He's best when he isn't likeable at all in my opinion. It's what makes his dynamic good.

Downey Jr. played him insufferable (correctly). Cumberbatch did as well. And the late Yuko Takeuchi did too in the genderswapped jdrama.

It's very amusing watching him and Aya detective-spar just immediately upon meeting.
