Premiered on July 25, 2010, Sherlock: Season One captivated audiences with a surprising modern twist on Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's great 19th Century detective, Sherlock Holmes. Benedict Cumberbatch was an unlikely, but superb, choice for playing the lead role as Sherlock Holmes… his characteristics, humor and mannerisms are enthralling and clever. Martin Freeman is great as his sidekick, Dr. John Watson… updated as a military doctor recently returned from Afghanistan. The first series consisted of three episodes:
"A Study in Pink": Sherlock Holmes and Dr. Watson meet and team up to solve the case of a serial killer whose victims appear to have committed suicide. This masterful premiere is the best of the entire series.
"The Blind Banker": Sherlock Holmes investigates a series of murders tied to Chinese organized crime and the smuggling of Asian antiquities.
"The Great Game": Sherlock Holmes and Dr. Watson are put to the test by the evil master criminal, James Moriarty.
