About
Not for you if you want strictly period Sherlock Holmes or fast, action-heavy crime plots, but if you enjoy character-driven mysteries and found-family recovery tales like Castle or Monk, Elementary is a strong pick.
Pros: standout character chemistry; smart, wry writing; emotional recovery themes | Cons: tone complaints; dialog/audibility issues; later-season quality concerns
