BBC’s Sherlock show. Good or Bad?

                                                                                                          Sir Arther Conan Doyle’s Sherlock Holmes has been portrayed by dozens upon dozens of actors. They made great movies and spectacular shows. The character of Sherlock Holmes intrigues me. I have always loved deceives and crime, that sort of stuff. I have recently got into Sherlock Holmes stuff and I haven  started my favorite of all the Sherlock Holmes shows “Sherlock”. Sherlock follows the adventures of John Watson (who had just came back from fighting in Afghanistan) and the first consulting detective. Watson moves into a flat with Sherlock Holmes, and from there they solves crimes together. I have not finished the show, I am currently on the 3rd season. I think the show is great. The crime genre that the show is going for really leaves me at the edge at my seat. The world wide internet says otherwise after season 2. The first two or three seasons were critically acclaimed by audiences around the world. After that, the show got mixed reviews. The crime genre was turning into to comedy then horror and back to crime. The reason the show did so well was because of the character Sherlock was, “a high functioning sociopath”. He dealt with problems that really could happen. The show was realistic fiction I would say.  Although no one quite like Sherlock exists, someone like him could exist. As the show progressed he faced billionaires and superpowers people. And that is were the show fell apart, it wasn’t real anymore. Sir Arther Conan Doyle’s work was different. So “Sherlock” is good show up to like season 4. If a season 5 does come, the show needs to change.
