    Excellent Series

    Elementary has become one of my favorite television shows. I enjoy all things to do with Sherlock Holmes (books, movies, and television series - both serious adaptations and parodies) and at first had some doubts about of some of the modernizations of this series. I quickly admitted my error as the show has become a very different and unique Holmes offspring while still staying true to the science of deductive reasoning. Johnny Lee Miller is outstanding in his portrayal of Sherlock - a man devoted to solving problems. One assumes that his mind works at a phenomenal rate and essentially can't stop the reasoning process from taking over every part of his thoughts and life. He has almost an Asperger's type of behavior, including almost non-existent social skills. Lucy Liu is excellent as Joan Watson, his partner. It is with Watson that I have seen the biggest deviation from the original stories. Watson is becoming as important an investigator as Holmes. With Ms. Liu skillfully portraying this character, it is a pleasure to watch this transformation. This has been my take-away of the biggest change in season 3. I'm looking forward to seeing where the writers and actors take these characters in season 4.

    Being a huge Sherlock fan I welcome all versions. Once seeing my first "Pilot" of Elementary I must have all of the seasons and view them multiple times. Did i say that before seeing the entire Pilot; I snubbed the different concept-NYC, female Watson,no Lestrade, just to name a few. The changes have made the show. Elementary is must see.

    I was pleased to view another season of Elementary. I live overseas so did not have the ability to watch season 3 in the US. I am addicted by the series and third season did not disappoint me. Highly recommend the season 3.

    I love the suspense, intrigue, and drama that this TV series offers. I have been a fan since season 1 and season 3 continues to deliver GREAT entertainment. You never get bored with it and it remains unpredictable.

    A modern version of Sir Arthur Conan Doyles Sherlock Holmes played by Jonny Lee Miller ( a recovering drug addict ) and a female Doctor Watson ( played by Lucy Liu ). Good stories, good acting. Very entertaining. Enjoy.

    I love the twist on how the characters are portrayed - since season 1. Sherlock a recovering drug addict; Watson and Moriarity a woman. Wish they would keep Moriarity more involved, even if not showing but at least in dialogue or in "related events". Only four stars because they should put this on BluRay immediately. Season 1 from 2012 is the only one in this format.

    Elementary continues to entertain me, and I enjoy watching the show at home and on the road. Season three was well written and with enough plot twists to keep it fresh and worthy of a forth season.

    Lucy Liu and Jonny Lee Miller work so well together on screen as the perfect mix of brains and detective skills. Even aftet all of these seasons, still one of the best shows on television.

    For all you Sherlock fans, you won't be disappointed with this 3rd season. Plot twists are fun to try and solve before the end. Acting by ensemble cast continues to be top quality.

    And it keeps you on your toes because it keeps going in directions you don't expect. The cases are always real puzzles but, it's the characters that really keep you watching.

    I own all six seasons so far. I love the American version of Sherlock Holmes and Dr. Watson. The story lines are classic in their own right. Keep up the great work...

    I've never really cared for Jonny Lee Miller, but he's fairly appealing in "Elementary." The main attractive is excellent writing and clever variations on the Sherlock Holmes legend. Looks okay on DVD, but an upgrade to Blu-ray would help.
