I am a long time Sherlock Holmes fan. It seems the closer they stick to Conan Doyle the better the show. The series with Jeremy Brett were among the best ever.

I watched “Elementary” for around 15 minutes before it struck me that I was so bored that I had no idea what was going on. Just turned it off then.

Ditto on Jeremy Brett. I also like those because Watson was portrayed as intelligent ( though not as brilliant as Holmes). Some of the older movies had Watson as a bumbling fool.

I'll give Elementary a couple more weeks, but Holmes is far too manic for my taste so far. I fear it will end up as a common police procedural with characters named Holmes and Watson, but have very little to do with Doyle's originals.

It was a yawner.

“The series with Jeremy Brett were among the best ever.”

I totally agree. Nobody can touch Jeremy Brett as Sherlock; very classy shows. I never get tired of watching them.

Brett WAS Holmes...too bad he passed away so young.
