That's your weakness. You always want everything to be clever.
The acclaimed BBC show Sherlock has found the new streaming
home close to three years after leaving Netflix,
and Screen Rant is the case.
Beginning in 2010, the show was a modernized take on
Sherlock Holmes character,
with Benedict Cumberbatch playing the titular sleuth and The Hobbit
*
Martin Freeman taking the role of Doctor Watson.
The show won a total of 9 Primetime Emmy Awards
as well as a Peabody Award,
and ran for Four Seasons in 13 episodes before concluding
in January.
Of 2017, Sherlock enjoyed prolonged success on Netflix before leaving
the streaming service in 2021.
Now, Sherlock will be coming to Hulu later this month,
with Kaleido reporting that all 13 episodes will drop on
the platform on March 26th.
Hey, that's really soon. Good,
you got that too. So could a new home for
Sherlock lead to more seasons?
Well, Sherlock became a huge hit when he debuted on
the BBC in the UK and PBS in the United
States and was praised for the quality of its writing,
performances, and villains. However, many believe that the quality dropped
following the death of Jim Moriarty.
Played by Andrew Scott, often regarded as one of the
best Sherlock villains,
and reception to the latter two seasons was less enthusiastic.
Smart, OK investigative journalist. Despite this,
there remains interest in a potential continuation in a new
audience on Hulu could just be what it needs to
rekindle interest and pave the way for further seasons.
New Sherlock episodes will depend entirely on the availability of
Cumberbatch and Freeman,
both of whom have become household names in the decades
since the show first aired.
However, in today's reboot happy culture,
Sherlock's return remains a strong possibility.
Case closed for now. Screen went out.
