Earlier this year, CBS launched the Watson TV series, a medical mystery series following a current-day version of Sherlock Holmes’ best friend. It’s performed very well in the ratings and has been renewed for a second season. Now, The CW has introduced a series about the legendary sleuth himself. How will it perform? Will Sherlock & Daughter be cancelled or renewed for season two? Stay tuned.
A period mystery thriller series, the Sherlock & Daughter TV show is based on the Sherlock Holmes stories by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle. It stars David Thewlis, Blu Hunt, Ardal O’Hanlon, Fiona Glascott, and Aidan McArdle. In this story, Sherlock Holmes (Thewlis) is out of his comfort zone and has become embroiled in a malevolent conspiracy involving his archenemy, Professor Moriarty (Dougray Scott). The legendary sleuth is unable to investigate the sinister case without risking the lives of his closest friends — until he meets Amelia Rojas (Hunt), a young Native-American. After her mother’s mysterious murder, Amelia learns that her missing father may be the famous detective. Despite wildly different backgrounds and attitudes, the pair must work together to solve a global conspiracy, crack Amelia’s mother’s murder, and find out for sure if Amelia is Sherlock’s daughter.

What do you think? Do you like the Sherlock & Daughter TV series on The CW? Should it be cancelled or renewed for a second season?
Mostly entertaining. Ending was weak. Deserves a 2nd season. Doubt it will.
Season 1 really came together nicely for a fun and satisfying finale, worth the watch. Really deserves a second season.
Please renew. This show is great!
I have watched every episode of this show and love it! I hope it gets a second season as it deserves it 100%.
Please keep this show! It is entertaining and not the usual run of the mill!
Please renew for a Season 2 – Love the show! The acting is super and the chemistry between the stars is spot on. I think Blu Hunt is terrific and we all know that David is well renown.
Love this show! Both me and my husband look foward to each episode. Please do not cancel it. We just told our friends to watch it.
Really like this show. David Thewlis and Blu Hunt’s performance and chemistry are what elevate the show. More seasons ( many more) please.
Love it and would love to see it tenewed.
The show has so much potential, would be great to see new adaptation on Sherlock’s cases, events at the time and few more twists. I do hope it picks up more seasons.
I truly believe that the show should be given a chance because Blu Hunt it’s such an underrated and unappreciated actress and she’s already killed her performance with that American style sass combine with home significant smugness it’s a great mixture
I have to say I truly enjoyed Sherlock and Daughter. I think it’s only supposed to be an 8 episode series, but I hope I’m wrong. Love to see many more.
