Valid reasons to be annoyed with CBS right now:
oxfordtweed:
° Watson is no longer the accomplished and decorated war hero and army doctor, two aspects of the character which have always, in some way or another, coloured the way the character behaves and the decisions they make. Not only does it change the character, but it sends a message that women aren’t capable of fighting for their country. ° Related to the above, Watson has no longer...

Switching up the gender roles is not the only revamp the series contains, it is set in the present day and will not be based in London. (!)
Instead Holmes is a former consultant to Scotland Yard and has just emerged from a rehabilitation centre in New York.(!!)

“Yeah, Quirrell was a great teacher. There was just that minor drawback of him having Lord Voldemort sticking out of the back of his head!”
“Well, I had one that I was playing Quidditch the other night,” said Ron, screwing up his face in an effort to remember. “What do you think that means?” “Probably that you’re going to be eaten by a giant marshmallow or something,” said...

And no, this isn’t hatred, nor is this BBC-Sherlock-is-superior babbling. Up until now I’ve been willing to give it a chance, and when it does air, I’m still going to give it one last shot to impress me with its first episode.

You’re allowed to experiment, you’re allowed to question, you’re allowed to dwell on it as much or as little as you want because...
