Well, the niece and nephew have been here for a few days.
They insisted that we watch.

I think it's really good!
I thought Watson looked familiar, and they started telling me about all the movies he's done...but I haven't seen any of them!

oh i know the feeling. it's best to pick something that no one has watched in that case and flip it around on them! make them feeeeel the pressure!

@Jeanne ~ That's the one with Benedict Cumberbatch, right?

Biggles watches the one with Lucy Liu. I was kinda interested in that, too.

@Linnea ~ Yeah, that'll learn 'em!

...

ah yes the one with ben cumberbatch is the movie long episodes but it's like three episodes a season so it balances out

the guy who plays watson in the bbc/ben cumberbatch version is also in the hobbit and love actually and all kinds of good stuff

I haven't seen the Hobbit. Only read the book, long time ago.

It amazes me that they stretched that thin little book into three films.

Yeah, it's Cumberbatch.
I haven't seen Hobbit.

So there's another modern-day Sherlock with Lucy Liu?

yea jean and that guy who used to date angelina jolie and was in hackers with her hahaha
johnny lee miller or something like that. i don't like him as sherlock. not at all. lucy liu is watson... which is weird

@Jeanne ~ It's called Elementary. I think they show it on CBS.

Lucy Liu plays Watson.

@Lin ~ I just looked it up and it says 320 pages. I coulda swore it was shorter. But still, I think they added a lot to the movies.

oh well that seems significantly small when you figure it's three movies

It's really good! I enjoy it a lot, but I fear building it up too much and then you finally watch it and are like, "She said so many superlatives in relation to this show and I think it's worthy of about half of them. I am disappoint." But, yeah, I enjoy the cast a lot, enjoy the chemistry there and the filming style. I like the movie format for the series too, because it gives each story a chance to breathe.

Intend on watching Elementary at some point, but am keeping my expectations low in order that it might delight me in spite of myself. xD

It makes me sigh that they stretched it out. I really want to watch it for "Watson", though. And just to experience some amazing sets. Likewise keeping my expectations really low. That much is easy, though! Never heard anything good about the movies. xD;
