Used to have goals to be the crazy cat lady when I got old ...

thinking about a doctor who episode like with van gogh but instead with other famous artists/authors

like can you imagine. the doctor and their companion take sir arthur conan doyle to the future to get inspired or whatever and he looks around and sees they made sherlock holmes into both a mouse and a garden gnome and then he says ‘doctor how about you just shoot me in the face’

you wouldn’t last an hour in the asylum where they raised me

However, he is almost always adapted to be extremely stoic and unable to interact with people in a regular fashion, as is a common trope with genius characters. Whether being smart but socially inept is a caricature of Savant Syndrome or a result of an effort to create flaw in a character whose skills were not balanced out with much deficit, it is clear that Sherlock Holmes has been the subject of much transformation in the public consciousness, straying from the envisioning of Sir Arthur Ignatius Conan Doyle. Is this modified personality better, creating a more well-rounded and interesting character?
