age 13+

Based on 16 kid reviews

Kids say the show is a smart crime drama that offers a unique take on the Sherlock Holmes story, featuring a strong female portrayal of Watson and tackling themes of addiction and recovery. However, it has been criticized for excessive violence, sexual content, and being a less polished version compared to the BBC's adaptation, yet many still find it enjoyable and worth watching for older teens.
