Elementary seems to be finding its way.

Been watching another new show, Forever, that has a kind of a Elementary/Sherlock vibe: gritty modern New York setting, smart highly-observant mystery-solving - but immortal - character, flashbacks to events in "olden times", harpsichord used in music... not nearly as good yet, but still an enjoyable watch.

Also, have you ever seen Murdoch Mysteries? Turn-of-the-century mystery show filmed (and set) right here in Toronto.

And from the far side of the pond, The Doctor Blake Mysteries out of Australia are nice period pieces.
