffrage and "home rule" including Australia. Amelia had a good point about aborigines vs the white colonizers. I hope Holmes's plan works and we find out where Watson and Mrs. Hudson are. Only 2 more episodes to rescue them.

Seeing Holmes work that phone like an expert was fun. He also seems to be more concerned about Amelia, and more apt to apologize to her. I like that told Dan Moriarty to stay away, to protect Amelia. Holmes has started sharing information with Bertie, and Bertie says that Amelia was born six months after the Wild West show left London. That's a lot less than Lady Violet claimed. Amelia overheard Clara's father talking to presumably Lady Violet, but then he also mentioned getting the insurance company to pay for the jewels. How can Violet force the insurance company to do anything? It's confusing. I'm glad the kidnappers didn't get away with Amelia, but I think Dan Moriarty might get in trouble for shooting that guy.

Her sister Emily accused Charlie of wanting this life in the season 1 finale. If Charlie really wanted to settle down somewhere she would go back to Atlantic City to reconnect with her sister and her niece. Or now that she's not in danger, she'd go back and take Delia's offer to work on the apple farm. Charlie wants to be on the road, and I guess to solve other mysteries like she's been doing for over a year. I just wish the mysteries weren't so uneven, and I want less farce.

So Holmes did know Amelia's mother after all. She just changed her name from Little Dove to Lucia Rojas. Lady Violet implies that Holmes at least had a crush on her intellect, and tried to get one of her inventions funded. But Amelia was born 18 months after Little Dove left England, not 9 months, so it doesn't quite add up. Why didn't he at least tell Amelia that he was friends with the mother? Also, I don't understand why Holmes was hanging out with Lady Violet at that Wild West show. Is she supposed to be one of Holmes's clients? Or maybe a source of information like Langdale Pike? We need more info. Meanwhile Amelia hides from Holmes that she met Michael Wylie/Daniel Moriarty. I think she will go meet him, but I'm not sure what she plans to tell him.

This episode was fascinating, going into dark history like the "father of gynecology" doing surgeries on enslaved women without ether, and racist science claiming that Black people were a different species. All as terrible as the Tuskegee experiment. The segregated neighborhoods full of pollution continued to wreak havoc on Black health. They still haven't tried to clean up the radiation at that port! The modern doctors learned about implicit bias in school, but with the shortage of doctors, can they make a difference? I did like seeing the midwives make a comeback.

Yes, very puzzling finale. You'd think Watson would want to question Moriarty about Reichenbach before killing him. And that "two weeks later" thing just to show Watson dating the oncologist and stuffing the box under his bed. Nothing about whether Ingrid is leaving for a new job, and that they're going to hire a new person? Like, so weird.

I didn't like it either. I guess I wasn't in the mood for a musical.

I'm sad this show is canceled. I liked it a lot more than Found.

Sad to see the show go. I did like how Dan looked excited and fatherly in his excitement over the proposal. I liked what Julianne brought to the cast this season. It was a good ensemble.

Yes I was surprised his accent was so good. So Moriarty corruptly runs the prison, huh? And he's got a son he wants to protect from the Red Thread? Is that who was following Amelia? That Birtwistle insurance guy was interesting.

Glad that Sherlock told Amelia about Watson and Mrs. Hudson being kidnapped, and he discovered there was a red thread at the murder of Amelia's mother. However I'm confused about Clara being in on her own kidnapping. Last episode she was truly terrified in the coffin. How does Charlie the coachman fit in with the Red Thread? Why did the policeman need hours to gather backup, and go in at daylight?

Anyone know who is the actor who played Mycroft? I thought he was going to be completely silent, but then he spoke up. I liked their version of the Diogenes Club. Irene wasn't too bad, though why did she keep saying the father was cremated? Sherlock's body was never found, so if she wanted to fool Watson into thinking that Sherlock was the father, why say "cremated"? I guess the real father is Godfrey Norton, her husband in the original story. But apparently he's gone too, whether dead and cremated, or lost some other way, so she's a single mom.

Yeah the finger did look long. Maybe he was showing the finger bones, plus the metacarpal bones which are inside the palm of the hand.

I think they started in the 1910s. I don't think they mentioned Exodusters.

I finally caught this show on the PBS app. Interesting that they discussed the migration to the North and West as well as migration back to the South. Also migrations from African and Caribbean countries to the US.
