Yes, it's a contemporary Sherlock Holmes series.

And it's actually not terrible. In fact, it's actually pretty good.

I like how each case tends to be a different spin on one or more stories.

Yeah, definitely. It's fun to catch the references to the old stories, but to have the different spin to look forward to.

It's alright, although it is really, really gay.
And it looks and feels like Doctor Who mixed with some gritty detective series.
Also, it is cruelly short.

I liked it, but the second episode was awful and Watson is painfully miscast.

I'm not saying that the second episode was good, but what's wrong with Watson? He's a great straight-man. Freeman does a good job.

lol, yeah... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-mYpOEqGBCo

But then, you could say that of the whole Sherlock Holmes, er...world? (all the universes/stories). It's two guys living together and getting into harrowing situations where they have to depend on each other, with one guy always writing admiringly of the other, blah blah. I don't mean to say that it therefore IS gay. But in the modern world, it would make sense for someone to look at the guys and consider it a possibility, y'know? So I'm glad they included it. Like, "Are you two a couple? Oh, no? Okay then."

Holmes and Watson are true to their roots; about as gay as Batman and Robin (which is to say a 5 on a scale of 1 to Richard Simmons). To be fair, Watson is actually something of a lady's man and Holmes never has any sexual interest in anybody at all, but does have a unique sense of chivalry towards women.

I'm really somewhat more distressed at Moriarty being depicted as a massive, flaming queer.

It's nothing personal against Martin Freeman, I just don't see it with the PTSD Watson they were trying to go for. Maybe he'll improve in the second series.

Hahahah. Yeah, that was disconcerting. I have a feeling, though, that it was partially an act on his part. i think he was enjoying the fun of being creepy and flamboyant in that aituation; perhaps when caught off guard he would be more, uh...normal

Pretty sure his queerness was a disguise and in nature he's just a flamboyant cad.

Yeah, different ending. The ending is actually very similar to the first ending. Both are good imo.

Whoever they got to play Moriarty was trying too hard to be John Simm's Master.

I just got sad because I realized how much better the show would be if they had just hired John Simm to continue his Master act

15832099 here, and I actually think John Simm would have been a better choice for Watson. Have you seen Life on Mars?

Life on Mars was great, but his turn on Doctor Who was literally one of the best performances I have ever seen anyone make on a television program.

Just because.

If Simm ever does play the Master again he should totally have a beard to contrast with Matt Smith.
