I thought this was a decent enough premiere. It's a shame that they are already pulling them back to NYC. I liked getting to check in with Kitty, and also the new DCI is a promising character. I had a feeling the show would quickly revert back to NYC, but I was hoping to at least spend the first couple episodes in London.

I would have been overjoyed had the show decided to stay in London for the whole season.

I would have been double-overjoyed if they had been abducted by aliens and spent the rest of their last season solving crimes on Tau Ceti IV.

That would have required some special circumstances.

I had sort of hoped that this season would be Holmes and Watson's go at something like Inspector Morse or Lewis. I like Elementary but thought they would take advantage of the new setting.

I enjoyed this, but I'm not here for blonde Watson.
