Aww, I couldn't click on the video thing. Not available in my country. I do hope this comes across the pond, though. Nothing I like better than Sherlock Holmes. I actually wrote a paper on how he was my role model in high school. Of course I only wrote that to make my paper stand out, but that doesn't take away from how awesome Sherlock Holmes is.

I dunno about this. I was never a fan of Holmes until Downey Jr played him. If this guy doesn't perform like Downey did, I'm out.

I quite enjoyed the pilot episode, but the second episode was way too slow for me. Haven't watched further.

As long as they leave you wanting more I'm sure it'll come back.

Oh, it was just a three-parter? Then I should probably watch the last one. I thought it would follow British tradition of 6 episodes.

Mini, I'm thinking of checking out 'Second Sight'. Have you ever seen that?

I've heard of this. Sounds interesting.

Desna, while Holmes is a great hero, I hope your paper on him as a role model mentioned you didn't want his cocaine addiction... ;)

What?  The literary character had a cocaine addiction!  That's a little known fact.

In the old Basil Rathbone/Nigel Bruce films, they were going to end one of them with "Watson, the needle."  But there was so much flack from the studio it was cut.
