I started watching Elementary tonight after debating what to start. I have all ways enjoyed and slightly connected with Sherlock Holmes videography. I say videography and not stories because Ive never read the books. The reasons for my connection are obvious knowing my personality.
So, I had posted a status saying how I had started it and was enjoying it. A few people commented and i commented back in that conversation, and the matter it covered is unnecessary for my analysis of the show. I continued to watch the show for a few more episodes and then went back to past the following as another comment on the same status, to act as a 'update', if you will, to those who might read my status in the morning.
im enjoying it much more...heis s a bit more human and hes a bit more disturbed, i guess is the correct word, then other sherlocks that ive seen. Its taken a darker twist on his drug usage and having that and this past mysterious lover be the drive to show his emotional side rather than the girl (forgot her name) he usually has his little rivalry with. im liking it that he also does talk to joan (who ive really warmed up to in certain ways even tho sometimes she can get preachy) in backward hidden messages about the description of his psychy like in the 4th episode at the end when he says about how "being able to see the puzzle in everyone" and how its a lonely methodology to live ones life by. I very much like this for a slightly relate to it, obviously. It has given me a good source to quote and a better look at an aspect of myself.
After coming back to this a month later, i must retract my previous statement that i liked it more. After a bit more indepth thought and discussion, the BBC Sherlock is a much more unique and, to be frank, awesome show. That does not mean anythign else i said i dont not hold by, Elementary is still a great show, just not as awesome as Sherlock.
