Sherlock: A Study in Pink (2010)
Season 1, Episode 1
9/10
A great interpretation of a modern Sherlock Holmes
5 November 2015
Warning: Spoilers
The episode is thrilling, entertaining and packed with a dark and sarcastic humor. To see a man like Sherlock Holmes with such a peculiar personality, and how he is not fitting in in a modern society makes the series very entertaining. You're easily getting hooked on the show, even though each episode contains a different case.

Sherlock's insensitivity is shown pretty much all through the episode. He comments on things that others wouldn't comment on, because they know it is impolite. His lack of social skills is what makes the series humorous.

It is very interesting to see how he is observing the crime scenes and finding clues that nobody else would see. His super-intelligence is very well portrayed, as we "see his thoughts" written on the screen.

The ending indicates that something bigger is going on besides each episodes case, when the mysterious character Moriarty is mentioned by "the cabbie".
