I just finished this series and I must say that I loved it. I just started watching it and I think it has become my new favorite series.

It narrates the adventures of a modern Sherlock Holmes and his inseparable assistant, Dr. Watson. The protagonist is Benedict Cumberbatch and the truth is that he embroiders it. His character manages to drive you on more than one occasion, but in the end you end up worshiping him.
