In your opinion. In my opinion, Sherlock is brilliant. Elementary is bad gender swapped fan fiction, IMO (see how that works?)

Try reading the source material so that you have more informed view.

Because so many Sherlock fans have read the source material, which is why so many of them go on and on about how Gregson is a bad rip-off of Lestrade. Right.

Hahahahaha. Another Sherlock stan who thinks it's "faithful" to the soure material.Hahahahahaha. "More informed view" Hahahahahaha.

And worse, people get on their damn high horse and act like Sherlock's "faithfulness" to canon automatically makes it both 1) good, just... ipso facto, and 2) better than other adaptations that don't hew as closely to canon (like Elementary).

I haven't seen Elementary, so I've no opinion on that. But Sherlock as well-written in comparison to the original? Um. No. Not really, no.

Anyone who's read the original Hound of Baskerville, Scandal in Bohemia or Devil's Foot should NOT be happy with Sherlock's 'Scandal in Belgravia' and 'Hounds of Baskerville'. 'Study in Pink' was pretty good, despite deliberately poking fun at the entire solution of Study in Scarlet, and both 'Great Game' and 'Reichenbach Fall' are interesting, even though Reichenback oddly reverses Holmes and Moriarty's convictions and steps they're willing to take (in the original Final Problem, it was Holmes who was willing to die to stop Moriarty and dragged Moriarty unwillingly with him, while in 'Reichenbach' ... well). 'Blind Banker', I don't even know what they were aiming at, let alone where they ended up.

Um. Clever and polished, yes. Faithful to the original canon, hell no.
