I guess you really liked Elementary? I thought it was meh. Way too much exposition for my tastes, I think. They talked the whole time. I know they had a lot of backstory to cover but it really didn't do anything for me.
There were also some things about the episode I just didn't understand. Like why the poor murdered woman built a saferoom she didn't tell her husband about. IDEK. It just didn't hang together for me. NOT that Hawaii Five-0 is perfect in its story-telling. But all the pretty distracts me.
I'm not a 'Baker Street Irregular' so I guess I'm not the target audience. And all of Sherlock's anti-social behavior (which is really one of his defining traits) annoys me. That kind of renders it impossible for me to fully enjoy any adaptation.
I really wanted to like it, really. But it left me cold. (And I'm sorry.)
I was wondering what others thought of it, though.
Will you share what you really liked about it? Maybe I can look at it from a different viewpoint.
