CBS announced in January that it was developing a new Sherlock Holmes series, and this one is about his partner Watson. Today, they announced that it will debut a year after the series announcement.
Watson takes place six months after the death of the titular character’s friend and partner, Sherlock Holmes, at the hands of Moriarty. The show stars Morris Chestnut as Dr. John Watson, who resumes his medical career as the head of a clinic dedicated to treating rare disorders. Watson’s old life isn’t done with him, though – Moriarty and Watson are set to write their own chapter of a story that has fascinated audiences for more than a century. Watson is a medical show with a strong investigative spine, featuring a modern version of one of history’s greatest detectives as he turns his attention from solving crimes to solving medical mysteries.
Watson debuts on January 26th after the AFC Championship Game. It will then begin airing regular episodes starting on February 16th.
