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?
Elementary is one of the best shows on television, great cast and terrific writing.
We were disappointed the writers chose to end this season with Sherlock getting high on heroin, even though they had found his friend who had been kidnapped.
Did they really need to end it like that?
Love the show. PLEASE RENEW.
Totally agree with commenter, Glenn Morely, from his comment on March 16,2015……that Elementary is OUR MOST FAVORITE show on network TV. CBS would be fools to EVEN CONSIDER cancellation!!!!! I’m assuming they are NOT thinking that way, and the show will be happily renewed. WE LOVE<LOVE<LOVE this show!
CBS should renew this show. Good story lines, scripts and acting.
Excellent beat ! I wish to apprentice while you amend your web site, how could i
subscribe for a blog web site? The account helped me a applicable
deal. I have been tiny bit acquainted of this your broadcast offered bright transparent idea
Love, love, love this show! Never miss it!
Love this show !!!One of the best shows on tv!!!!Please keep it on the air !
Is this show going to be canceled? I hope not. This show has some great inventive ways to commit crimes. I just wish they had a good bad guy on the show.
Elementary is GREAT I hope that we find Sherlock and Watson crossing paths with Moriaty real soon. Also I hope that unlike the somewhat similar Bones and Castle and recently ended Mentalist, they do not get into a romantic relationship
This is one of the best shows on TV. Why would you want to cancel it? I have been noticing that intelligent shows seem to get cancelled quicker than shows that appeal to idiots Too bad thy seem to outnumber us. I feel it is a cleaver adaptation of the original series.
Whats a matter with Mycroft? I will admit Kitty was a bit of a drag on the show but Mycroft at least brings up tension for Sherlock. At least he doesn’t bring up the fact that Sherlock was a drug addict.
I agree that Elementary is a great show but please, please keep away from the drug story and keep to the mysteries. I think this is a great show.
oh bring back more good villains!!!
Elementary is one of the best shows on TV! Love Jonny Lee Miller and Lucy Liu and their symbiotic interplay.
We can do without Kitty or Mycroft. They take away from the focus of the show and add nothing but unnecessary tension.
Elementary is smart, clever, crisp, and edgy in a nice way. LOVE it!!!
Please keep it going!!!!!! 🙂
Love, Love, LOVE Elementary!!!!! Jonny Lee Miller is SUPERB!!!!! (Needs a better, not such a lunatic, haircut, but whatever). Lucy Liu, who I was determined to hate is Fantastic!!! She is wonderful, insightful, patient, and I love the interplay between her and Sherlock. They have a nice symbiotic relationship; she picks up in areas where he’s weaker. They make a great team.
I’m glad Mycroft is gone, as well as Kitty. They took away from the show and didn’t add anything except unnecessary tension.
Elementary is smart, it’s clever, it’s crisp, and edgy. Please keep it going! 🙂
I have to ask everyone, is anyone getting sick of knowing Sherlock had a bad drug habit? Seriously, the last episode of Sherlock I thought I was watching a bad episode of Monk or murder she wrote. I love a good mystery but the last episode I was bored. Please give me some villains.
Love both the characters and story lines – have watched since inception! Keeps the viewer intrigued and trying to find the clues…Do Not Cancel!!!
Last night I was scratching my head on what CBS is doing. Yes I like looking at half naked women but I also like elementary and the how the show throws you a curve ball of mystery.
I just hope this show isn’t canceled and keeps throwing more crazy stories out.
