I like the use of captions to

  • show (some of) Sherlock's observations
  • show text messages and similar, so the camera is pointed at a person rather than a device

It may seem a bit gimmicky at first but I'd like to see it become more common. (Maybe it will as more and more people become used to bits of text popping up over people and things in video games and, eventually, augmented reality.)

I thought the whole texts above people's heads thing was refreshing.
