Sherlocked

Hello everyone! Welcome back to my blog! This week I will be talking about a new show I have just been introduced to called "Sherlock".

"Sherlock" is a modern take on Arthur Conan Doyle's classic book series "Sherlock Holmes". While you may be thinking: "modern adaptations of 'Sherlock Holmes' are never good," this one is. All the characters from the book that you love and hate including Dr. Watson, Mycroft, and even Moriarty, are included. They don't try to hard, and make it more like a real mystery show. The personalities are the same; Sherlock is arrogant, Dr. Watson is a war veteran who has been shot in the leg and so on and so forth.

The show stars Benedict Cumberbatch as Sherlock Holmes and Martin Freeman as Dr. John Watson. The acting is fabulous at the least. The characters pull you in and the show itself is BRILLIANTLY written. The plot lines pull you into the story and mystery makes everything better.

The show is obviously a mystery but there is no doubt that it has its funny moments, as any great show should. I would recommend this to everyone who likes a good story. I'm not a huge fan of the murder mystery genre, but I'm in love with this show. You don't need to like the genre to enjoy the show, you can love it anyway. I encourage people to give the show a shot. It may not be for everyone (what show it), but I implore you not to judge it right away.

Going along with Sherlock and Watson on their investigation is so much fun that you can't help but to try to solve the case with them, even if it's sometimes impossible for us normal human beings.

The show is on BBC/BBC America and will return in 2017. The episodes that have aired are currently on Netflix and Amazon if you would like to watch it.

Thanks for reading. Come back next week for more!
