This is a wonderful series and it is well worth watching all eight episodes.
I'm accustomed to subtitles so that wasn't a huge problem for me -- I admit that unlike the Italian and Scandinavian shows I'm use to watching, these subtitles were more challenging... I'm not quite sure why.
I loved how the writers started reimagining things and giving us glimpses into storylines that are seemingly quite fresh. One of them is the work that goes into Watson becoming a published author.
The feeling I got watching this was that it was a labor of love by all concerned -- the writers, actors, production crew, everyone.
The acting is excellent and the stories engaging. Keep an open mind and don't let the Cumberbatch or Downey or whoever else has been Holmes intrude on your ability to enjoy these.
The eighth and last episode offers a couple of emotional pay-offs which just made me happy. One is expected, but the other is not and is pretty fun.
Bravo!
