Sherlock Series Three Delayed

Series three of Sherlock is coming. That was never in no doubt. Just set your watches back. Preferably to the end of next year or for us fat Americans early 2014; possibly even later depending on when the BBC gets first dibs.
Entertainment Weekly reports the third run of the acclaimed series has pushed its start-date back from January to March 2013. Stars Benedict Cumberbatch and Martin Freeman are becoming big deals beyond UK television sets. Freeman headlining Peter Jackson's Hobbit trilogy and Cumberbatch the villain in Star Trek Into Darkness.
So the production has to fit around their schedule accordingly. I don't want to hear anyone complain. Were it not for the BBC commissioning the second and third series at the same time, Sherlock might have ceased after its initial run. Given its stars' higher profile endeavors, Mark Gatiss and Steven Moffat must know series three is it. As long as it gets a proper exit, that's fine.
