While Benedict Cumberbatch is the most famous now Playing Doctor Strangely in McUHis initial claim of fame was playing today's version of Sherlock Holmes at the BBC. That TV show, which lasted four seasons of three 90-minute episodes, was immediate critical success. By the time the trailer of Season 3 came out, promising a resolution of that famous Clifancher of Season 2 of Sherlock, who caught his death, "Sherlock" was one of the most convenient plays of his time.

Unfortunately, the play was downhill. The quality of writing has diminished and combined with the growing gaps between the seasons, eventually killing viewers' interest. The final of Season 4 in 2017 ended in a way that promised more adventures, but no one seemed to love them more. Adding to that both of their leads were now rising to Hollywood Starswells, and no one complained much when Sherlock was put on an indefinite break. Will Cumberbatch ever consider returning to the role? The answer is yes, but not without conditions.

"Bee was supposed to be better than ever before," Cumberbatch explain in a recent interviewAsked what is needed to get it back to the show. "You leave them or they want more. There is always itching to scratch, but I think it will have to be the superlative version of what we have already achieved." He also joked that he would have to pay him "a lot of money", though it seemed clear that it was the quality of writing he most appreciated.

Cumberbatch, saying he hopes for a "superlative version" of what the show has already been done can be interpreted as he wants a bigger, bolder version of the series. However, I would argue that the best version of the potential season 5 is the one that returns to the basics. Instead of trying to open Moriarti, the evil genius who was at the time of the first two seasons, the show simply needs to focus on independent mysteries. There is no need for large, long -term arcs, such as Johnon's Love -Bowboy, which proved to be an assassin or secret sister of Sherlock, who has been making a decade -long revenge plan.

The failure of Season 4 is to understand this, I claim, which kills the initial course of the show. Ark Moriarti was initially so well accepted that the show seemed to think fans wanted things to become even more educational, smarter. But as the show continued, it became clear that the best episodes were independent. For example, the "lying detective" of Season 4, for example, was the best episode of the show of Season 2; People only tend to neglect it because it is a sandwich between two controversial, orbed episodes.

The "Lewed Detective" focused on the direct mystery, with a fun one -time villain and the bow of Sherlock's character that settled in the episode itself. This was what the fans wanted from every episode, even if the writers did not seem to know it. If the show show Steven Move and Mark Gatis really want to conquer the Cumberbatch, they should write Season 5 which is completely episodic, relatively without anxiety and not try too hard to blow up the viewers' heads. Take a sign from "Poker Face" And just try to have fun.
