Kattiera Nana I think this is a new genre that they're all sort of working their way through it and haven't got all the kinks worked out yet but it's a genre that works for me.
IslandGuru Who payed the critics
FuzzyTagz If the ambition is to provide two hours of instantly forgettable, popcorn-munching escapism, it succeeds.
Roy Hart If you're interested in the topic at hand, you should just watch it and judge yourself because the reviews have gone very biased by people that didn't even watch it and just hate (or love) the creator. I liked it, it was well written, narrated, and directed and it was about a topic that interests me.
heweaver I wish I knew the answers to your questions Jordan-15 - I came here seeking them too, since I caught the program on TV re-runs this AM (Wed 3/24/04)...IMDB says I need to put 10 lines in here before I can comment on it. I think that is crazy since I've already said everything I wanted to...IMDB says I need to put 10 lines in here before I can comment on it.

peteshepherd59 It's the 22nd Century, and crime has been almost eradicated in "New London", thanks to a rehabilitation program known as "cripnotism." However, a new crime wave makes it appear that cripnotism is no longer working. Inspector LaStrade (great-great-however many greats -granddaughter of the Inspector LaStrade that worked with Sherlock Holmes over two hundred years ago) has a run in with the mastermind, who looks just like Professor Moriarity. Then she hears a news release about a scientific breakthrough that makes reanimating dead tissue possible. Mistakenly believing that the man she saw is a 'reanimated' Moriarity, she insists on trying the process on Sherlock Holmes. It works, and they, acommpanied by a robo-droid that she has nicknamed Watson, begin unraveling the mystery. Later on, Watson adopts a mask of the original Dr. John Watson, to make Holmes feel more comfortable with it. The series actually does a good job of capturing Arthur Conan Doyle's original character, although he does use Basil Rathbone's line, "Elementary, My dear Watson" quite a bit.
sandiego-4 Wonderful animated "steampunk" that mixes late 19th century literature with futuristic fantasy. Like the SciFi Network's live-action THE SECRET ADVENTURES OF JULES VERNE, this isn't about the original novels so much about the spirit and adventure of the characters. When authors like Arthur Conan Doyle, Jules Verne, Edgar Rice Burroughs, and H.G. Wells, etc...penned their classics, it was a time when the world was opening up new avenues of exploration on every continent, and new avenues of discovery in laboratories and workshops. It was the dawn of the 20th century and they educated us not only to "what is"...but to "what if". As we seek new discoveries and new adventures in the future we hope there will be literary figures that take us there first that are up to par with the immortal Holmes, Fogg, and Lord Greystoke. This series has chosen one of the best to take us into the 22nd century and perhaps will introduce younger viewers to Holmes and inspire them to read Doyle's original novels. That much better than inspiring them to collect Pokemon cards.
RealmMan When I first heard about this show, I was curious. Now, having seen it, I feel sorry for all Holmes fans who have been insulted by this travesty.The notion of a chryo-frozen Holmes revived in the future is nothing new. But at least the writers could have taken the time to write some original stories! Each episode is billed as "based on" or "inspired by" the stories of the Canon, but should be credited as "b********* from." Example (consider it a spoiler if you want): An episode titled "The Hounds of the Baskervilles," "inspired by" the original tale. I don't recall werewolves on the moon being part of the novel.As for Holmes himself, I don't know who this guy is, but he's NOT Sherlock. Wearing a deerstalker and saying "elementary, dear Watson" doesn't make him Sherlock Holmes. This 'toon is way too laid back and friendly. He makes me ill.Bottom line, Holmesians: AVOID THIS CARTOON AT ALL COSTS!!!
