bluecastleWell I watched Elementary last night and lived to tell about it. I liked it more than I thought I would. Though I kind of wish they had just changed all the names and not tried to make it a Sherlock thing. Jonny and Lucy do some really nice stuff in their scenes together, but they're NOT [Holmes & Watson]. It's like an AU Sherlock hurt/comfort gen fic.
I liked that it's Gregson and not Lestrade.
But like others have said, the strengths that are there are in the performances and you can't keep a Sherlock story going w/o a cracking good mystery. But perhaps it'll manage to walk some fine line between quirky and dependable crime drama and managed to suit the masses.
However this Holmes and this Watson are prickly enough and wounded enough to keep me watching for a bit to see how that all shakes out at least.
But dammit, now I gotta go find out how the Project Runway voting went. Some of those baby clothes were damn ugly.
