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. DO NOT CANCEL
I love it but cannot find a definitive source of when it will return. 2017 has come and gone. Whats the deal-e-o?
Love Lucy Liu and jonny lee as a team. I thought in the beginning they’d eventually be together but I guess its not in their cards and maybe its better that way because usually when two ppl that are in a show together have a relationship ppl get disappointed in what they expected per say to how they’d evolve as a couple. I think after all this it would be kind of strange but they’d have to carefully & slowly get to a bud if they were to blossom into a couple. Okay so Im love elementary so much. Id… Read more »
PLEASE do not cancel– this is and has been a great show with great actors.
My husband and I have been waiting for the 2018 return of the show and
look forward to the ongoing mysteries, surprises, and solves.
This is good television. The writing is strong and the performances excellent. I hope they will renew and keep it going. It is refreshing and different.
I really like elementary though at first I wasn’t so sure if it was to work. However even changing some key elements of “original Sherlock Holmes ” was risky there were many good episodes.There are many things that could be done to renew interest.However we now are in January and still no Elementary? I think that could be a real shame for CBS as they have fewer hour long good drama shows left,There are still some strong ones . And changing the night to Sunday is costly just like it was to CSI and others. It is interrupted by football… Read more »
