In this blog I am asked to write about Sherlock, a British television series starring Benedict Cumberbatch as Sherlock Holmes. This series which was written by Mark Gatiss, Steven Mofatt and Steve Thompson, was actually a modernise version of Sherlock Holmes which was created by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle where it was first introduced in the 1800s.

The first episode, "A Study in Pink" , loosely based upon the first Sherlock Holmes novel A Study in Scarlet, was written by Moffat and directed by Paul McGuigan. The story depicts the introduction of Holmes to Watson, and them entering a flatshare at Baker Street in London, and then their investigation into a series of deaths, initially believed to be suicides.
Based on this episode I was asked to determined whether Sherlock is a right brained or left brained.
For me Sherlock is more to a left brained. Because make analysis through logic, and he used analytic thoughts based on evidence that he acquire during the investigation. Other than that, Sherlock is also a right brained user where he use his creativity to beat the cab driver who is also the cause of other suicide cases. When he was asked to pick one of the bottle he randomly pick the bottle, which was unknown whether it is a good or a bad bottle.
In conclusion, Sherlock is a heavy left brained, but is also a light right brained.
yeah, man... you have the same brain like me, brotha!!!
ReplyDeleteHow he used logic thinking in solving his crime is only on the surface, if you look deeply, he is a right brained.
