  • Elementary "Snow Angels" Review: Is It Still Snowing Where You Live? (Other Than That, a Pleasant Episode)

    After Elementary's long hiatus, watching a blizzard episode in April was a bit disorienting. But "Snow Angels" was still an enjoyable (if chilly) return to form.

      Snow Angels was an excellent episode of Elementary. The story was engaging and fun. I loved the inter storm in the background which cast NYC in a beautiful blanket of snow. Pam the plow truck driver was awesome and I liked how she interacted with Sherlock. It was fun watching Holmes and Watson investigate and almost be bested by a group of thieves. It was neat to see how brilliant their plan was. I also liked Holmes and Watson's house guest and how she cleaned and organized the apartment. I look forward to the next episode!!!!!!!!!

    • Good, but I miss the "sober companion" thing

      Reading the opinions of the other people, I think Im tthe only person that prefered the "sober companion thing" rather the "detective aprentice" dont misunderstand me, I love Watson-Holmes interaction, but I love the "excuse" of a companion to introduce their relationship... I feel this new turn somehow forced... but I love the way they live together, and this is a nice example of an interesting episode. At first, I was not very sure that this new concept of Watson being a woman, and them working in the USA, but I simple love this think that JLM has SO much to be part of my adoration... ;-)moreless
    • And the family keeps expanding...

      The most amazing Miss Hudson joins the family, as Joan comes home to find her not a client, but a mess. A mess Shelock didn't talk to her about. The "roommate thing" discussed more presentely than the fact Miss Hudson has a Adam's apple. Sherlock is right Joan has no problem with it, but Joan is right this is their home now, the polite thing to do is to ask before - not after - the fact.



      And ask he does, the next morning when Sherlock asks her out on a blizzard to solve their latest case, of course Joan is not going to dress in front of an audience. A qualm their turtle Clyde doesn't share, happy to pose the latest fashion as a fake ambulance in their model crime scene. By the end of the episode they have solved the case, Miss Hudson's love life and Clyde almost gets a habitat. You can't have everything in life but, for the time being, life at the Holmes-Watson household rings as close as perfect as it can be.moreless

      The show is interesting in that, it's Sherlock Holmes, in the broad strokes. But everything is different. Not that they have much of a choice, since the BBC Sherlock have a vested interest in ensuring this version doesn't copy cat theirs.



      The relationships between the characters cannot be as per the original, it makes sense, but so far, whatever it is they have, is working. I'm entertained, so, for me, I'm happy.



      Just can't wait to see how they will implement Moriarty.



      A transgender character being portrayed by a real transgender person. Interesting. Why not? Ms Hudson was Holmes' landlady in the original version. In this version, I suspect she will become a recurring character who, may even become a regular if she becomes popular with the viewership.

      What an amazing episode, this case was really interesting, no means of transport & basically no means nothing except Pam, driving Holmes & Watson around. Never thought that four people were involved, until Detective Bell mention the four plane tickets. Had no idea Denise Castor was the forth player until Holmes said she had the means to arrange the way around the city. Great plan at the end to catch them & then Castor turned on her partners & gave them. I Love Holmes & Watsons Interaction. Thumbs Up CBS.moreless

      • Holmes: Yesterday you complained when I took Ms. Hudson in.
        Watson: Yesterday I was upset because you brought a stranger into our shared living space without asking. Today she's no longer a stranger. I like Ms. Hudson. You know, she's lost. She's just trying to figure herself out.
        Holmes: You identify with her. She's like you were before you met me.
        Watson: What?
        Holmes: Lost, trying to figure yourself out.
        Watson: No, I reject that analogy. I just want to help her. I think it would be good if Ms. Hudson learned to take care of herself, that's all.

      • Watson: What if there are fifty commandos shooting up the place?
        Holmes: Well, I have my whistle. I don't know what's gonna happen next! That's what makes this an adventure.
