New Sherlock Teaser for "The Abominable Bride" Shows Watson's

It slowed new installments of the Beeb's Sir Arthur Conan Doyle update to a crawl, dependent on the increasingly busy schedules of its Holmes and Watson.

"Now we're doing one that's in the authentic setting - It affects everything. We haven't disappointed fans in the past it seems, so hopefully this won't". He can haunt Holmes during an investigation, knowing that he is the most feared opponent he has potentially ever faced and potentially will. It creates a further disconnect between Sherlock and the real world, which would make his duties as crime-solver all the more hard.

Paranormal Survivor (9 p.m., Destination America) - In the Season 2 premiere, a man is assaulted by the spirits of former owners after he takes over an old farm.

The game will be afoot tomorrow (iconic deerstalker hat and all) as Sherlock: The Abominable Bride rings out the New Year on the BBC in the United Kingdom, and on PBS on this side of the pond.
