Thank you bro! Everyone also needs to check out my Doctor Who Deep Dives!
Line of duty, Luther and slow horses are fantastic British series
You two are killing it with these British reactions. Who and now Sherlock, you are now firmly cemented as my favourite reactors ❤
The modern Doctor Watson and in the books both served in Afghanistan
Rekkai never fails to impress me 👏 He was on the money about the cab driver instantly!
It was just that Sherlock said it earlier.. who could move around the city and be invisible to people... why would it be the passenger?
The "not my housekeeper" joke is that a lot of people think Mrs. Hudson was the housekeeper but she was the landlady. There are a lot of in-jokes that work as just jokes in here.
She was the housekeeper in the books.
It's thanks to Doctor Who we got this show. Steven Moffat and Mark Gatiss (Mycroft Holmes) both writing for Doctor Who and going regulary together on a train from London to Cardiff, they often talked about their love of Doctor Who but also Sherlock, wondering what it would be for a modern day Sherlock. Back home, Steven talked to his wife about it, and she said:" Well, instead of talking about it, why don't you both make the show, I'll produce it, but only if you get that creepy guy from Atonement to play Sherlock" and that's why you see produced by Sue Virtue on every episode. And seeing Rekkai's reaction I know this show was written for you.
Sue Virtue was an established producer.
@@stevev2492 I believe she started with Mr Bean. I remember Sue telling she invited Cumberbatch to talk about this show for the first time and her mother answered the door and Cumberbatch asked to her mother if she could make a tea, and Beryl Virtue did, and Cumberbatch only later realized her mother was the founder of the Hartwood filmstudio and felt ashamed he didn't realize it at that moment.
Did she REALLY say that creepy guy from Atonement? Lol
Getting Benedict wasn’t a requirement from Sue, but them watching atonement made them think of him auditioning. Also, Sue is a producer in her own right. It’s her career & shes part of the production company that produced the series.
Oh my god! Yeyyy! You're watching this because of Moffat aren't you?
Not really... I heard it was excellent and when Syntell heard I had never watched it.... we were off to the races
If they were there are worse reasons to watch a show
@@lindala2602Not really, no. If you appreciate someone’s work then you naturally want to see what else they have worked on. The direct correlation between S5 + S6 of Dr Who is not that far fetched to then watch this, they were released around the same time.
Fun fact: On the Friday before this aired, I was asked to appear in a BBC interview with Stephen Moffat about this show. I'm the film curator for the Sherlock Holmes Society of London, but I don't actually live in London, and by the time I could've got down there by train, I wouldn't have had time to watch the show before the interview.
Shame, you missed your 5 minutes of fame.
@@stevev2492 And I haven't stopped complaining about it since.
@@MJE-riffs Love this.🤣 I'd be talking about it on my death bed. Such a pity you missed it. Brilliant to be asked though.
The bit with "Rache - German for 'revenge'" is actually a really clever reference to the original story, "A Study in Scarlet"; in that one, the police think it's supposed to be "Rachel" right away, but Sherlock figures that it's the German word. The show is full of easter eggs and references like that
9:17 To this day I cannot plug my phone in without thinking about this line and it makes me so mad lol
😂 Me too! Any time I don’t get it first time I’m like, “Sherlock was such a liar!” But then I remember the phones most of us had at the start of the 2010s (BlackBerrys, Nokias etc) and, admittedly, the charging holes were a lot easier to plug into back then!
What an amazing surprise!!! Thank you! I'm so happy right now, Lol! I don't know why more ppl don't react to this amazing show. I think it's right up your alleys, especially Rekkai's. Smart people need/love smart shows, and this is definitely that! The writing is very good.
Side bar: I want to 2nd another commenters request that you check out Luther when you get the time. Pleeeease! ❤ Thanks guys! 🎉🎉
Yay! I love this series and now my favorite reacters are watching! ❤❤
Pistols are legal to own in the UK if they meet certain specifications but Watson’s pistol wouldn’t meet those specifications. It’s generally accepted by the fandom that he’s kept his service pistol from his time in the military.
You also need a license issued by the police and you wouldn't get one for "self defence".
@@stevev2492 need? only if u have no mind of yr own
What a pleasant surprise this popping up. Sweet! You two doing this show, fantastic, can't wait for this ride.
Here's a sad fun fact: In the original writing, Doyle first wrote (1887) that Watson came home from his army tour of Afghanistan. In this modern retelling, more than a hundred years later, he sadly was 'still' returning from the very real tour of Afghanistan.
I did admittedly go into this cynically kicking and screaming, so bored and nothing to watch, but by the time Holmes comes back to his flat and asks Holmes if he wants to see more action, I was pleasantly sold! Such good writing and pacing!
P.S. You should really try Gosford Park. It was the 'sorta' precursor to Downton Abbey; same writer, he had collected so much unused research material for GP, that he had enough left over to pitch a season of DA.
Great choice - fab reaction
U guys react to the goated shows I swear😂
This show is literally an example of someone becoming famous overnight. It aired in July 2010 in the uk & the next day everyone here knew who Cumberbatch was and it got huge ratings. He went from just known by a small few to a huge national figure overnight. It was pretty crazy how the show blew up. Moffat & Gatiss creating this show & writing it together was a great team.
This a fun series. Thanks for posting your reaction. 😉
Y'all are making me want to watch this whole series again!
They are both such amazing actors! I’d love to see them switch roles, too.
One of the most brilliant series. I am so glad you guys get to watch it!
I'm absolutely thrilled you're doing Sherlock reactions! I'm absolutely invested!
Oh my God I am going to scream 😱 😲😲😲😲😍😍😍😋😋
You’ve made a most excellent choice with Sherlock. Thank you!!! May your views and likes always be equal.
Ritchie's Moriarty was played by Jared Harris, son of Richard Harris (Gladiator' Cesar, Dumbledore, Unforgiven).
PLEEEASE do Luther(!) and consider me subscribed!
Maria Konnikova, a psychologist and the author of _How to Think Like Sherlock Holmes,_ has an article called "Stop Calling Sherlock Holmes a Sociopath! Thanks, a Psychologist." It is more about the book character, but I'm not sure this version qualifies either. I always kind of took this as a snarky comeback more than a diagnostic fact. Perhaps as we go along, we'll see what you think. Moffat has said, "He's not a psychopath, he's not a sociopath . . . he's a man who chooses to be the way he is because he thinks it makes him better. It's a monastic decision. He takes himself out of touch with his sexuality, out of touch with his emotions in order to make himself better."
Oh!!! I LOVE that you’re doing Sherlock!!!
Moffat was the co-showrunner a lead writer alongside Mark Gatiss, who also plays Mycroft. Those 2 are best buddies, they've worked on so many shows together, including Who!
Yesssss 💙
23.25 Dr who in Volcano Day, the guy with the arm made of stone 👍
💖BBC Sherlock💖
I always rewatch any and all of “Sherlock” when ever I feel like a good mystery
💖reading the books… glad you gents are watching 🙏🥰🤩
Mark Gatiss & Stephen Moffat co-created this ( watch their Dracula ) almost all the reference are taken from the original books with just reworks to the 21st century. Study in pink being study in Scarlet in the books. The phone dissection scene is iconic to Sherlock Holmes, it was a pocket watch in the books.
Thank you for reacting to this and for bringing your amazing knowledge and understanding of Sherlock Holmes...love this reaction!!!
Big Sherlock fan here and your reaction turned up on my UA-cam feed tonight out of nowhere. I watch a lot of reactions when it's something that I like which I guess is the same as everyone else. Anyhow! Watching you guys react? I can honestly say that this is the first time I've considered joining someone's Patreon subscription because I find your reactions entertaining as hell and I want to see more! This was great!
I absolutely loved this show. This version of Sherlock
Made me love and started to read the old books again..
He is savage, and didn't care if you liked what he said or not.
One of my favorite shows ever. Great reactions. Subscribed.
Super excited for this - can't wait for future episodes! Another great series for you is another of my favourites "Ripper Street". Five series of greatness.
OH GOD YES. Sherlock was massive for me when it came out. That same year I got a cat and named him Sherlock (he’s 13 now!) and a few years later I wrote my dissertation comparing different adaptations of Sherlock Holmes.
Ah it’s a fun show!
Yes!!! So happy you are getting into these.
Martin Freeman is phenomenal in this series. His is my favorite performance.
Probably one of the best written and acted tv shows ever. In a league of its own. Hope you enjoy.
Loved the reaction! Hope you continue, subscribed for more!
I love this first season.
So good to SEE Rekkai (aka he got a higher quality camera and/or internet speed).
Don’t understand why more reactors don’t do this. Its the perfect show to react to and it’s so good
Some of the most intelligent, intuitive reactions on YT
It was created by Stephen Moffatt and Mark Gatiss, based on Conan Doyle's stories, and written by them and Stephen Thompson.
I love that you guys are reacting to this!!
Mark Gatiss, who plays Mycroft, is a co-creator of this series, as well as a writer. You might recognize him from the Doctor Who episode The Lazarus Experiment (which he wrote) and one of the Nazis in Good Omens.
Sherlock is an INTP/ Logician Analyst. Watson is an INFJ/ Advocate Diplomat. These are two of the 16 MBTI personalities. Google and UA-cam, the 16 MBTI personalities, it explain everything about everyone in society.
These reviews are so wonderful, intelligent and well observed. You don't miss any of the nuances. Impressive and fun, rather like this version of Sherlock Holmes.
The A in Gatiss is pronounced like the A in gate. This led to a funny moment when he won an Olivier award this year and the announcer pronounced it wrong, so Gatiss had to correct that before giving the rest of his speech. (He won over David Tennant in "Macbeth," by the way.) This version of Mycroft is inspired by Christopher Lee's portrayal of a thin Mycroft in _The Private Life of Sherlock Holmes._
Stephen Fry played Mycroft in the second Downey movie.
Jack the Ripper isn't in the original Conan Doyle stories (although a popular subject in pastiches by modern writers, as in the movies, _A Study in Terror_ and _Murder by Decree_ and the pastiche novels _Dust and Shadow, The Whitechapel Horrors,_ etc.), but it was in that period (and all the way up to 1915).
Steven Moffat and Mark Gatiss (whom you've seen on _Doctor Who_ and who has also written for _Doctor Who)_ are the co-creators and -showrunners for _Sherlock._ They used to talk about the way to do a new version of Sherlock Holmes while riding the train to Cardiff for _Doctor Who_ and finally decided to do it. They use things from most previous versions of Sherlock Holmes, as well as the Canon (the stories by Conan Doyle). I may mention more specifically as it comes up.
The "pajama suicides" are a series of murders that take place in the Basil Rathbone/Nigel Bruce movie, _The Spider Woman._
They had Sherlock text a lot in this because Holmes was wont to send telegrams in the stories.
John is back from the war in Afghanistan. Watson in _A Study in Scarlet_ also has returned from the war in Afghanistan. The police think "Rache" means Rachel in the book, and Holmes realizes it is Sherlock.
When I saw the ads for this coming to PBS, I didn't think it looked that great (but, of course, as a Sherlockian, I was bound to watch it) -- particularly didn't see the need to change "The game is afoot," a phrase from Shakespeare that could reasonably be used in modern day. I don't like his rather sexist (and slut shaming) takedown of Sally. You will have seen this actress (Vinette Robinson) in the episode of _Doctor Who_ where Martha and the Doctor are on a spaceship hurtling towards the sun ("42").
Holmes in _The Sign of Four_ makes deductions (technically inductions, but we are going to use the traditional Doylean term, of course) from Watson's watch rather than his cell phone (obviously).
I love these reactions. The comments and conversation are intelligent and really funny.
Hand in hand. Opposite sides of the same coin. Mirror Images! Idris and Benedict playing Sherlock and Luther are perfect casting!
Matt Smith auditioned for Watson but Steven Moffatt thought he was too similar in height/build/style to Benedict Cumberbatch,but remembered him when he was casting for Doctor Who.
One of my top 5 all-time favorite series. Looking forward to more reactions to it.
Hey, this was actually not the pilot, it’s the first official episode. They reshot the OG pilot and changed a few beats and dialog, but the story is the same. You can actually find the original pilot to watch on the internet and Benedict Cumberbatch looks much younger in it! There’s even a drunk scene before Sherlock gets kidnapped.
Rekkai!! I know life be lifeing but I am so glad to watch you discover this Sherlock Holmes version!!! Thank you for introducing him Syntell and can't wait to discover this again with both of you. ❤💖
Moffat-era Doctor Who AND Sherlock?!?!?!? Christmas has come early! Thanks guys! Moffat is an amazing writer and the current seasons are him on top form.
yesss
Kudos to Rekkai for figuring out the murderer before Sherlock (technically, Sherlock doesn't figure it out; the murderer comes to get him, a change from the book).
Mark Gatiss (Mycroft) has also written several episodes of Dr Who and has also appeared in several episodes
John's therapist suggests he try writing a blog; she isn't writing a blog about him. She says: ". . . and writing a blog about everything that happens to you will honestly help you." I think you're hearing "and" as "I'm."
In the TV series, Dr. Watson returns to London from Afghanistan after serving in the Royal Army Medical Corps.
In Arthur Conan Doyle's Sherlock Holmes stories, Dr. John Watson was a surgeon in the British army during the Second Anglo-Afghan War in the late 1870s:
I love that you're doing this series! I don't think I've seen another reactor do Sherlock. I just re-watched the series for the 7th or 8th time.
I’m just glad my suggestions are being heard. Syntell w/ the MF intel!!!
Nice reaction....looking forward to this
Thanks!
Thank you so much 🙏🏾
Another fun easter-egg: Watson with the leg-injury that turned out to be psychosomatic as his real injury was in his shoulder --- in the books, Arthur Conan Doyle was a bit lax on continuity and in one story described Watson as having been shot in the leg, and in another stated that his wound was in his shoulder. This show was Moffat being playful with that ambiguity.
Stephen Fry was Mycroft to RDJ's Sherlock. He was only in Games Of Shadows though
Man, I remember wanting a Sherlock and Luther crossover so bad back then.
I'm here for this reaction...❤
Oooooh. Good choice! Looking forward to these reactions.
I am so happy that you found one of my favorite series Sherlock Holmes with Cumberbatch. Another series that you should check out and you will absolutely love. Is Broadchurch.
221b was also House's apartment number ...
That's because House is a medical modern day take on Sherlock Holmes
The taxi driver is Holly from Red Dwarf, something you should put on your watch list.
I think you've got him mixed up with someone else, mate.
This actor is Phil Davis, who has been in loads of t.v. and films.
nah
When we get introduced to Sherlocks mother & father they're played by Cumberbatch's actual parents who are legit actors. Una Stubbs was a friend of their and around Benedict as he was growing up. So he has a natural familial chemistry with her as his landlady. Not as his house keeper though.
Yes! Love sherlock!!
Loving your reactions so as soon as it saw Sherlock I hit like!
I've watched this series a few times. Very nice reaction.
It's an amazing series. It's great to see you guys watching it. I always used to wind up my girlfriend (at the time) when we used to drive to London to visit her relatives, she would drive through Baker Street and asked me who lived there. I'd always answer Danger Mouse (which was a cartoon about a spy who lived in a red post box) she would just look at me 😂😂😂. If you ever get a chance take a look at Steven Moffats modern retelling of Jekyll.
Had to stumble into this through Playlists on Syntell's UA-cam...
This really should be more popular, between your audience and Sherlocks.
Brilliant stuff, loved watching along.👏👍
Only in modern days people do think that Sherlock and John were a couple not friends living at the same address.
Sherlock was created by the great Dr Who team of Steven Moffatt and Mark Gatiss (Mycroft). They are excellent writers. I didn't like Downtown Abbey either, the writer is part of the aristocracy so he presents a stylised image without a lot of substance although I did like him as the funny Kilwillie in the really good Monarch of the Glen. I miss that show.
0:01 this is why people hate Sherlock but also why the fans love him 😂
Benedict Cumberbatch: His mum is in classic Who.
After this, you guys should watch Humans (BBC). It was super popular when it came out. Takes a few episodes to get into but really good. Here's a summary from IMDB - "Humans" is set in a parallel present where the latest must-have gadget for any busy family is a Synth, a highly-developed robotic servant eerily similar to its live counterpart. In the hope of transforming the way they live, one strained suburban family purchases a refurbished synth and discovers that sharing life with a machine has chilling, far-reaching consequences.
OG tumblr girlies are getting war flashbacks. If they started supernatural out of nowhere it would be the rebirth of the great superwholock
An entertaining reaction to a very entertaining series.
Glad to see y’all infected with the Moffat bug.
Sherlock was the BEST modern take ever! funny they keep insinuating they are romantically involved, that has been heavily discussed about the og sherlock and watson!
This is a great mini series.
When I first saw this I was mindblown. Cumberbatch did the performance of the decade and Freeman was equally good. I consider Episode one of Season 2 the single best series episode in history actually...(my taste)
can’t wait for more sherlock reactions!
Mark Gattis wrote this a great actor in his own right he is also in a great way out Briish TV comedy The League of Gentlemen you will not have seen anything like it please have a look highly recommended Impressed by your insight you will have a wonderful trip with Sherlock
In the UK we've always, since mobile phones came out have been big texters, 221b was the original address. Basically with guns we can own them if we're normal, kept and carried under very strict rules.
or just own them anyway
In the original Sherlock Holmes stories he did _not_ go up against Jack the Ripper. While the Ripper killings happened during Arthur Conan Doyle's lifetime, he probably refrained from writing them into a story because the Ripper's killing spree began a year after Doyle began writing the Holmes Mysteries. It would have been traumatic for the families of the victims if he had done so at that time. There are modern non canonical stories of Sherlock Holmes vs the Ripper (there is even a video game!). But yeah, I think it was out of respect that he didn't do it then.
So glad your watching this its.my second favourite show after doctor who xxx
