I thought there would be more naysayers. Not because I don't like it. I do. We watched it from the beginning. I think I prefer the BBC Sherlock but they are really so different ... I enjoy both.TracyKhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08303342674824383688noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3185294584889963228.post-50354739999897067522013-10-12T16:20:16.879-04:002013-10-12T16:20:16.879-04:00Welcome to the Elementary Fan Club, Nan.

Not better than Sherlock, but they're totally different beasts. Sherlock attempts to take the actual stories and adapt them, and while Elementary kind of does, I don't feel the connection as much.

Treat this as if the characters were newly conceived. It's the only way. But once you do, you'll be rewarded.
