It is wild to me that not a single modernised Sherlock Holmes adaptation that ive seen made Mycroft a hacker. Stop sending him on spy missions and get that man an office with air conditioning and a mini fridge. Put the Diogenes club on discord they'd love it.

Mycroft white or gray hat hacker in service of the crown 2026. Of course he knows everyone's business he's the guy watching you through your phone.

the people reblogging this and tagging it with negative opinions of sherlock don’t realize they’re in phase one of my plan

People love to talk about how specifically bbc sherlock haunts this site when the true phantom of the tumblr blog is, in fact, just sherlock holmes in general.

This extends beyond the 96+ different sherlock adaptation tags on this site. What is Dr. Spencer Reid but a 2000s American sherlock ? What is the Doctor if not alien time lord sherlock holmes ? Every single "non-sherlock" mystery/detective form of media will have a sherlock character that will have a decade-long active tag on here.

Sherlock Holmes, in general, haunts the tumblr narrative

David Burke. 1934 - 2026. A great actor and the no. 1 Watson the world has ever known.

From the John H. Watson Society: One of the finest and most beloved Watsons ever to grace the screen has passed away. David Burke was 91 years old, just shy of his 92nd birthday, and he is survived by his wife Anna Calder-Marshall and his son Tom Burke.

By all accounts, he was a gentleman and a wonderful human being. He could have stayed on to play Watson much longer, which would have made many of us very happy, but he chose to leave the show to be nearer to his family, especially since Tom was very young at the time.

His was not the first intelligent and competent Watson, but this version marked a turning point in mainstream depictions, from comedic sidekick to a hero in his own right.

RIP, dear sir. You will be missed. JOHN H. WATSON SOCIETY

I know we love to talk about Sir Arthur Conan Doyle’s weird spiritualism and his love-hate relationship with Houdini, but I feel like we’re sleeping on several other aspects of his character here

Like, he personally Sherlocked two dudes out of prison? He was a whaler? He was a doctor and a field surgeon. Dude had a lot going on. Also I knew he was knighted, but I never thought to ask WHY. Low key thought the crown just REALLY liked his books.
