Sherlock Holmes (Benedict Cumberbatch), the most brilliant intellect of his generation, has a unique analytical brain unlike anyone else's, and staves off the ever-present threat of boredom by solving crimes, the more intricate and baffling the better.

Sherlock (2010) 

English 1: No shit. Great casting, I was really surprised by Martin Freeman. Cutting Brit humor, great one-liners and all that in an excellent detective story. The setting in the present is no problem, in fact it breathes fresh air into Doyle’s classic story. 2: Not as snappy as the first episode, but thanks to cyphers, codes and the exotic from China it’s still really engrossing. 3: A whirlwind of cases and the final confrontation with M are a great ending to the first three episodes. Pleased to see Golem and Czech curiosities. I’m intrigued to see what comes next. ()
