Sherlock: "Love is a game a I do not understand."

[AntiArbitrator]

I understand using criminals as C.I.s, but it seems dangerous to use a murderous sociopath as a consultant.

Moriarty to Holmes: "The world's corruption runs deeper than even you know."

[Deleted]

Yes I agree with you there.

Too early! I need a break.

I had a choice to make. I was on CBS all evening and could have stayed, but I decided "Parenthood" would be the show I could more likely watch without having to go back and see something I missed.

[AntiArbitrator]

This was the most interesting episode of Elementary to me. I was not looking forward to seeing Moriarty, but the story was dramatic and the exchanges between Holmes, Moriarty and Watson revealed a depth to their character that I was not expecting. Is Moriarty jealous of Watson? Or is she intrigued by Watson's ability to hold Sherlock's interest?

Detective Bell is still struggling with physical limitations but they did not dwell on it in this episode.

We didn't see much of Bell in this episode.

[KyleEl]

I prefer lighter episodes that don't require so much use of my brain. I admit I was rewarded by all the detail in the episode, but I don't have time to spend two hours watching a one-hour episode, or however long it took.

I'm relieved to see the next episode is funnier or is at least being promoted that way.

The show is only 1 hour show.

I didn't say it wasn't. But when I have to keep rewinding to see what I missed, it seems longer. The more British accents, the worse it is.

[KyleEl]

We're missing last night's episode, which I haven't seen.

I watched this episode twice so that I could grasp everything. So I did spend two hours instead of one.

I was distracted yesterday and did not realize it was time for Elementary. Thanks for the reminder. Will make the thread now.

The local paper's TV listings made it look like that would be a big part of the episode.

Only 30 seconds were devoted to Bell's struggle. Bell has a large role in the current episode though.

I know what you mean Kyle.
