SHERLOCK

SHERLOCK “ Aficionados know about SHERLOCK, I suppose, but in case ... . “ Sherlock is a British television series that presents a contemporary update of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's Sherlock Holmes detective stories. It was created by Steven Moffat and Mark Gatiss, and stars Benedict Cumberbatch as Sherlock Holmes and Martin Freeman as Doctor John Watson. After an unbroadcast pilot in 2009, the first series of three 90-minute episodes was transmitted on BBC One and BBC HD in July and August 2010, with a second series of three episodes first broadcast in January 2012. A third series has been commissioned and will reportedly air in 2013. The series has been sold to over 180 territories. [Wiki] ” I watched the first one last night [A Study in Pink] and found it captivating.   One entertainment is that the relationship (ahem) betwixt Holmes and Watson is broached in a brilliant repartee while the two dine for the first time  (Watson:  Do you have a girlfriend?  Holmes, That's not my style ...  Watson:  ...).   The bad news (for me) is only two remain on NetFlix, and even if the 2012 series were available it would only be five.  I likes me dalliances by the gross. But WAIT! You can watch season two online! You're welcome ”
