The BBC’s Sherlock was a favorite among fans. Created by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, Sherlock Holmes is one of the most recognizable literary characters and has been adapted to all types of media. The BBC version, simply titled Sherlock, was created by Steven Moffat and Mark Gatiss, and brought the Great Detective (Benedict Cumberbatch) and his partner John Watson (Martin Freeman) to modern-day London.
Sherlock was praised for its stories and the performances of its main cast, especially Benedict Cumberbatch as Sherlock himself.
The show aired from 2010 to 2017 for four seasons, one mini-episode, and a special episode. While the first two seasons were very well-received, the final seasons weren’t as successful, and the fourth season was heavily criticized. Still, rumors about Sherlock season 5 have been floating around for years, with Gatiss and Moffat giving fans hope from time to time. However, Sherlock season 5 has not materialized.
