This nearly two-hour Granada Television production of the most popular Sherlock Holmes tale--adapted from Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's 1902 novel--stars series regular Jeremy Brett as the Baker Street detective and Edward Hardwicke as his close ally, Dr. John Watson. A thrilling blend of detective yarn and Gothic horror, The Hound concerns the apparent return of an old curse upon the Baskerville family in the terrifying form of a gigantic killer hound. Fans of Hardwicke get an opportunity to see his Watson on a solo mission for part of this story, though Brett--easily the best of all screen actors to play the sleuth--is never far from the narrative. The supporting cast is very good, and the beast itself, revealed in a famously terrifying finale, is indeed a spooky revelation. --Tom Keogh

I bought the whole Granada series and watched several other episodes before this. Of course, everyone is familar with Rathbone's version of this story. While I haven't seen it for many years, I do remember the eerie setting and Basil's tight portryal of Holmes (nevermind Bruce's Watson).
So I had high hopes for this, but I was quite disappointed. Just watch "The Blue Carbuncle" or "The Reheaded League", or even "The Solitary Cyclist" and see what Jeremy Brett can do. Some of the early episodes ... Read More

Grenada Television's 1988 adaptation of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's classic Sherlock Holmes tale "The Hound of the Baskervilles" is an atmospheric and extremely effective thriller. Jeremy Brett, already suffering from the illness that would take his life a few years later, is superb as the famous sleuth. He is very ably assisted by Edward Hardwicke as the stalwart Dr. Watson.
As the movie opens, a elderly gentleman standing outside a mansion and apparently awaiting an appointment at dusk, ... Read More

For many years I insisted that Basil Rathbone was the one, true Holmes. However, after watching Brett's performances over and over, there can be little doubt that Brett IS/WAS Holmes! He nailed the mannerisms, the quirks, the arrogance, the quick insights, and those over-the-top nuances of Sherlock Holmes...what fun and how perfect! While many drawings and portraits seem to favor the profile of Rathbone, Brett captured the very essence of who Sherlock Holmes was meant to be. The Brett performances are ... Read More

First off: though my general comments will be focused on this, Granada's "Hound of the Baskervilles" starring Jeremy Brett, much of what I say might well go for most British programming I have viewed (comedies and dramas.)
I find the dismissals of this production as inferior- lacking in suspense,drama, entertainment value, quality writing, and even quality acting- to be stupefying, and indicative of the lack of taste and quality within most American entertainment, and the lack of brain power and ... Read More

For awhile I was meaning to see Jeremy Brett's interpretation of Sherlock Holmes, so several days ago I rented 'The Hound of the Baskervilles', which is an episode from 'The Return of Sherlock Holmes' TV series made by Granada Television. It was made in 1988, so I was expecting the production values to be on par with the 'Poirot' series from 1989 starring David Suchet as another ingenious sleuth, but this incarnation of the master of detectives hasn't aged very well.
Jeremy Brett is excellent ... Read More
