Popular culture references to Sherlock Holmes information


Many writers make references to Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's famous literary creation, the detective Sherlock Holmes,[1] and these often become embedded within popular culture. While Holmes exists predominantly in the context of Victorian-era London, he has been mentioned in such outre contexts as the 22nd century[2] or hunting aliens or supernatural enemies.[3] These references are in addition to the innumerable passing references to Sherlock Holmes made in many literary and cinematic works, such as the labeling of a person as a "Sherlock", whether in reference to their intelligence (or in jest or sarcasm).[citation needed]
