Sherlock

Although the Sherlock Holmes stories are quite amusing and Sherlock is a brilliant character, don't forget that he wasn't really a good guy. He was more of an anti-hero in the sense that he smoked tobacco and opium, and he was rude, and a jerk to Watson several times. Not exactly the type of guy I'd want my son associated with, personally! (Not hating on Sherlock, he's a cool character, really.)
