Sherlock is a British television series produced by Hartswood Films for BBC Wales, co-produced with WGBH Boston for its Masterpiece anthology series. It was created by Steven Moffat and Mark Gatiss, who wrote one episode each. Paul McGuigan directed the first and third episodes; Euros Lyn directed the second, which was written by Stephen Thompson.

It is a contemporary update of Arthur Conan Doyle's Sherlock Holmes detective stories, starring Benedict Cumberbatch as Holmes and Martin Freeman as Dr. Watson. Una Stubbs appears as their landlady Mrs Hudson, and Rupert Graves as DI Lestrade.

Two of the three episodes have already aired; I wrote about them here. They're 90 minutes each, and I was really impressed and hope the show gets picked up for more episodes.

Loved the first two episodes and I am looking forward to the last one on Sunday.

Yeah I loved these too. Excellent modern adaptation.

As a massive fan of the short stories, I think they've done a pretty good job. I hope it does get a full series sometime.

This premieres in the US tonight at 9/8c on PBS. I can't recommend it enough.

Can't wait for them.

Caught the pilot tonight. Had some funny moments and it was pretty intriguing. I don't normally like British tv shows, but I could definitely see myself getting into this.

Plus, that one female assistant was a stone cold fox.

I just got the overwhelming desire to watch more episodes of this but they don't even start filming until May. Ugh.

[Spencer Control]

Can't say I'm a fan of the three 1.5 hour episode system, but holy cow do I love this show. As an obsessed Holmesian, I'm pleased to say I think they nailed a modern concept of Holmes. BBC, I love you.

This show is amazing. Just watched the last episode. When are new eps coming?

[I am Mick]

Need more of this in my life. Steven Moffat is a motherfucking genius

I don't want to wait until 2012 for more. Lame.
