- 'Sherlock Holmes' (2009) - 69% Guy Ritchie directs a stylish and very Guy Ritchie-esque Sherlock Holmes (2009). Set in 1890s London, the Baker Street duo faces a secret plot that threatens England.
- 'Sherlock' (2010 - 2017) - 78% The BBC series transports Holmes to modern day London. Throughout its memorable four seasons and one special episode, the show sees Holmes clash against consulting criminal Moriarty, the mysterious Irene Adler and more.
- 'Mr. Holmes' (2015) - 88% Based on the book The Slight Trick of the Mind by Mitch Cullins, Mr. Holmes follows a retired Sherlock Holmes who is struggling to recall his last case because of his old age.
- 'House' (2004 - 2012) - 90% The Fox series House is not a conventional Sherlock Holmes adaptation as it is merely inspired by the character. Hugh Laurie plays the titular role as an eccentric genius doctor specializing in diagnostic medicine.
- Benedict Cumberbatch (Sherlock, 2010–2017) The fun thing about writing a list like this is knowing, from my own experience as a reader, that you've been counting down this whole time to see what won the top slot.
- Jeremy Brett (Sherlock Holmes, 1984–1994) There's a range of Sherlock types on this list, from the unconventional to the more traditional, and of the traditional options available Jeremy Brett is simply top of his class.
- Basil Rathbone (The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes and more, 1939-1946) For at least one generation, arguably more, Basil Rathbone was the definitive Sherlock Holmes, calm and inscrutable and always capable of solving the case.
- Jonny Lee Miller (Elementary, 2012–2019) There were two contemporary Sherlock TV shows running simultaneously for a good part of the 2010s, and Jonny Lee Miller doesn't get nearly enough credit for finding his own spin on the character while also surviving the incredible physical and mental demands that come with making a CBS procedural drama.
24. The Adventure of Sherlock Holmes' Smarter Brother. 19751h 31mPG. 6.0 (7.3K) Rate. The younger brother of the consulting detective tries to steal Sherlock's glory by solving an important case assisted by an eccentric Scotland Yard detective and a lovely but suspicious actress.
