Re: Defining “adaptation”

[(Anonymous)]

See I'd disagree with Sherlock because it literally does adapt the book cases, not well imo, but it's doing more than just taking the names. I'd consider it to be a loose adaptation if we're hemming and hawwing it all, but it's certainly an adaptation in the way that Psych is not.

Something doesn't have to be a good adaptation to be one after all.

Hmmm. I guess for me, setting and characters are two keys to anything, and if your adaption doesn't have at least one of those, it isn't really an adaption? Like, lots of things take the plot lines of some other famous work and redo it in a new setting and with new characters. I wouldn't call those adaptions. And Sherlock is basically that, they just used the same character names as well.

DA and I hate Sherlock but it’s absolutely an adaptation. They have the characters and the cases. They genderbent some characters and mushed some others together. They did a pretty awful job on just about everything in the show but it is very clearly an adaptation of ACD’s works.

Re: Defining “adaptation”

Okay. I could be wrong. I never watched more than a couple episodes, and I don't even like the original Sherlock Holmes. It just seems to me like the characters are so completely different from the book ones in the parts I've seen that they wouldn't be recognizable if they didn't have the names.

AYRT.

To echo the other anon, yeah it really is an adaptation even if it isn't a good one, like it literally adapts actual ACD books. Again: not well but that doesn't stop it from being an adaptation.

It uses far more than just the character names for it to be a homage, it just tries to import the canon into a modern setting, but that doesn't make it not an adaptation. Things like Psych and House are homages as they take inspiration from Holmes but aren't trying to do a full on adaptation which Sherlock absolutely was.

Re: Defining “adaptation”

Okay. Not an opinion I'm that invested in, and I haven't watched much of the show. Just was stating the impression I had from what I had watched.
