Holmes and Watson will be back solving cases next season. CBS has renewed the Elementary TV show for a fourth season.
A contemporary update on the Sir Arthur Conan Doyle characters, Elementary follows eccentric detective Sherlock Holmes (Jonny Lee Miller) and Doctor Joan Watson (Lucy Liu) as they help solve crimes in New York. Aidan Quinn and Jon Michael Hill co-star.
The series has taken a big hit in the ratings this year. The third season is averaging a 1.29 rating in the 18-49 demographic with 7.44 million viewers. That’s down by 25% in the demo and down by 15% in total viewers.
Still, it seemed a certainty that Elementary would be renewed for a fourth year. The next season’s installments will give the crime drama enough episodes for a potentially lucrative syndication package.
What do you think? Do you like the Elementary TV show? Do you think the fourth season should be its last? Would you like to see any changes made to the show — to help attract better ratings?
Elementary is an intelligent well made series that challenges the viewer to think and not just sit there as a passive viewer. The action is how to use your brain to figure out how, why the murders are being committed and how to go about getting the murderer nailed. It is not for those that are looking for a razzmatazz action murder mystery.
I love the series.. Its smart funny and just good tv. There is plenty of stupid to watch these days. Please do not cancel
Not much to say, other than to please keep this amazing show alive and well. I love all mysteries of Sherlock Homes and no better way to watch one weekly over waiting years for Sherlock to come to a theatre near you. This show is brilliant, with great writing of plots and two talented actors that bring these plots to life. Looking forward to seeing Jonny and Lucy around for another season and wishing for many more !!
I hope the show continues since I like it so much I hope they don’t cancel it
Love the show one of the best around watson and sherlock should not get involved romantically at all it would spoil the entire show and will not have the same watchable quality
Have and am a avid fan of Elementary. So happy to know it will go into its 4th Season. I am awaiting for 3rd Season to be in the stores I, of course have the former two. My opinion, the plot should develop to Holmes and Watson being In love. You indicated as much in many scenes, Holms caring so much about her, his brother telling him how much he was in love with her. The Kitty girl did not go well with me. Watson falling for Holms’ brother truly unbelievable! Good plot the brother, good actor but with Watson;… Read more »
I love this show. I just wish he talked slower and she would speak louder. So glad it was renewed.
I LOVE THIS TV SHOW & SO DOES MY HUSBAND. I myself was also violently abused, victimized & kept by a man for 5 years. He ended up breaking my neck & I was only 39 years old. I now have 17 one & half inch screws in my neck w/ a metal cage & w/ my entire neck bone fused together w/ bone from my hips & cadavers. He was a genious to social media & kept me as a prisoner inside of his apartment by using extremely high tech webcams & he was able to monitor me via’… Read more »
Enjoy “elementary ” so much. Female Watson is a great twist. Hadn’t watched network TV in years until my sin told me about elementary. Now I sad I have to wait until bext season to view. Happy for fourth season.
i love the show. I wIsh it was on Fridays.
I am VERY fond of Elementary, and definitely hope that it will not only be scheduled for its
4th season, but that other people come to fully appreciate it!
I thoroughly enjoy Elementary and look forward to each episode. I’m a 61 year old woman and love the contemporary theme of the show. It’s good to see Sherlock has made the transformation across the Atlantic.
Love this show. Never miss.
I am glad to hear that Elementary fans won’t be left with the very depressing last episode of season 3 as the end of the series. This has happened with other series & I don’t think it is particularly respectful of the fans who follow the really good shows faithfully. I think Elementary is a well written show with each episode showcasing an interesting intricate mystery. The actors are top-notch with Jonny Lee Miller leading the way as a very eccentric Sherlock Holmes. I also strongly suspect the ratings would be much better if the show were moved off Thurs.… Read more »
I like the Thursday night slot!
Elementary is one of the best shows that I have seen on television in many years. The writing is excellent with intricate plots and realistic character development.
