Martin Freeman was really good as Watson. I'm not sure about the one who portrays Sherlock. I think he overacts. Maybe it's deliberate, but he hasn't convinced me as the sociopath he claims to be. Yes, he's eccentric and methodical, but my impression is more like a robot. Maybe it's just me. I should watch it again, and I'll do it gladly.

Overall I liked the modern update. I liked the details, like the use of the weather report on a mobile phone.

Now, on a side note, Steven Moffat penned Jekyll with James Nesbitt and that was imo a brilliant show.
