      It's been over a decade since I've read them. I remember enjoying them but not much else! And now I've watched Sherlock, House, The Mentalist, parts of Elementary (barf), the movies, and The Great Mouse Detective. I should revisit the stories

      I almost want to say, abysmal personality flaws aside, House did Holmes pretty well. I'd say the thing it gets right the best is that the urge to investigate is part of an addictive personality that Holmes doesn't manage very well.

      That said, Holmes is obviously MUCH more of a functional human than House, and House needed to be punched about three times per episode, not to mention fired.

      Monk is also an interesting Holmes pastiche with a completely different kind of neurodiversity. But seriously, the best one besides Elementary is Zero Effect.

      Adrian Monk's older brother, Ambrose Monk, is one of the truest-to-the-text versions of Mycroft Holmes I've ever seen

      YES. It's a show i find hard to watch for Reasons, but i think it's generally very compassionate to its characters.

      I really need to finish Monk. I just tend to get uncomfortable watching it. I think because of how often the humor is based in embarrassment and...I don't know, maybe I'm too empathetic or something. I just don't enjoy it. It's a big reason why I can't do sitcoms.

      Replying to @CWGaither @iridienne and

      I had to stop watching Monk because of some insultingly bad script handling of a scene with a gun like, a cop mishandling a gun? sure (shit, they do it often enough IRL) but there is a SUBSTANTIAL weight difference between one with a loaded magazine and one with an empty magwell

      Ah, this is a classic trope that goes back to Die Hard ("Uh oh, no bullets Hans") And yes, it's obviously ridiculous if you've ever handled a real pistol

      Later iterations of this bit in media have tried to mention this fact -- Taken's line "That's the problem with sitting behind a desk, you forget things! Like the weight in the hand of a gun that's loaded and one that's not!" but it's still pretty silly

      If you wanted to actually fool somebody you'd have to put actual dummy bullets in the magazine or else do something like remove the firing pin

          Depending on the pistol, removing the firing pin would be the most reliable option That way even if they rack the slide or pop out the mag everything will look good (Dummy rounds are typically just cartridge shaped and are much lighter than cartridges)

          I'm a bad Texas girl. All I know about guns is "keep finger away from trigger unless you're shooting" "Don't point it at something unless you want to kill it" and that my dad nearly got arrested for pawning his silencer attachment so...don't do that.
