Thank you for telling me about Perception, anon, I watched the first episode last night and loved it! Can't wait to watch more!

But yeah, Elementary makes me so angry/sad/upset. I watched the trailer last week and felt a part of my soul die. Watson isn't a veteran anymore (because it's not like women are in the military nowadays ... oh wait), her medical license has been revoked (?!?!?!??!), and oh yeah, she's a woman because having two dudes hang out and solve crimes is too gay for American audiences? Do they know how popular the BBC version, with its HoYay and FoeYay, has been, even with *gasp* American audiences?
Why call her "Watson" if she's not even Watson anymore?

Why couldn't they have made Sherlock a woman too? And Lestrade? I'd have absolutely loved that, genderswapping the entire cast. But blatantly trying to avoid homoeroticism and get a "sexy exotic non-military fem!Watson" for American audiences is insulting. As an American viewer, that's not what I want to see and I'm going to avoid the show like the plague. I feel bad for the people working on the show because it honestly doesn't look like it's going to last very long.
