I don’t really think the homoerotic subtext is the real issue here. But I’ve been thinking of the whole female Sherlock thing. To have a strange, eccentric, strong and brilliant female Sherlock.
I will try my best to be open-minded about this new series, but the thing I have most problem with, is the fact that the media makes John into a sidekick. (And now a /female/ sidekick. That’s something we’ve seen to often already.) John Watson is not a sidekick. He’s the BAMF holding the damn reins of Sherlock Holmes! No one else can do that. He practically owns the show.
Idk. I know to little about this new show yet. If one’s to judge from what we’ve heard from the media, it will more or less be a parody of the story. But we all know what the media’s like. I think we should wait and see before we judge.
AND: This is only in the pilot-stage yet. This might not even become a series at all.
