Well, this wasn't as bad as I expected, not that it's good.  As the title perhaps suggests, Holmes is embalmed in honey after falling at the Falls (and even someone like me who hasn't actually read more than one AC Doyle story would go, "Uh oh," when hearing the name Reichenbach), and then reanimated in the early 2100s, to help a female cop and her robot Watson solve crimes.  The animation combines late '90s limited with late '90s early CGI, for the worst of two worlds, but I've certainly seen uglier cartoons (most of them deliberately so, Ren & Stimpy et al.). 

Robert Brousseau and Scott Heming co-directed.  This show incidentally is American-British-French.  My library puts it under "Sherlock," but in Children's DVDs rather than TV.
