Prime Video recently launched the new Guy Ritchie series Young Sherlock. We gave the first season an 7/10 in our Young Sherlock review, calling the show “harmless fun with a clever spin on ‘Napoleon of Crime’ James Moriarty.”
“The ‘eight-hour movie’ aspect of this season is regrettable, and Sherlock himself often gets lost in the shuffle of what’s basically an ensemble adventure, but Young Sherlock has good chemistry, energy, and synergy.”
Prime Video is also currently in production on a live-action streaming series adaptation of God of War, the first look at which has proven divisive.
