im so glad almost all detective media seems to recognise the very important fact that being a detective is inherently homosexual

if there's one thing about classic literary detectives it's that they are not conventionally attractive. doyle told sidney paget to stop drawing holmes so pretty. christie was like "let me introduce you to this short pudgy balding man who is retirement age and i hate him." sayers compares wimsey to maggots on literally the FIRST PAGE
i love it. i love them. stop casting hot people in these roles. we need our detectives to be Charmingly Weird-Looking

My best friend came up with this exchange for our dream Muppets and Poirot movie and I had to do something with it.

knives out creates a true, classic-like detective in benoit blanc because he is genuinely motivated to help people in a way that other modern detectives often aren't. sherlock holmes and poiroit (the orignals) are beloved and have stood the test of time not just because they are good detectives who can solve mysteries, it's because they are kind. they help others, and they always help the right person to win. classic detective stories knew how to get this right -- look at a scandal in belgravia, look at the adventures of the clapham cook. both cases have the detective ultimately invested in the welfare of the poor and the vulnerable and the people who need their help above that of the rich and the powerful, and make it clear that their investment is to reach a satisfying conclusion to the mystery according to their morals and the truth, not according to their employer. and even if this isn't shown in every story, it's always made very clear that these morals, that this kindness, underpins each and every action they take.
you can write all the bbc sherlock and the house md stories you want, and they'll be good and enjoyable to all who watch them. you can even write your detectives with a little more heart, like jonny lee miller's sherlock. but you won't create a detective who is truly great, only ever a pale imitation of a one.
in placing the desire to actually help, to fix and not just solve, at the heart of the detective character again in benoit blank, knives out has identified what truly makes a detective character great: his empathy.
