Trivia

The creators of this show reportedly went to great lengths to avoid comparisons or potential copyright issues with the British series Sherlock, which also re-tells the story of Holmes in a contemporary setting. One visual cue that was included as a nod to the British series is Holmes' scarf, which is worn the same way as it is in "Sherlock".

Just amazing.

I love Elementary series.I love every TV series or cinema movie with Sherlock Holmes.This specific TV series is just amazing and extraordinary.I love it.I didn't expect from the very beginning that would be good series with a female John Watson,but Liu is doing a great job.Johnny Lee Miller is simply wonderful on Sherlok Holmes act.10 stars.And the 2 cops are really good.Every episode is wonderful,with great scenario,full of mystery and in every episode you get stunned with Sherlock Holmes brain and his answers to the crimes and mysteries.I hope these series will continue for long time far and i hope there will be a lot of seasons with so good episodes like the first season till now.
