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?
Please keep Elementary,=I love the show Kathy
I love the show & the cast. Moving to England? Forever? Kind of expensive. Must throw Gregson’s daughter under the bus?
Definitely one of the best shows on TV. I hope it continues for a long time.
I am in agreement with the person below! Elementary is a dynamic show and well worth renewing! In this time of TV junk, it is a quality show where two friends can have love for each other and it not have to be amorous. They work well together. They play off each other flawlessly and Sherlock’s facial expressions are PRICELESS!!!
I really like this TV series and I think it should continue for several more seasons … at least another 6 seasons ! This is one of the very best TV series currently produced ! Great actors !
I think it was a brilliant transition to them working in London. New York was played out! I hope they continue the series in London!
Don’t cancel Elementary it really is an interesting show. I love it!!!
I really really love this series, Elementary..
Please don’t cancel the show. Really enjoy it and the characters greatly.
Elementary can’t be cancelled. Best show ever.
Love this . Especially Joan and Sherlocks relationship. Please do not cancel
Please put back on a decent viewing night. Mondays are a killing factor, even for decent shows. Elementary is a great show. Do it some justice. DO NOT CANCEL, Please!
Love the show like the Holmes Watson partnership. Enjoy the twist of each show.
Enjoy the show everyday – watching it on many channels, the old and the new shows
Please don’t cancel the show. It’s a bright spot in an otherwise dismal TV wasteland.
AMEN! It is a wonderful show that needs another ten years to finally wear out.
Ditto.
