TV show description:
This TV series gives a new take on the classic Arthur Conan Doyle characters. It’s a modern-day drama about a crime-solving duo that cracks the NYPD’s most impossible cases.
Following his fall from grace in London and a stint in rehab, eccentric detective Sherlock Holmes (Jonny Lee Miller) escapes to Manhattan where his wealthy father forces him to live with his worst nightmare — a sober companion, Doctor Joan Watson (Lucy Liu). She was a successful surgeon until she lost a patient and her license three years ago.
Watson views her current job as another opportunity to help people, as well as paying a penance. However, the restless Sherlock is nothing like her previous clients. He informs her that none of her expertise as an addiction specialist applies to him and he’s devised his own post-rehab regimen — resuming his work as a police consultant in New York City.
Watson finds she has no choice but to accompany her irascible new charge on his jobs. In the end, Sherlock finds her medical background helpful, and Watson realizes she has a knack for playing investigator.
Sherlock’s police contact is Captain Tobias “Toby” Gregson (Aidan Quinn). He knows, from previously working with Scotland Yard, that Sherlock is brilliant at closing cases, and welcomes him as part of the team.
Episode #154 — The Last Bow
Amidst Holmes and Watson’s battle with tech billionaire Odin Reichenbach, the investigators receive word of their old enemy and Sherlock’s former love, Jamie Moriarty.
First aired: August 15, 2019.
What do you think? Do you like the Elementary TV series on CBS? Do you think it should have ended or been renewed for season eight?
One of the best shows on tv. Please don’t cancel it.xn9QZ
Love the show acting and writing are top drawer and Lucy Liu is more beautiful than ever! Please renew!
Please keep the show. Loving it and Jonny Lee Miller.
Elementary is my favorite series.
From an marketing point of view, Elementary is unique and appeals to an audience who may not be a large as that of a typical series, but is made up of people who are more discerning and have higher than average incomes. Some companies have discovered that such people are more interested in the products and services that the business offers than the audience that prefers to watch something like “2 Broke Girls”.
I love watching Elemetary
I like elemtary it makes a person think.
Absolutely love this show. Another show for people with brains. Please keep it.
This is one of my all time favorite shows! Please Renew!!!
Keep this show!
I love this show, please renew
I love this show and have watched all episodes faithfully!! Love Johnny Lee as Sherlock! Please renew!!!
It’s “Elementary, my dear Watson,” it has to be renewed! It’s one of the very few shows my husband insists that I DVR! We watch them over and again!!
Story line well crafted. Roles delivered very effectively from primary to supporting characters. Nice balance to snarky comment humor and plot seriousness. Well worth the hour per week that will never be recovered in life.
Love it. Have never missed an episode.
I definitely think “Elementary” should be renewed. It’s a great show with a fantastic cast and story lines. I do think it should be moved out of the terrible Sunday night at 10 pm slot, into a more favorable weekday time slot.
