Note: this is a spoiler-free advance review of the first episode of Houdini and Doyle, which will air on Fox tonight at 9pm EST.
To paraphrase an iconic Henry Ford quote, Fox will give you any kind of TV show you want, as long as it's a police procedural. A few months after debuting Lucifer, a show about the ex-Lord of Hell assisting the LAPD, Fox now has yet another twist on an age-old formula to offer viewers. Houdini & Doyle draws inspiration from the short-lived but very real friendship between legendary stage magician Harry Houdini and Sherlock Holmes creator Sir Arthur Conan Doyle. The idea being that, long before the two had their very public falling-out, they joined forces to help Scotland Yard solve unexplained murder cases. The show is equal parts The Knick, Law & Order and The X-Files. If only it were as amazing as that combination sounds on paper.
