Sherlock Ep 2

I realize I am behind the game with most of you, since our Masterpiece Mystery airs on Thursday instead of Sunday, so please, no spoilers for future episodes.


I am LOVING this new Sherlock Holmes series. The blending of old and new is just delightful. Holmes is very nearly in Victorian dress, compared to Watson's hip black leather jacket.

In last night's episode I adored Sherlock's willful obtuseness about Watson's need to get out on a date, and his sabotaging of same, although it all worked out for the best—sort of. I hope the girlfriend hangs on a bit. I didn't catch her name. Anyone? I'll be interested to see how they play Holme's sexuality as things go on.

I also love the new Watson. He's not a duplicate Holmes, but he has a lot more on the ball than the old movie Watsons. More true to the books.
