Sherlock, the reboot which has Holmes texting to taunt Lestrade and Watson recently returned from Afghanistan, is a kick. Episode one (of three) recreates “A Study in Scarlet” with a lot of nice flourishes that an old Holmesteader could enjoy while delighting the complete newbie sitting on the couch next to me, aping the stiff arrogant voice of Benedict Cumberbatch, who nails his portrayal of Holmes. Martin Freeman is another precisely-calibrated choice, reminding of and revising our sense of Watson. We’ll see where it goes, but while I sort of enjoyed Guy Ritchie’s manic boys-will-be-etc. hyperbole, this was a lot better. . .
