‘Sherlock’ Co-Creator Mark Gattis Says the Show Won’t Be Revived: “No. We had our go, and we struck gold with Benedict and Martin. I mean, what would be the point?”

They did a great job at first but then they very quickly fell victim to self-awareness and alternately pandering to and actively fighting against their fans. I still love the show, but by the time they got to the sister with mutant telepathic powers, they kind of lost me. Might have been better if they'd written the show as having literal superpowers from the beginning.

Two great seasons followed by completely disappearing up their asses and cheapening everything that had come before by association.

If you like Sherlock, try the BBC's version with Jeremy Brett. They did all the original stories with a high budget.

For something noncanon, "The 7% Solution."

Sherlock's cocaine problem is out of control and only Doctors Freud and Watson can save him.

Same idea with Firefly. How the show was treated and the result was terrible, and it would have been great to have a better start and longer run to get more content. But we got what we got, and you're not going to capture it again. The bright side is it avoided going on too long.

Battlestar Galactica could be a rare example of doing a redo well, although for nostalgic sake I'm still more a fan of the original, even though there's less there content-wise.
