==== "A Study in Pink" ====
In the series premiere, Mycroft arranges a meeting with John Watson, one of his brother's recent associates but does not reveal he is Sherlock's brother. Mycroft asks John to spy on Sherlock because he "worries about him, constantly." However, the ex-army doctor refuses to accept the offer. Despite being turned down, Mycroft re-diagnosed John from his therapist and insists he does not have post-traumatic stress disorder and instead likes being with Sherlock because he enjoys the excitement. Before he walks away, Mycroft insists that John should fire his therapist and that he has to pick a side. He has his assistant, Anthea, take John back home. 
He later appears at the crime scene after Sherlock was saved by John. It is revealed that Mycroft is Sherlock's brother, much to Dr. Watson's surprise. As John and Sherlock walked away, Mycroft told Anthea to escalate the surveillance on both John and Sherlock.

Mycroft appears in the series 1 finale, where Sherlock's and John's flat gets blasted by James "Jim" Moriarty. He approaches his brother with a case in investigating the murder of Andrew West and the disappearance of the Bruce-Partington missile project plans. However, Sherlock declined it, leading the elder Holmes brother turned the case over to John instead. Mycroft got impatient with his brother and Watson.
