NEW: Read Marisa's Crime Reads article about Elementary as a pre-eminent Holmes adaptation! https://crimereads.com/elementary-is-a-masterclass-in-sherlock-holmes-adaptation/ What do Trainspotting, Charlie’s Angels, a rooftop covered in bees, and a pet turtle named Clyde have in common? Welcome to our case file on season 1 of Elementary, which ran on CBS starting in September 2012. Sarah and Marisa walk us back to 2012 and reminisce about watching the show when it aired, dissect its first season and the portrayals of its characters, and consider what Elementary is attempting to do in taking Holmes out of London in the 21st Century - and reimagining Watson as someone very different than we usually think of her. Is Watson still Watson, when his gender or his Britishness is in question? Is Vinnie Jones the best Sebastian Moran out there? Why do these bees make us want to cry? Note: Our discussion contains pretty significant spoilers for the plot of season 1 of Elementary - so if you haven't seen the show and want to remain un-spoiled, GO WATCH IT.
