While Sherlock Holmes in the 22nd Century lasted just 1 season on Fox, the producers had the good sense to commission original scripts instead of relying strictly on adaptations of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's works.
Case in point is "The Five Golden Pips". The only downside is that this is an excuse to have Professor Moriarty be further established as a recurring villain in the series, when in truth, he didn't appear in too many of the novels.
I've said this before, and I'll say it again. Fox dropped the ball with Holmes, which could've continued for at least another 2 seasons.
Rating: A-.
