Just thought I would share: TJLC is real and season 4 proves it.
Weāve been talking about TJLC for almost three years now, but somehow the very Gay and Fucky special, The Abominable BrideĀ was not enough to pique viewersā interests to make more than a tiny blip. In fact, searches for TJLC and related terms only begins to really rise in July when they released the first official trailer, and then in November, when they started to promote the new season by releasing soundtrack titles, announcing an air date, and putting out that flooded 221B picture.
Weāve literally been doing the same thing for three years, but somehow it never became a popular search term (first and second most popular related terms are shown in yellow and blue) until the start of the season 4 hype buildup.
What really gets me is that this graph peaks the day after The Six Thatchers airs. I donāt really understand how Google does their graphs as Iām not that familiar with statistics, but from what I can see, the charts are shown relative to the highest amount of searches - meaning that from January 1st to January 2nd, searches for TJLCĀ basically tripled. O v e r n i g h t.
Hereās another chart that shows that searches forĀ ājohnlockā are generally independent from searches forĀ ātjlcā:
Now I know we have done no more this season than we have other seasons. (except for maybe the sheer amount of meta we accumulated in the first week of the year, but Iām talking about putting ourselves out there and making our cause publicly known.)Ā
We analysed and speculated just like we did for every other season. Searches for ājohnlockā are relatively consistent with what theyāve been in the past (both are up at the 100 mark). Which means there must be something different about this season. Something thatās getting closer to the surface, becoming more visible. Visible enough for viewers to start investigating and considering itās legitimacy........
