Recently my sister convinced me to watch a few episodes of BBC’s Sherlock TV show. I was very surprised at how much I liked it! The first episode is very intriguing, and watching Sherlock deduce people––he can look at a person, analyze them, and spout off facts about them in a matter of seconds–– is so cool. I really like Sherlock’s character, the way he is so introverted and intelligent. He’s such a genius that he rarely shows emotion. So it’s heartbreaking at times to see how, despite his smarts, he has no one who cares about him, up until he meets his friend John. I also love how Sherlock plays violin, which I thought was an interesting quirk to his character. John Watson is incredible, and I love how kind he is to Sherlock.
I will warn you
this is a TV show for teens and adults.
There are quite a few references to gay people in the first episode, and
Sherlock mentions one of the detectives had cheated on his wife. As far as language goes, there are a few
words, but not a very large amount. There
is some violence, but not a lot of it is shown.
However, with Sherlock being a detective, he investigates various
suicides and murders of innocent, common people, which can be a little
frightening.
The acting is very good, and the plot lines
are brilliant. It is a very suspenseful
and exciting show, and I enjoyed it!My rating: 8 out of 10
