The newest consultant that the NYPD can't do without is none other than the modern Sherlock Holmes. This Sherlock is straight out of rehab and even has a side kick sober-coach Dr. Watson, played by Lucy Liu.
Sounds like a formula for success and it's not a bad show either. The pilot was entertaining, fast paced and clever. Unfortunately this new Sherlock is 100% nervous energy and got on my nerves after a few minutes. And Lucy Liu? She didn't beat up anybody which seems like a waste of talent.
Elementary should pull good ratings the first couple of weeks. The only question is will they get viewers hooked before they get too annoyed with this Sherlock. I will be the latter.
I guess I'm the only one who is annoyed. Renewed.
