Lee Miller & Lucy Liu)
Season 6 of the acclaimed crime drama series
Elementary starts tonight (Wednesday July
18) at 19h00 on M-Net City Movies (Channel 115).
This take on Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's
classic character has disgraced Sherlock Holmes (Johnny Lee Miller) fleeing
London for present-day Manhattan after a stint in rehab. He arrives to find
that his father has assigned a sober companion to live with him - Dr Joan
Watson (Lucy Liu), a former surgeon whose medical licence was revoked three
years earlier after she lost a patient. She now seeks penance by helping
addicts stay clean. However, Holmes has his own plan for keeping on the
straight and narrow, throwing himself into his work as a police consultant in
New York City. The two find that they make a good team and are soon cracking
some of the NYPD's most-difficult cases.
In the season premiere, titled An Infinite Capacity For Taking Pains, Holmes
confronts a medical diagnosis that threatens his career.
