The Problem of Thor Bridge

“Somewhere in the vaults of the bank of Cox & Co., at Charing Cross, there is a travel-worn and battered tin dispatch-box with my name, John H. Watson, M.D., Late Indian Army, painted upon the lid. It is crammed with papers, nearly all of which are records of cases to illustrate the curious problems which Mr. Sherlock Holmes had at various times to examine.”

When that show was first announced, the only details given were that it was going to be a medical drama, and it was going to be Watson during the hiatus.

This immediately made me really want it to be a late-Victorian medical drama/mystery show.

Watson would have flung himself into his medical practice to combat his grief, because without Holmes providing adventure in his life, what is he but a humble general practitioner? He treats wealthier middle class clients so that he can afford to go and treat those in poverty who can't pay.

However he learned from Holmes, and so in the course of treating the sick and injured, he keeps observing things, uncovering deeper goings-on, mysteries that need solving, and tries his best to do what Holmes would have wanted him to do.

My dream show would feature:

Mary as a major character, the love between her and Watson is strong and palpable

Holmes frequently in flashback. He haunts the narrative.

Mystery of the week, rather than one long story.

Our season 3 Kickstarter is live! Fawx & Stallion is a comedy-mystery podcast about the best detective team in London! Not that one. The other one. Across the street, and slightly to the left, at 224B Baker Street. We've successfully solved two mysteries, and we'll need your help to get a crack at a third! Scripts are written, pre-production has begun, and all we need is the funding to make this show's engine start in earnest!

Season one of the show was primarily self-financed, and season two's 10 episodes were crowdfunded and produced for $8000. For season 3, we are telling a story unlike any you've heard, with 12 full-cast episodes. Thank you to our Patreon members who have helped finance our pre-production and our wonderful team of five guest writers! For this season, we are asking for $10,000 to bring this sprawling, absurd, ambitious story to life.

We invite you to check out our crowdfunding page, which is live now, for more info on the season, our budget breakdown, and our fantastic set of rewards (early access! annotated Holmes stories! stickers! for the first time, the opportunity to name a character or provide walla for the show!)

In the interest of highlighting our rewards, take a look at our first set of 4 stickers, because we have an offer for you: help us get $3000 in pledges in the first 72 hours, and we'll add a FIFTH pride-themed sticker to all $30 and up tiers!
