He is the creation of Scottish author and physician Sir Arthur Conan Doyle. A brilliant London-based detective, Holmes is famous for his intellectual prowess, and is renowned for his skillful use of &#8220;deductive reasoning&#8221; while using abductive reasoning and astute observation to solve difficult cases.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><a title=\"Sherlock Home: The Complete Granada Television Series\" href=\"http:\/\/www.yousephtanha.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2008\/01\/237042.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.yousephtanha.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2008\/01\/237042.thumbnail.jpg\" alt=\"Sherlock Home: The Complete Granada Television Series\" align=\"right\" border=\"0\" \/><\/a>Not long after I finished reading all the Homes books I found <a href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/The_Adventures_of_Sherlock_Holmes_%28TV_series%29\" target=\"_blank\">The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes<\/a>\u00a0tv series on the <a href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/A%26E_Network\" target=\"_blank\">A&amp;E Network<\/a>. My mom and brother would sit with me and watch it. I don&#8217;t know why, but not long after I moved to Juneau I started poking around the internet looking for the DVD&#8217;s of this great show. I was able to find a few disks on Amazon.com, but never the complete series.

I picked it up, No questions asked.<\/p>\n<p>The actor who plays the master detective in this series is <a href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Jeremy_Brett\">Jeremy Brett<\/a>, who many consider to be the definitive screen version of Sherlock Homes. His story is quite\u00a0sad actually if you read up on him.
