My, that looks terrible! I'll never understand why these producers of the eletronic theatre must always take wonderful works of literature and turn them upon their heads.

I don't think that series will be good at all...


Bit of background on this, CBS contacted the writers of 'Sherlock' and asked if they could do an American version of the show. The writers said no, so CBS said 'well screw you, Sherlock Holmes is public domain so we can do it without you.'

Invoke not reason. In the end it is too small a deity.

Can you all hear that noise? The sound of CBS scraping the bottom of the barrel.....

I'm not trying to change the direction of this topic, but for anyone who's interested I attempted a review of the book mentioned earlier.

Any input is very welcome. Plus feel free to delete if there is a review already in existence for this book, I did look before hand.

They don't know what they are doing! They are destroying the character.
That awkward moment when "Sherlock Holmes" says: "Sometimes I hate it when I'm right". :S Holmes would NEVER say that!

T0M thanks, by the way.

I have to agree! Good example btw. No way he would say that!
