I think he not only orchestrated the bike messenger hitting John, but he also had Molly make sure the body was taken away immediately. It was pretty suspicious that the paramedics just swooped in and loaded it on a gurney and wheeled it off before the police had come to investigate or anything. I'm sure Lestrade had a fit when he got there!

It was pretty obvious that Sherlock was going to pull some kind of switcheroo so I was watching closely for it. It was definitely Benedict (or a VERY good stunt double) during at least part of the fall, and it was definitely Benedict lying on the sidewalk just before the paramedics came. I'll be disappointed if they come back and tell us that was Moriarty's body on the sidewalk and substitute shots of Andrew Scott falling in the replay. I know we're meant to be seeing it through Watson's eyes and he might very well think he saw one man when he was actually seeing another (especially after getting knocked in the head), but it would still feel dishonest if they filmed it that way. I'm hoping Sherlock figured out some way to jump without killing himself and just faked the blood and being dead after he landed.

I feel like I didn't enjoy this season as much as the first one. But I also think I need to let it percolate for a while and come back to it. When I rewatched the first season in preparation for this one I liked it even more than I remembered. I think Sherlock gets better with age, like a fine wine. ;)
