I guess this is a case of Your Mileage May Vary. I really really like Freeman's Watson because to me it's like the Watson who wrote Doyle's stories just stepped out from behind the pages onto the screen (from behind the pages, not off the pages, because Doyle's Watson likes to go a little self deprecatey sometimes in order to make Holmes shine).

Yeah, there's a lot to hate in BBC Sherlock, but ... yeah. If anything, for me, Freeman's Watson is a bit less fuddy than the original canon. I don't know if it's just my reading of the canon or what - and I read all of it before the BBC series, or the referenced movies, so it's not a reaction to that.

I think BBC Watson is actually a perfect modernisation. He really acts like I would imagine a person of his background and character to act when confronted with a character like Sherlock. You can't expect a character in today's world to act the same as his Victorian era gentleman counterpart. Modern warfare is different. Modern society is different. Modern society's reaction to unusual behaviour is different. Freeman's Watson is taking the original Watson and dragging him through all those different modern circumstances, which results in the character we see on BBC Sherlock. It makes sense.

Finally, someone gets it!

This is almost precisely what I put on my Livejournal back when the show first aired. Thanks!
