I've never watched Sherlock BBC but I've been a huge fan of the ACD canon and the Granada TV series for years and here's the simple truth, Elementary sucks.

I WANTED to like it, I liked the idea, like Liu, love Miller and it's terrible.

Crappy writing, crappy plots and let's not even get started on the fact that Holmes is always wrong, well, at least a couple of times an episode. I don't know who this bloke is but he's not Sherlock.

If they'd just used different names, it would be adequate, I suppose, but as a version of the Holmes stories? Utter unmitigated crap.

I know what you mean. I went it with not terribly high expectations but wanting to like it and... yeah, it disappointed.

Jonny Lee Miller's performance has actually grown on me, but Lucy Liu is flat as a board and they've really fucked up the character of Watson. Holmes and Watson are supposed to be friends and investigate cases together, but she's more like a nurse type who's off dealing with her own stuff or trying to get to the bottom of Holmes' personal life and it's boring. I'm liking Jon Michael Hill's character. If they got rid of Lucy Liu and just put him in the Watson role, and also worked more on making the mysteries not being totally obvious, I think the show would have a lot of potential. I'm afraid that they're going to go down the soap opera route and become all about Holmes's tragic past though.
