#oh god i didnt even mention him being (unintentionally probably but still doing it regardless) mean to molly i think her name was ehhh

i was Just rewatching the first episode of bbc sherlock with my mum before seeing the new letters from watson email had been sent and even though it's just the first chapter it's already making me sad to see how much they changed just his Introduction

like he's so endearing !! and so clearly passionate about crime solving in a way his introduction in a study in pink just doesn't get across as well imo

if they were even aiming for that at all, which.... im doubtful ? i think bbc sherlock was a lot more concerned with making him seem cool maybe, and Definitely with getting across that he's Fucked Up or whatever and his giddy excitement here doesn't really work well with that intent. there's the scene later on in 221b baker street where they got a bit closer to showing his passion but in that scene the thing he's excited about is another murder happening which. changes it a lot i think.

he's finally shown to be passionate about his work in some way, sure, but i think it was done to, again, lean into the "ooo isn't this guy A Bit Strange" thing by having him get excited about a stranger's death. i wouldn't consider it a scene showing his love for his work, i think it's more about his hatred for being bored, because a study in pink leans more towards his passion for his work being a bad thing with how it makes his reasoning a lot more .... pessimistic maybe ?

like pink has characters talk about how he gets off on crimes in a jaded way when it's not just about it being something that stops him being bored while scarlet compares him to a child with a new toy to describe how passionately he feels and i feel like i'm using the word passionate a lot but it's the only word i think describes what it is i love about the sherlock short stories i've read so far and now the beginning of this novel that bbc sherlock (at least in it's first episode) just. doesn't really have. either that or love, maybe.

idk this is just the first chapter and i don't remember much at all of bbc sherlock after a study in pink so my opinion will probably change at some point but this is how i feel about the adaptation currently.

and anyway i wanted an excuse to show some screenshots of nice sherlock scenes bc i love him a lot

”#sorry if this is negative . i wouldn't usually say that but it feels weird when its abt sherlock idk, #oh god i didnt even mention him being (unintentionally probably but still doing it regardless) mean to molly i think her name was ehhh, #idk it just felt a bit . god idk how to describe it other than edgy but i think my idea of edgy isn't very similar to the general idea of it, #maybe jaded. again. idk i should probably google that word to make sure im using it right, #did it. it does fit thankfully. it doesnt fully get across my opinions though, #but yknow its a single word thats asking a lot of it”
