Yes yes yes. They're so different there isn't a real comparison base, which I'm glad of, because they are two very different forms of Sherlock.

And I loved Lucy Liu's Watson, how she was just as smart as Sherlock and flat out didn't put up with his bullshit.

She played it perfectly. I wasn't sure where she would go, but she did it logically; she's a professional and acts professional when ti's about her work, and acts like a normal person when it's not. It's obvious, yes, but the way she snaps between them is fantastic.
