The U.S. Sherlock

That doesn't exist...

I think they mean Elementary.

It's NOT "the US Sherlock" though.

If you mean Elementary, you will probably like it best if you don't think of it as "the US Sherlock". Let it exist on its own terms. They're different takes on modern-day Holmes and Watson, and are narratively and stylistically very different.

Elementary is slightly hindered by the long seasons of a network hit. Some of the cases are better than others, but this will be true of ANY mystery series ever. The best part of Elementary is the Holmes-Watson friendship. JLM and Lucy have a wonderful rapport, and the way it grows and changes from client/employee to partners and close friends over the first season is really nice.

And if you're at all interested in sober culture, either from personal experience or from outside the scene, it's the single best depiction of that circle that I have ever seen on US tv. It's hard, but it can be done and more people need to know that there's a net out there for them. ♥

And not only do Holmes and Watson have a great relationship with each other, they have a friendly and respectful relationship with the detectives they work with.

This Holmes is probably the most self-aware of any canon.
