I was trying to watch something fun on Netflix earlier today and I kept drawing blanks. Finally I came to a show called Sherlock (as in Holmes) and I pressed the play button. I'm very glad I did because it is a real joy to watch. I'm kind of a Sherlock Holmes purist and I have put off watching this series for a couple of years, but not now. Binge watching, here I come.
It's all modern Sherlock Holmes and was filmed in London itself so there is a lot of flavor in both dialogue and location. I like how they made the modern Sherlock behave in much the same way as the old one. Benedict Cumberbatch plays Holmes and he does a great job and is even a bit funnier than past Sherlocks. I enjoy how the producers film him when he thinks, by this I mean that you see words appear on items when he is observing them. At least they did in this first episode called A Study in Pink.

Basil will always be the ultimate Sherlock but Benedict is a very close second. And the Cumberbatch series is excellent. Now who was the best Watson? My vote, Jude Law
