(CBS)
Set your ratings-based deductions aside. The Elementary TV show has been renewed for season six on on CBS. The modern-day Sherlock Holmes TV series adaptation has evaded the Television Vulture, for yet another season.
Set in New York City, Elementary follows detective Sherlock Holmes (Jonny Lee Miller) and Dr. Joan Watson (Lucy Liu). The CBS cast also includes Aidan Quinn as Captain Thomas Gregson and Jon Michael Hill as Detective Marcus Bell. Together, they investigate the Big Apple’s trickiest cases.

Love this show!!!!
I am really like the elementary series film . I just expected the show can be continued
Love the show! I do feel, however, that it would benefit greatly from a different time slot.
I love the show . You need to give it a better time slot.
We like this very much because the characters and writers keep the show very interesting and keep you guessing what’s next.
So glad Elementary is being renewed. It is my favorite show. I thought I would hate it when it 1st came out, however it very inventive and intriguing. Thank You CBS, keep em coming!
Though still scheduled in an unfortunate “break-down” Sunday “lane” after Madame Secretary, I am thrilled to have it back as one of my most looked-for and watched series in the Fall ! Ingenious (and intelligent) written plots, sophisticated detective work, great interacting characters, thanks, CBS for a Season 6 !
Very happy it has been renewed!! Intelligent plots and great chemistry amongst the cast. One of those shows that do not pretend everything will be alright. Can’t wait for it to come back!
