History YMMV / SherlockS02E02TheHoundsOfBaskerville

** A reference is made to Sherlock losing a game of TabletopGame/{{Clue}}do because he insists that Dr Black committed suicide. Later that year, after "[[Recap/SherlockS02E03TheReichenbachFall The Reichenbach Fall]]" was broadcast, a ''Sherlock'' themed version of Cluedo was released in which the victim was Jim Moriarty - who [[spoiler: in the series definitely ''did'' commit suicide]].

* {{Narm}}: The opening scene. The way it's shot, the cheesy pounding music, and especially the young Henry's scream. "AAAAAAAAAAAAAH!"

* CompleteMonster: Bob Frankland. Conducted human experiments that drove the test subjects insane with the CIA, and after transferring back to England continues to work on it in secret. When Henry's father, a close friend of his, finds out he kills him without remorse and leaves his nine year old son orphaned and traumatized for the rest of his life, and ''continues'' to drug him with the compound to drive Henry insane to the point of almost committing suicide just so his crimes could never be discovered.

* TheWoobie: Henry. His mother died when he was very young, then ''he watched his father DIE'' by the hands of Dr. Frankland, but he was manipulated into thinking it was a monsterous Hound, becoming an orphan from the age of seven, which left HUGE mental scars on him, so much so that everybody takes him as mentally disturbed. And he apparently doesn't have much of a lovelife or any nearby relatives. And what's worse is Dr. Frankland is STILL DOING IT TO HIM until Sherlock and Watson solve the case, and Henry almost commits ''suicide'' over it. No wonder, when he finally learned the truth, he tried to attack Frankland. It's amazing he even survived the episode.

* MoralEventHorizon: [[spoiler: Bob Frankland crossed it by beating Henry's father to death, ''right in front of Henry'' (leaving him an orphan in the process), because Henry's father found Frankland testing the abandoned Project Hound drug. Henry was left emotionally and mentally traumatised and unstable and had to attend therapy as an adult.]]

* HarsherInHinsight: [[spoiler:The whole reveal that the hound was not a dog but a man is incredibly similar to the situation regarding Victor and Redbeard in "[[Recap/SherlockS04E03TheFinalProblem The Final Problem]]". Henry couldn't cope with the trauma, so he rationalised it into a dog killing his father, in the same way as Sherlock imagining it was his beloved dog that had died, not his best friend, as he had always wanted a dog but due to his father being allergic to them, was never allowed one.]]
