Ι kept giving this show chance after chance after chance, when in the end i couldn't take it anymore and i simply dropped it. Yeah, it was that bad. But let me take it from the top.
Story 1/10
I guess it is because of my great love for sherlock holmes's traditional thought process and intresting cases, that i had high expactations from this adaptation. Unfortunately what i was met with were cases that weren't curiosity inducing at all. Sherlock mostly solves everything off screen with clues that aren't presented to the audience. In essence he pulls the answer out of his ass. Also the lack of
...
a central theme, or main plot bothered me, because the format gets repetitive after you see it two or three times in a row. Also be ready for a lot of slapstick comedy that is not funny at all and some gross fanservice.
Characters 1/10
Yeah they did them this dirty. Sherlock Holmes, in Doyle's works at least, is to me one of the most compelling fictional characters in history, which is why he stood the test of time, to end up in shitty adaptations like this. He is basically a man child, we are given no reason to like him, to dislike him, to sympathize with him or to hate him. Watson's fate was worse though, as he ended up the personalityless sidekick. He is like tasteless congee. Also he has a crush on the underage Mary Morstan, while he himself is well in his thirties, which is just plain gross. Moriarty is a sociopathic teenager apparently and Mrs. Hudson is an lgbt coded drag queen that sexually harasses people for breakfast. We love stereotypes!
Soundtrack & Artstyle 4/10
Decent but forgettable. Both.
Enjoyment 1/10
I basically forced myself to keep watching this bag of hot garbage, in hopes that it will get better. Spoiler alert. It didn't
Overall 1/10
Do yourself a favor and don't go anywhere near this bullshit. Banging you head on a wall repeatidly for four hours will be a better use of your time than watching this. Jesus Christ I hate this show.
