Elementary
Currently about 12 episodes into season 1. Interesting enough, but I wish they had more of a continuing story line instead of just a simple case-is-solved-in-42-minutes episode each time. They just introduced the specter of Moriarty, and I am hoping that will provide a through-line.
while at its heart the show is essentially a procedural, it definitely becomes far more serialized and has more overarching plots in the 2nd and 3rd season.
Dr Who season (the new series, from the beginning to halfway through matt smith's first season): 4/10
of course i've been aware of this show forever and absorbed a substantial amount of knowledge of it and references to it via general pop-culture and nerd osmosis, but i'd never seen a single episode prior to a few weeks ago.
if i weren't binge watching it with a friend who is a giant whovian and getting to make idle cracks and digressions about it, i wouldn't be able to watch this show as i don't find it to be very good or enjoyable.
IMO it's not silly enough to be good and silly, it's not dark enough to be interesting and dark, and i have to confess to not understanding why this show has the massive devotion that it does.
but, it's not awful and i'm not angry about it or anything - it's just kind of lame and predictable, but oh well.
