Sherlock was a groundbreaking detective series that modernized adaptations of Arthur Conan Doyle's Sherlock Holmes books, featuring feature-length episodes detailing the exploits of the eponymous genius detective. The show featured Benedict Cumberbatch as Sherlock Holmes and Martin Freeman as his companion, Dr. John Watson.

The four seasons of Sherlock varied in quality, with some being better than others. The show received wide acclaim, but as it progressed, it began to wane in later years.

The unfavored special in 2016 only added to this sentiment.

Season 4 delved into Sherlock's family history, focusing on the psychological schemes of his sister Eurus Holmes, leading to a tragedy that illuminated the complex dynamics of the Holmes family. While it had some highlights, such as the return of Sherlock's nemesis Jim Moriarty and the depiction of Eurus, the season suffered from a continued focus on character development over the plot, which undermined the central mystery essential to each episode.

Season 3 continued the trend of focusing on character arcs and development rather than establishing a compelling central mystery within the plot. It featured Sherlock's return after faking his death to dismantle Moriarty's criminal network and introduced a new adversary, Charles Magnussen. The extended sequences in Sherlock's mind palace were a highlight, but the season also had moments that felt like an anticlimax and wasted potential.
