As is typical of most American television shows, Elementary stretches its season finale over two episodes.

I don't know much about the double-episode format. What's that, you ask? It's basically one story broken down into two episodes, with the first episode ending in a cliffhanger to the next one.

As the season draws to a close, one character must inevitably make an appearance, considering this is a show about Sherlock Holmes. That character is none other than Professor James Moriarty.

There's a new character on the show, although isn't this a bit late, with five episodes left in the season?

This is another episode showcasing the apprenticeship of Ms. Joan Watson under consulting detective Mr. Sherlock Holmes. However, with only three episodes left in the season, I think they started the apprenticeship a bit late.

If you have any fears about how CBS's Elementary might rip off from BBC's Sherlock, now is the time to put those fears to rest. CBS knows that although Sherlock Holmes is part of the public domain, the Steven Moffat version isn't. And so rather than run the risk of infringing any existing copyrights, CBS went a totally different direction.
