The texts seemed very much what a modern Holmes would do, a nice update to the telegrams in the canon. (Loved the "Come if convenient." "If inconvenient, come anyway." texts.)
And Freeman was indeed delightful. I was a bit worried about his casting--he's always seemed a bit lightweight to me before--but he was a perfect foil to Cumberbatch, and an interesting character in his own right.
They definitely seemed to be throwing down the gauntlet for slash fans to pick up, god bless 'em. And I'm sure there's a slash comm, and I'll be joining it as soon as I get back from vacation. *g*
