TV Sherlock

[ithildin]

I think I give up. The show just doesn't grab me, and I'm like the only person in the world who feels that way, but I live to be different, I guess :) I am a fandom failure. Too bad to, as I believe it's colouring my feelings for The Hobbit, which is not a good thing. I'm wondering if my mum would like it though. She's an actual old school Holmes fan. May have to get her the DVDs if I see them on sale.

If it's just to see if she's interested, you might be able to find season 1 of Sherlock on Netflix, if you're into that sort of thing - not sure if they're available in the US tho (I'm Canada-based).

I'm a fan of nearly all Sherlock Holmes incarnations, and I'm a bit ambivalent about Sherlock. I find it hard to like the character of Sherlock himself, as he's played as a bit of a sociopath. I much prefer a Holmes with demonstrable empathy and human emotions (even remote). Then again, Jeremy Brett is my Holmes, which I think explains everything.

(but I have to admit I like Martin Freeman's action!Watson in season 1)
