BBC's "Sherlock"

CollinsE90 · 01-25-2012, 12:11 PM

Just thought I would let everyone know BBC has a relatively new show called "Sherlock". It's the exact synopsis as the books and movies, but set today in London. So basically the old Sherlock, with cell phones and cars. Still has the original theme and music, but new actors and better plots.

Each episode is an hour and a half long, so essentially a movie every episode.

I can honestly say the first episode was better the both American movies as far as plot, BBC does a great job with the writing and the filming is nice too.

That's a great show, I watched it over the Christmas break, Season 2 should be coming soon.

Since you liked Sherlock you should also try Luther, Season 1 is on Netflix.

We have the first 3 episodes of season 2 here, and dear god some crazy stuff goes down.

I watched season 1, episode 1 last night on Netlfix streaming.

It was pretty good and I enjoyed it.

I agree, BBC did a really good job, the dialogue and screenplay were great.

ice films have all of the episodes. side reel might also have some....

anyway, i mentioned luther and sherlock a few times in off-topic before but it didnt seem like people noticed it. if you enjoy these shows check out "strike back". another superb british show. they have 2 series and a 3rd one i believe is coming out this year.

I've seen this show since it came out. It's absolutely fantastic. I recommend it to anyone who likes a good Mystery.

My favorite episode so far is Season 2, Ep 1. Think it's named, "The Woman".

thread revival... watched the first episode last night and loved it. I agree that it's better than both American movies.

For a contrasting view I think it's pure muck. Ah well there you go !!

Lucy Liu is playing the role of Watson in the American adaptation of Sherlock.. " Elementary"
This will take place in NYC. and Sherlock will be played by Eli Stone.

I watch both Seasons of BBC's Sherlock and certainly think the US version will be absolutely horrible.

rdub315 · 03-05-2012, 01:21 PM

won't watch it if it has Lucy Liu anywhere in it. can't stand her. this will be terrible.
