It's strange - I get very emotional about the conclusion of Reichenbach Fall, but I still think you're absolutely right on with this criticism. I couldn't quite organize my vague dissatisfaction into words, but you've expressed it very clearly here.
It feels almost as if there were a missing series, one set during that summer between Great Game and the Irene Adler case - three more episodes that would have shown us the evolution of that relationship. I can't help but wonder if the reason this doesn't bother me as much as it should is because I've read that 'missing series' over and over again in unholy crap tons of Sherlock fan fiction.
