Elementary S2
Sep. 28th, 2014 11:32 pmI have a really strange relationship with Elementary. You see, I love the characters, I don't think they are in any way or shape or form similar to Doyle's creations, but I love them anyway. And I love their cases. I love the tiny details that we learn about Sherlock and Joan in every episode...
But when it comes to long-term arcs? I HATE THEM! I didn't like Irene Adler when she was still Irene Adler, the whole search for her killer, and I didn't like the Moriarty reveal. I downright hated Moran and his storyline. And Mycroft... I love that he loves his brother but there's absolutely none of the brilliance that should be there, that makes up Mycroft's character in the books. He's a well-meaning bum.
( And then there was the end-of-the-season arc... )
