So CBS wanted to remake Sherlock, didn’t get the authorization, and are now doing their own show.
That puts a WHOLE NEW LIGHT on the whole thing.
Hence why I’ve felt a bit ORLY about this project, it’s too close and too obvious.
And no, I have no anti American feelings, it has nothing to do with the show BEING American, it has to do with blatant plagiarism even if the ACD canon can be adapted as many times as possible. It’s not a Sherlock BBC snobism, or elitism, it’s how close to the the BBC show the concept is. It’s surfing on a wave, and trying to make it look like it’s just another Holmes adaptation when really, it’s just the desire to make money on a almost perfect twin to the BBC show.
My thoughts precisely.

America, why am I not surprised?
You cant just keep copying everything from England.
Take the training wheels off.

Why must we continually remake shows? Why not just air those British shows, and then make our own unique ones.
