i liked the first season, but a lot of holmes's deduction bothered me.
SPOILERS FOR THE FIRST SEASON
the case where he deduced that the dead woman with the suitcase had been cheating on her husband based on her ring being polished on the inside felt kind of weak. i have a ring and i play with it all the time, taking it on and off my finger by force of habit.
there's also one case where he picks up the ONE important book from a pile as he's walking out, for no reason whatsoever.
for a show based on a character of logic and deduction, there sure seems to be a lot of luck in the crime solving going on!
