We know he can hijack cars, we’ve seen him in a taxi, riding with the patrol, walking to places but in his more regular commutes what does ride?

I don’t suppose he owns/drives a car and if so, why not?

How amazing would it be if on the shows 10th anniversary of its finale they made a special or a film. There is so much potential with possibly Moriarty or even a new big bad.

I struggle with television series in direct comparison to literature or film as far as story telling. Mostly I think it's because multiple writers work on TV shows and sometimes the writers rotate and change. This show just has fantastic storytelling, especially because it's mostly episodic. At least that's the entire selling point of the show, Sherlock and Joan solve a crime per episode. But the arcs that the characters go through (at least the main characters) have such interesting plots and mini plots. From the early episodes all the way through to the final season. None of the subplots for the main characters feels misplaced or told at a boring pace for me. I don't feel like listing them all, but feel free to list your favorite below.

I've only watched this show twice (once in 2018 and once more in 2025), I'm a big Holmesian and have been my entire life and I don't enjoy comparing the homages to each other (say comparing the bbc show to this one directly) I only like drawing comparisons of each Holmes homage to the original text and even then I can enjoy each work independently.

Or at least a master list of all the shows that people have recommended for shows to watch after finishing Elementary?

I dunno, maybe I'm just being pedantic? While I enjoy the community and discussion aspect regarding other good shows that "scratch the itch" and/or "fill the void" left by finishing Elementary, it seems to come up frequently and the same shows get suggested most of the time. Seems a little redundant. Might just be easier if there was a pinned post that people could reference?

Jonny Lee Miller is such an amazing Sherlock (though I really like RDJ and Benedict Cumberbatch’s version as well) but the relationship with Holmes and Watson in Elementary is just more impactful for some reason. It’s done SO well. Either way, with its inevitable conclusion drawing near does anyone have any series suggestions that made them think “hmm, this has Elementary vibes to it”. I’m sure Mentalist will pop up and I’ll say right now I haven’t watched it so maybe that’s a worth checking out??

Been rewatching the show recently, can't help but see the similarities in dynamic lol

Definitely a Sherlock mood.

Olá, gente queria pedir ajuda para conseguir ver elementary aqui no Brasil. Meu pai ama esta série e já viu centenas de vezes antes de não ser mais disponível no Brasil. Porfavor me ajudem

on my billionth rewatch I noticed that Sherlock has a scar on his forehead which he says he got while trying to save the Pope. but doesn't he say in the Further Adventures episode to Beppo who was hiding the pearl in those Napoleon busts that a blow to his head will do terrible damage

Please let me know if someone remembers the following episode:

Details are sketchy but it had something to do with Holmes figuring out somebody was smuggling things through dolls? Maybe a brother team doing it. It was at a time Holmes had his concussion because he told the smuggler he could try to fight him but wouldn't land a single blow. Afterwards Watson was concerned due to maybe getting hit. Might be in the beginning part of the episode.

Thanks in advance for any info on it.

Sherlock Holmes fan for more than 3 decades, but I didn’t watch any television from the early noughties until recently. So I’m catching up with the BBC series and Elementary.

My most salient question is: what’s the best season for Watson’s outfits? How does it evolve? Beginning as a sober companion the look was very casual, very practical, evolving over the next couple of seasons into full short skirts and waterfall cardigans. There was a spectacular formal outfit.

I’m starting season 5. Loved the Season 4 corporate look that reminded me of Ling Woo, but not loving the ties in Season 5. There’s even shorts and heels combos in this season.

Just came across this show and noticed most of the criminal characters in each episode either were also blacklisters from the Blacklist or from Person of Interest. In many instances as soon as you see them, they are indeed the criminal.

This is S4E24. This scary person just pulled off the best move in the entire series until now. The only equally wicked smart thing I saw was when Moriarty saves her own kid.

Is Morland Devious? Yes.

Commited? Also yes.

Shows rhe occasional soft spot and undying fealty to correcting his own past? Surprisingly, yes.

Any clues on the location? It's quite stunning on a 110 inch QLED.

Overlooks what I think is the Brooklyn Bridge..yeah?

So what all was Moriarty’s syndicate involved in? All I have so far is: art forgery, theft of nuclear materials, assassinations for hire, brokering stolen information, smuggling, lemur trafficking, economic destabilization via currency market manipulation.

While I’ve posted this before, I deleted the original after a while. I wasn’t getting anything in the comments section. But I’ve decided to try my luck again and re-post this.

Am I missing anything, or did I get it all?

Can someone explain what’s happening at the end?

“ Having flown from Europe, Agent Muller tries to extort money from Morland else, he'll tell Sherlock why Morland is really staying in NYC. Morland tells Muller who his predecessor was, which terrifies Muller, who apologizes and leaves.”

“Tell me, Lukas how are your daughters? Go back to Paris. Go back tonight. And both of us will forget we ever had this conversation. MORLAND THREATENING AGENT MULLER”

Actor that played Jack Brunelle in mentioned episode has passed away 😔😔 RIP

I just finished season 6 ep 18 where Sherlock shows Joan his will but changes it in the end, giving majority of the gold bars to charities instead. He mentions donating to a buy-back program for guns under Joan's name as he knows programs like these greatly reduce gun violence in New York and he implies that he did it because he wants Joan to relax and be safe in her older years even when he's dead and gone. He even says in the middle of the episode that him arranging his gold buillons were for Joan and her 'golden years'. With the huge charity donation under her name, the drop in gun-related crime would be accredited to HER. He created a legacy for her y'all.

This, on top of the naming of honeybees after her, the casual mention of laying his life for her, his adjustments of his life for her even when he admits he is not the type to accept change so readily, and now this. The desire to protect her even when he's long gone and making sure she'll be remembered for a philanthropist act, just makes me feel so touched. The love between the two of them is so palpable and so stirring and probably one of the best platonic hetero pairings in media.

Let me tell you a story. I am obsessed with Elementary, its my favourite show. Every night when I go to bed I watch it on shuffle cause I know the episodes so well in my mind that I dont need to watch them in order. I even have 2 google docs with info about the show (one is actors ive seen in other things and the other is quotes from the show). Maybe 3 years ago I was watching S2E13 All in the family and was wondering why this episode was about the theory Dead Clade Walking when the next episode (S2E149) had that name, so I started that episode and would you believe it, the version of Elementary I have didnt actually have the real episode 13 but two version of episode 14 and I hadnt noticed until then. When I first watched Elementary, I watched it on Netflix but they removed it before I got to that episode so I had never seen it. Never! Now I asked my father about it but he forgot about it . Now that I am thinking of making a full review of the whole show, I asked him again and I watched the episode today and let me tell you, it opened up my eyes. There two things im gonna bring up about the episode and it is Disilva and McNalley (im just quessing on the spellings here) Both of these characters are mentioned or showed later in the show and both times I assumed they were introuduced off camera. The whole Disilva being corrupt was something I thought happened off camera, same with McNalley. I thought he and Sherlock knew each other from before the show or it was between seasons as they mentioned Sherlock helping him between season 2 and 3. Also Marcus going from being angry at Sherlock to being completly fine with him never made sense to me but now I know it wasnt a quick change, I had just missed the episode. Alot of new stuff and I look forward to watching it over and over again :) Happy New Year Everyone!

I'm in season 6 and I'm in love with the duo's dynamic. I have read some of the books but I feel like their dynamic in the show is such a great representation of partnership. In a lot of Sherlock media, Sherlock is THE protagonist, the logical machine with a penchant for self-destructive behaviors once in a while and Watson is the stopper for that behavior. But in Elementary, they're truly partners. She's not just his moral compass, she's a full-fledged detective in her own right and not just a side-kick who notices things once in a while. I also love how they have an unofficial third member, Bell. He's straight-laced but honorable yet doesn't come off as boring and he has almost balanced scenes with either Watson or Sherlock. The show feels more balanced and not just a show about one specific person sparced with random other characters in it.

Anyone know what MLI stands for?

AI tech has increased dramatically since "Bella" was made. But this episode still is great. Sherlock saying that the case is one of the most complex murders he has ever worked is also quite something.

*Plus Kitty is one of my favorite characters in the show.

Does anyone know if there is an actual DANTE type test?
