I love Sherlock Holmes, so why is this show so shit?

>Watson is an Asian woman
>Holmes is an autistic recovering heroin addict
>Moriarty is both a woman and Irene Adler somehow
>Mycroft is some punkass bitch chef/part time brittish intelligence asset instead of Sherlocks lazy equal
>Inspector Lestrade is barely in the show because it's in New York, and when he is in the show he is a literal garbage person
>basic CSI plot 95 percent of the time with no Sherlock Holmes significance at all

Why is this show so shit?

>Sjw sherlock

y do you think

i watched the whole first season just because i like the character of sherlock holmes and jonny lee miller's take on it. it's pretty safe-edgy and reddit, much more than holmes in "Sheelock" i mean this one is made of internet memez. but even if it's just for JLM it was worth it because he is in almost every scene and it was great to have as backup for when i needed something dumb to watch.

Sherlock is a better show (flawed still) but i think i like this take on Holmes more, it's extremely entertaining watch Miller do everything, i could watch him in character watching a movie or reading a book and i bet he would make it great. that is cause it's made for tumblr yes but enjoyable anyway

The first season is way better than 2-4(partly done now)

JLM is good but he is just collecting a paycheck at this point. I don't blame them. The actors that they cast as Moriarty and Mycroft are too busy to be on the show and a 24 episode season is way too many episodes for them not fall into the weekly procedural bullshit.

lucy watson is infintely more useful than bbc's punching bag, i mean martin watson.

It sure is. They have "Anonymous" aka Everyone in their show all the time.

yeah but martin's watson is a real character played by a real actor so... also his purpose as a character is not so much to "be useful" but to be sherlock weakness and human anchor.

>>64289950
>>Moriarty is both a woman and Irene Adler somehow
and also sherlock's main love interest

I think it's surprisingly not shit but they deal way too much with muh drugs.
>>
>John Noble as Morland and not retconned Moriarty

one job
