Sherlock — The BBC’s modern take on Conan Doyle’s Sherlock Holmes doesn’t pack quite the same homoerotic tension as Guy Ritchie’s reimagining, but Holmes (Benedict Cumberbatch) and Watson (Martin Freeman) have an Odd Couple-like rapport that makes for an enjoyable TV experience. Director Paul McGuigan (Push) crafts a fast-paced, highly stylish pilot, and though seeing Holmes amid a sea of cell phones is a bit jarring at first, it’s quality BBC TV at its best.
