Hello,

Lover’s of the written word and my fellow writers.

Okay. Why am I writing the hit Britain Television drama show. I was a fan and watched every single season and seeing Mary die crushed me and then ending left me a drift in helpless in a small boat out on the sea of shock and mild disappointment. I still gave it’s due. I was surprising and shocker but left me more then a little depressed.

I watched reviews on YouTube and got the high and lows mixture of be moans and flat out rage at the entire series. Still, my love for the characters and the stories was alive but I wanted to revisit the series in it’s previous versions and written form for several months now and I have to say….

Sherlock 2000s is the poor man’s flea mart knockoff version of Sherlock Holmes.

Okay! The interpretation of Sherlock by Benedict Cumberbatch great actor his interpretation of Sherlock was a weird comic book over the top version of Sherlock’s intellectual side with a mixture of insanity and modern psycho emotional idiot and he makes to many guesses. 

Martian Freeman’s Dr. Watson fared no better. Again another great actor but the character again is turned over the top into a thrill seeking junkie and a complete dunderhead that happens to be a man that went to medical school. 

I would rename the Sherlock series: The Mirror world of Sherlock’s Holmes insane passage into crazy town.

Examples of good Sherlock Holmes in film and Television: The Memoirs of Sherlock Holmes staring Jeremy Brett and Edward Hardwicke

The entire run of the series is pure gold in acting, representation of the original characters and above all else realistic and without the trappings of insanity and drug induced dark fantasy drama/comedy.

Examples in good Sherlock Holmes in literature:  The original Sherlock Holmes complete novels and stories. The best by far.

Holmes and Watson a study in black. A modern tale with a interesting twist that is believable and readable. Though not as good as the original again.

I leave it for you to decide. Weigh the original material against Sherlock 2000s or even against Sherlock Holmes of the 22nd Century. You be the judge. I think Sherlock 2000s will not last the passage of time well.

Best regards,
