Jalaal Hartley

Every Sherlock Villain, Ranked From Worst To Best
Image
Lord Moran is an ineffectual villain in Sherlock, functioning more as a narrative device than a true antagonist. Dr. Bob Frankland is a boring villain in Sherlock, lacking the depth and grandeur of his creation, the hallucinated hounds. However, his murder plot is well-produced. Jonathan Small, the Mayfly Man, is an underdeveloped character in Sherlock, but he displays cruelty and cunning in one of the show's best mysteries.

Sherlock features a diverse range of villains, varying from brilliant to bizarre. The BBC adaptation of Arthur Conan Doyle's eponymous detective, Sherlock depicts many creepy criminals over its four seasons. Some of these villains are highly memorable, while others are less so.

Sherlock stars Benedict Cumberbatch as Sherlock Holmes and Martin Freeman as Dr. John Watson, but impressive guest stars also bolster the modernized adaptation. Many bring Conan Doyle's infamous rogue's gallery to life, capturing the villains with varying degrees of success.
