'Sherlock' Season 4 has a premiere date and it's as early as 2017 will allow
No, seriously, what's earlier than the first day of the year? BBC announced via Facebook today that Sherlock will return after three years on January 1, 2017.
"The Six Thatchers" will be the first of three episodes including "The Dying Detective" and a third, unnamed episode.
Star Benedict Cumberbatch said earlier this month that the latest season "feels like the end of an era."
