Elementary
May. 4th, 2023 12:13 pmI wonder what Elementary would have been as a series if written through/with the pandemic as a backdrop. I really have no idea, but that came to me as I came across the user pic while replying to something else.
Elementary!
Dec. 11th, 2019 01:34 amWhoa, haven't watched Elementary in a year, but the other day I saw commercials for the current season on Global and they're in fucking LONDON with pixie-what's-her-name who looks like ![[personal profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user.png)
sabotabby's ex-roommate (not that much, but lossy memory, etc) so that peeked my curiosity.
So I need to catch up, fired up season 6, and OMG I can't believe how contrived everything is, until I hit episode 5 or 6, get reminded that the investigations are often just excuses for the personal drama around it, and it looks like they've finally launched the season's background plot arch properly.
And now they had a sweet episode that made me legit cry because of how tender Joan & Sherlock were towards a Situation in the end. Weeeee!
It's already 1:30am and I'm probably going to line in another episode, so unfortunately this is going to kill my sleep for a little while...

WTF was that? This was the most unsatisfying story arc of the whole series. Suddenly Sherlock has a secret friend who's not introduced to us and never explained, until the end, with the most lazy excuse of all time. The whole plot with SBK ends up being convoluted and the resolution unsatisfying. This ain't no criminal mastermind.
I was enjoying this season and they just did this lazy writing. Just a little more set up would have been great, for starters.
This writer is more generous than me (full spoiler review), and sees some good in how this was put together. But humpppf.

Elementary tattoos
Apr. 2nd, 2018 11:40 pmSo huh, Sherlock has a back tattoo which reads:
Sister
Mother
Father
Brother
So I'm guessing there's one family member yet to be seen?
(I'm at S05E19 so don't spoil if she's coming soon.)
Other tattoos:
"MT [?] Gangster" with a sunglasses-wearing skull
26.2
Anyone know/remember what these would be about?
