I'm not sure I like the idea of male Watson and female Watson. Watson has always been more emotional and, yes, less intelligent than Holmes, and making the one male and the other female just supports existing gender stereotypes. Doing the other way 'round would be way more interesting.

[lolofielding.livejournal.com]

No I don't want that dynamic either which is why I think a female Holmes would be a lot more interesting. But, sadly, if they were to genderswap anyone I can see it more likely being Watson for the very gender stereotyped reasons you stated. I can just imagine a producer saying something like; "Watson always felt more feminine to me...so we thought to make him female here."

Which is what happened to the protagonist of the Silent Hill movie. :P And that gave me enough "eww" to last me a lifetime.

It's been done, sort of. There was a 70s tv movie that starred Larry Hagman as an inept motorcycle cop named Stanley Holmes whose motorcycle falls over onto his head, and he wakes up thinking he's Sherlock Holmes, and his social worker is a woman named Watson.
