Six months after the death of his friend and partner Sherlock Holmes at the hands of Moriarty, Dr. John Watson 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.

Craig Mathieson The Age (Australia) May 4, 2026
2.5/5
It was something of a mess, and lacked House’s sense of mischief, but I did occasionally appreciate the show’s smash-it-together ambition. Go to Full Review Jack Seale Guardian Feb 19, 2026
3/5
As a House-style medical case-of-the-week show, Watson works well. Most of its charms are embodied by Chestnut as the titular doctor-detective. Go to Full Review Joel Keller Decider Oct 14, 2025
Watson feels like a show that just isn’t confident enough in its version of Dr. Watson and his team to let them stand on their own. Go to Full Review Read all reviews

I Give it a five stars its got a good twist and despite the bad reviews and so called low viewers I like it and it is binge watch worthy plz make more I cant stop watching it plz I really like the show. Plz😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭 See more Shamica E. @Shamica.egins Apr 12, 2026 I enjoyed watching this show. The different twist and turns in this season left me shocked. This cast have been so interesting and unique. See more Marty v @mvdbosch Dec 23, 2025 The show is a mix of two shows. One is that of a medical mystery show, which is great. The other is of an ongoing storyline of throwing in nonsense like Moriarty, the Sherlock then the brother etc. All this garbage totally derails the show and makes it borderline unbearable. If they just stuck with medical mystery, and perhaps some character side stories for a little flavour, that would be grand. Drop the rest, as I am losing appetite fast. See more Read all reviews
