I love the series but I could tell Steven Moffat had a hand in the production with Holmes and Watson being played as an ambiguously gay duo.

I have to admit...I hate this interpretation of Holmes and Watson. I do like the Downey version, however.

They don’t seem gay at all to me. Just English.

I had convinced myself I was going to hate this series, but I love the modern take on it. And Watson is cast as straight, and Holmes as more of an intellectual eunuch, in that he has an indifference to sex. He seemed to be attracted to the woman in the last episode, but was attracted more to her intellect than her sex appeal.

Anyway, I think it's an interesting show, and I did notice that some things did not make sense in the beginning, and now I know why.
