score 3/10
I love Sherlock Holmes; from the original Doyle books to Basil Rathbone to Benedict Cumberbatch. When I heard that they were going to do an modern American version I thought "hmmmm". We have to admit that the Americans do not have a great track record when it comes to remaking British television. With Elementary they continue this tradition of "not getting it". Why didn't they just name this series "CSI: Sherlock"? They have reduced Sherlock to just another mindless, formulaic American melodrama. Sorry but I will not be watching another episode of this. I will wait for the next Benedict Cumberbatch episode. Three episodes a year of the Benedict Cumberbatch series is better than 20 of Elementary.
