Zack, Seth, and Ian talk about this remake with Statham. It’s not too bad, not great I saw the original with C. Brons when I was a kid … that’s probably better.

Zack and Ian end the old year and start the new one with a hefty discussion about detectivish goodness. Sherlock is one of the best new shows to be sure. Doing the detective genre in a fun/modern way without turning it into CSI garbage. Tune in next week for ep. 2-3 and a little hint of a clue as to the show Ian is currently writing that will be the biggest thing in 2022.
