Yeah, she won't be Moriarty's kid. At best, they could make her Moriarty's long lost protege or something. That could parallel the whole Kitty/Sherlock dynamic which would be a interesting retread.

Yeah, I think more than a few people here didn't feel the 'creepy' vibe from the father that the reviewer mentioned. I can get why she might think so but in truth, it doesn't really come off as racist or insulting. It's more like a shaky reconciliation.

Yup, I would like see some endgame in all of this. Some way that ties everything together meaningfully without being a cop-out or fanservice

It would great to have a recurring malicious personality back on the show since it would give the show focus. I wonder if she could somehow become protege #3. Now, that I would pay to see.

Hmm, maybe we can see her working in concert with Moriarty. That would be fun.

I thought this episode was solid overall. I loved Ally loanides' performance which contained shades of machiavellianism and psychopathy that was rather unsettling when put in perspective. The closing scene in which she smiles subtly at Sherlock's refusal to answer her was marvellous.

Robyn was hella annoying because she felt incongruent to the whole atmosphere of the show which has been meticulously built up over the last 9 episodes. That they decided that including her into the A-plot is pretty crappy since it reeked of lazy storytelling to me.

Yup, that's the general consensus. I don't really blame the actors because it doesn't look like they have much to work with. Joe's script seem to comprise mostly of staring blankly and Juliana's isn't particularly exciting. Frank is actually good towards the end especially the mourning scene which was really well done

You should but I would watch it in one or two sessions because it's really a ten hour movie more than a tv series.

That's partly the issue. Elementary has never really worked well as a hard procedural. However, the cases are often in some way, linked to characters such that they are interesting.

Yeah, same here. I don't think the show hasn't gotten back into its groove yet after the excellent Kitty arc. I get the sneaking suspicion that they didn't really know what to do with the second half of season 3 and just used relapse as an easy cop-out to raise the stakes.

Oh god, don't mention it. The pillow talk was spine-tingling.

Urgh, another plodding episode that seems to mirror the whole "Mycroft might be evil" reveal from season 2. The case was a snoozefest as far as cases go and the whole hidden assassination thing was rather uninspired. Seems like the writers got bored this week and churned this out.

I pretty much agree completely. PKD is of my favourite authors and it's a common trend in his books to have excellent world-building that is well fleshed-out. Unfortunately, his characters often seem to suffer as a result from being flat or one-dimensional. I always thought of them as less of characters and more of

Hmm, I liked the mystery in this episode and the character development on the part of Alfredo but so far, the episodes this season have been fairly unexceptional. Not bad, not mediocre but just lacking a general sense of direction present in previous seasons. Season 1 aimed to slowly peel away's Sherlock's past while

The subtle black canary reference was hilarious for me.

That last sequence with that Hans Zimmer-esque score, Ravi's grim monologue and Liv staring into the horizon on the rooftop had me in stitches. I think the writers had a lot of fun with that although it is strangely fitting in a weird, charming way.

Gosh, this show has to be one of the most well-written shows that somehow manages to balance light humour and comedy with a dark, grim overarching plot. Honestly, I swear it's the title and marketing that's putting people off.

I like how the writers have managed to get their game together. After last season's sprawling mess, this season is like a nicely patched quilt in comparison. That said, I still find it difficult to buy Arrow's writing but its getting better this season now that they finally got a grip. I mean the whole vigilante thing

I can't exactly understand his rationale for killing innocent people even if they technically are zombies. I mean, the love of his life is also a zombie too, isn't she? How can he reconcile his original beliefs that all zombies were kid-murdering monsters with the existence of zombie Liv?
