CBS's is different because they initially asked for permission to adapt the BBC's Sherlock for US television and were denied. Thus Elementary was born.

Despite its iffy origins, though, I think it has the potential to be good. And I'm a huge Sherlock fan. I steer clear of the wank.

They asked...? Oh, why am I surprised.

Honestly, a Chinese woman in a lead role is so rare, I hope they don't do anything to screw it up. They could be great, or they could just be another reason producers say, "POC females don't sells shows, let's make everyone white males." (Not that that's always the reason, but it's one producers will claim.)

I always thought it was just because it would benefit both of them if they adapted BBC Sherlock. It'd reduce the anglophiles' "OMG COPYCAT" outcry and generate publicity for both BBC and CBS. *shrug* BBC wasn't going for it so CBS just made a different modern Holmes. They've made modern Holmes adaptations in the past, so it's not rly that "iffy" IMO.
