 Welcome to season two of Elementary! Yes, we know that Watson is a girl, and that the show takes place in New York as opposed to jolly old England. Let's meet our characters!  Sherlock Holmes (Jonny Lee Miller) is a recovering heroin addict who moved to New York after burning all his bridges behind him in London. Joan Watson (Lucy Liu) was hired to be his sober companion, and began coming along with him on his cases as he worked as a consulting detective with the NYPD. She enjoyed puzzling out cases with him, and when her time was up she decided to quit being a sober companion and to join Sherlock full time as a detective. He is trying to teach her everything he knows, which will take quite a long time.  Captain Tobias Gregson (Aidan Quinn) tolerates Sherlock's attitude and disruptive nature because he closes cases no one else can. He also tries to look out for Joan because Sherlock is apparently very cavalier about putting her in danger.  Detective Marcus Bell (Jon Michael Hill) begins season 1 very skeptical of Holmes and his abilities but at the end of the season he trusts Holmes and Watson and works with them to solve their cases. He works alongside Capt. Gregson.  Irene Adler/Moriarty (Natalie Dormer) seduced Sherlock in London when he was getting too close to her schemes, then faked her death to be rid of him. He crumbled in the aftermath, and ended up in New York. Once he got back on his feet she continued to keep an eye on him, as she judges that his intellect is the only one close to matching her own. Still, even though he gets close to taking her down after the reveal that she's alive and oh also his nemesis, Irene is ready to skip off into the sunset, getting away with her schemes. A shattered Sherlock ODs on heroin, causing her to visit him in the hospital because she actually cares for him, only to find out that it was a trap engineered by Watson and Holmes is perfectly healthy. The NYPD are waiting to take her into custody. We have no doubt not seen the last of the mysterious Moriarty.  Alfredo Llamosa (Ato Essandoh) is Sherlock's sponsor. He used to steal cars. Ms. Hudson (Candis Cayne) used to be a client of Sherlock's, but now stops by to satiate her OCD by rearranging his bookshelves and keeping things neat.S2 Casting:  Mycroft Holmes (Rhys Ifans) is Sherlock's brother who lives in London Inspector Lestrade (Sean Pertwee) used to work with Holmes in London before Sherlock got heavily into heroin.And we can't forget Clyde, the   he's an ambulance!     Sherlock often encourages Joan to learn how to protect herself and anticipate danger... Season Two Episodes: 1. Step Nine 2. Solve for X 3. We Are Everyone 4. Poison Pen 5. Ancient History 6. An Unnatural Arrangement 7. The Marchioness 8. Blood is Thicker 9. On the Line 10. Tremors 11. Internal Audit 12. The Diabolical Kind 13.

Also, didn't Moriarty actually get caught at the end of the finale because she confessed everything to Holmes after he faked his relapse/overdose and Watson caught it all on tape? I mean, she'll obviously get out at some point because what's Holmes in the long-run without Moriarty, but right now I'm pretty sure she's in custody.

I will add Alfredo and Ms. Hudson to the OP - I was going to say that I was only including regular characters, but I already put in Irene Adler so might as well just go for it.  To be honest, I was tempted to make the OP only about Clyde.If anyone has anything else I should put into the OP (more gifs?) just let me know! It's my first TVIV thread (we aren't counting the one I made for the first season of Blue Bloods  )

I've made some Elementary gifs, you're welcome to use any in the OP if you want and I won't be offended if you use none.  I'll also make any that anyone wants on request.Elementary shot up to be one of my favorite shows last season, it just kept getting better and better. Can't wait for it to start again!

I mean, I know what you're saying, both Irene Adler and Moriarty appear in one short story each and yet have become integral to the mythos. Psyched for season 2, I love procedurals with jerk detectives.

Yeah, I'm admittedly unfamiliar with the actual written works but I'd imagine one of the first things that pops to mind whenever someone thinks of Sherlock Holmes these days is Moriarty.

I stuck with the first season faithfully and it served me well. Love me some Lucy Liu Watson and Miller Holmes banter. I wonder, if they're going to London, who will take care of Clyde?

New episode tonight! Step Nine Sherlock is called to London to revisit an old case, where he is forced to face his older brother, Mycroft. Although the siblings suffered a drastic falling-out a few years earlier, Mycroft allows Sherlock and Joan to stay in his new home, 221B Baker Street. With Joan in the middle, the brothers are forced to confront their very complicated history.  (I don't have PMs so I can't ask the mods to stick the thread) Edit: it's like magic! hollylolly fucked around with this message at 19:21 on Sep 26, 2013 |

Enjoyed season 1, not sure exactly what I'd like to see in season 2. Anyone knowledgable on Sherlock Holmes lore able to comment on any interesting potential baddies for Holmes while he waits for Moriarty to escape? On a sidenote, there is a pub called Sherlock Holmes in downtown Edmonton, and the owners opened up a wine bar called Moriarty's right next to it.

Was Joan wearing a Batman shirt? This show is brilliant and gorgeous at the same time, and I nearly missed the premiere tonight. Really nice that they took the show overseas for an episode, it's really nice and even grounding. Love it.

I was hoping the London stuff would be like a mini-arc, but it looks like it was just the one episode. Still hoping/assuming that Mycroft will show up here and there, Rhys Ifans was great.
