"Young Sherlock" highly recommended it. [View all]

Very English. The years going into adulthood. Very entertaining. Very smart.

One season. 8 episodes. Prime video.


Hero Fiennes Tiffin as Sherlock
Joseph Fiennes (his uncle) as his father Silas
Max Iron as older brother Mycroft
Donal Finn as Moriarty.

Sherlock and Moriarty are a team in this. Both young always in trouble at Oxford types. Great brotherly competitive repartee and fighting between the two especially early on.

Guy Ritchie produced.

84% on Rotten Tomatoes
7.5/10 on IMDB.

Young Sherlock is a new action-mystery series on Prime Video that reimagines the origin story of Sherlock Holmes as a rebellious, 19-year-old in 1870s Oxford, starring Hero Fiennes Tiffin, and executive produced by Guy Ritchie, who also directed the first two episodes. The show follows a disgraced, unfiltered Sherlock as he gets involved in a murder case that spirals into a globe-trotting conspiracy, introducing key characters like a young James Moriarty and his brother Mycroft. The first season, inspired by but diverging from Andrew Lane's book series, dropped all eight episodes on March 4, 2026.
