00:00Welcome to the behind-the-scenes of Watson.
00:07Watson is a show in the Sherlock Holmes universe.
00:11It's a medical show with an investigative spine.
00:14So basically we are doctors who solve medical mysteries.
00:18We are doc-tectives.
00:20Watson takes place after the death of Sherlock Holmes.
00:22And Sherlock Holmes has bestowed a pretty significant grant to Watson to start a rare
00:28disorder clinic.
00:29I watched my father die of FFI, Dr. Watson.
00:33It took my grandfather before that, and I know it's going to kill me too.
00:37All of this is based on real cases, real science, and I think that that's fascinating.
00:41It's the best lab in the country, Dr. Lubbock.
00:43I'm sure you'll figure it out.
00:45The canon is always very much with us.
00:48The life that Watson had with Sherlock is not done with him.
00:51An archvillain named Moriarty whose hands make the shape of an M, that sounds fictional.
00:54Did you ever see his face?
00:56I don't know.
00:57There are many familiar characters.
00:58His closest confidant is a man named Shinwell Johnson, who, by the way, has definitely killed
01:02people before.
01:03And these new characters are just fascinating as well.
01:08He has a team of four younger doctors who are kind of his protégés.
01:12I play Stevens and Adam Croft, who are identical twins.
01:16Each one of them has a little thing that piques an interest that Watson has, and that's why
01:21he brought them into the clinic.
01:22Watson sees the whole world as an experiment in genetic medicine, and we're just a part
01:26of it.
01:27We have Mary, and she is John Watson's estranged wife, but she's also the medical director
01:35of the hospital.
01:36Morris Chestnut is brilliant.
01:38He's an absolute gem.
01:40He's on point, and he's kind and giving and inquisitive.
01:44The game's afoot.
01:45We have a new case.
01:46Who wants to amaze us with their insights?
01:49You don't have to be a fan of Sherlock Holmes to enjoy Watson, and I think that's the beauty
01:52of it.
01:53When people see the show, they really get engrossed in the characters and the story.
01:57We have humor.
01:58We have drama.
01:59We have action.
02:00There's a little bit of everything.
