The story of Sherlock Holmes is an old one, but never has it been as present in modern pop culture as it is nowadays. First came the Robert Downey Jr./Jude Law film in 2009. That Guy Ritchie-directed flick did well, but, since it was, for the most part, a silly comedy, it can’t quite hold the same emotional depth as BBC One's Sherlock, which is set in modern-day London.
