The Best Modern-Day Sherlock Holmes Adaptation Had 1 Huge Advantage Over The BBC Show

While the BBC's Sherlock is a fantastic contemporary adaptation of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's detective stories, there's another modern-day adaptation that has a distinct advantage over it. Many actors have taken up the Sherlock Holmes mantle over the years, and many movie directors and TV showrunners have attempted to tackle Doyle's legendary stories about the private detective, his trusty sidekick Watson, and the dark and mysterious world of Victorian or Edwardian London. It's a timeless story that features a character deep enough to plumb for countless stories.
