About this episode

The episode discusses the prevalence of crime in the context of recent adaptations of Sherlock Holmes stories.

There's a lot of crime to cover this week, between the mid-season opener of CBS's Watson and the last part of Sherlock & Co.'s adaptation of "Stockbroker's Clerk." How are these people not in jail? But that's a question that gets asked a lot in other venues these days, so maybe we'll forgive Watson and friends this week.
