Watson S1
Watson brings one of history’s greatest detectives into the modern day to turn his attention from solving crimes to solving medical mysteries.
Morris Chestnut (Lance in The Best Man franchise) stars as Dr John Watson, who returns to work as the head of a clinic treating rare disorders following the death of his friend Sherlock Holmes. But Watson’s old life isn’t done with him yet: Moriarty and Watson are set to write their own chapter of a story that has fascinated audiences for more than a century.
Created by showrunner Craig Sweeny (Elementary), the medical drama’s already been renewed for a second season. Watson S1 is now available to binge on Showmax.
