Anyone else watching?
I'm fairly impressed.
Jonny Lee Miller and Lucy Lui are not nearly as annoying as I thought they might be.
I think I like it.

I enjoyed it, and JLM is always good, but so utterly different from Sherlock (which is not a bad thing actually).

Very much a procedural cop show at heart though.

Took me a while to recognise Aiden Quinn! (Has fond memories of a younger Aiden being rather gorgeous back in the 80's Grin) I don't know how Canonical it will be in terms of Sherlock/Watson and Conan Doyle though. Not very based on what I've seen so far. One to watch, I think...

I haven't seen this show but I did see both Johnny Lee Miller and Benedict Cumberbatch last year in Frankenstein at the national so its freaking me out that they are now both playing Sherlock Holmes. What's going on there! Would like to see Elementary to compare but unfortunately I missed it.

Aww agree about Aidan Quinn, he's still a good looking fella!

Managed to see this tonight, not bad! Hasn't quite grabbed me yet but will stick with it and see where it goes.

I liked this a lot, the bit at the opera made me Grin. Could be my new favourite series.

Still watching this then? I'm rather enjoying it so far, although I think Lucy Lui hasn't had much to do so far. Liked the twist in ep three!

Yes I really like it. Think Jonny Lee Miller is great. I think it could become a must see for me. I feel all happy when I see the weeks episode has recorded.

I'm enjoying it, but I love JLM.

I watched this for the first time last night and hated it. I do love JLM but he was so overacting it was painful. I think BC and MF can't be beaten.

Aww I think Jlm is really good in it myself. And I speak as someone who bloody loves Sherlock as well. I agree that Sherlock definitely has the edge over it but I still like it in its own way.
