More fantasy than Sci-Fi, I think..
But I got to watch this last night and it was entirely *made* of win... and fun!

I managed to see the first episode, almost by chance since I'm NOT in the U.K.... I'm hoping that chance remains my friend. *s*

I was expecting it to be terrible, but it was'nt. Especially liked the new take on 'a three pipe problem'. Missed the 2nd episode as I was in a field at a music festival.

Watched the pilot online, it was great! I love that they got Watson right and he's not a bumbling nincompoop but actually quite intelligent and capable. And Holmes was awesome!
"Shut up." "I didn't say anything." "You were thinking. It's annoying."
And I was expecting Mycroft to be Moriarty, I just about fainted when Sherlock said "Hello, Mycroft." That was awesome!
Great show, I'll definitely watch more.

I already like him better than Downey in the role.

I loved Watson's reaction to finding out he wasn't an evil overlord criminal mastermind but rather 'one of the good guys'.

Almost anyone would have been better than Downey. I'm thinking Brent Spiner........

Sherlock Holmes in modern London. This is a definite must-see for me.
