I do love all the character interactions on Sherlock. We get good moments with Sherlock and Joan on Elementary, but not every week, and not a lot besides that. (I did like Gregson's awareness that Holmes had been in rehab, and the fact that he kept quiet about it.)
The Christmas party was wonderful! I suppose in Sherlock, I'm really watching for the characters, and the mystery is less important—which is good, because some of my "wait, what?" moments come before the episode even ends!
Jeremy Brett was my first screen Holmes, and he may always be my favorite; I grew up on him. I preferred Hardwicke to Burke as well.
I have not seen the Hound with Roxburgh and Hart; I just had to look it up.
Yes! Watson had a pretty active love life! ACD's Watson, though, strikes me as a bit more outgoing than Joan Watson. She seems more introspective and, dare I say it, more intelligent than most Watsons? One can hope, though. They've worked in Ms. Hudson and tackled both Adler and Moriarty; I'm not sure we need a Joan Watson with “an experience of [men] which extends over many nations and three separate continents.” A less lonely life would be good, though. I liked when they showed us some of her friends—and her friends deciding to stage an intervention!—and her friends realizing they were wrong.
