    I rarely watch films or show or TV, lots of the way the drama being acted feels uncomfortable to me. But recently I really like Elementary, and have watched all 7 seasons.

    This is the first time for me to get into Sherlock Holmes world, I have never read the original Sherlock Holmes. Elementary is a modern adaptation of Sherlock Holmes. But I guess this can be interesting for anyone who also like Sherlock Holmes.

    I really like the relationship between Sherlock and Joan in that series, they live together and really work great for being together, but they are not a romantic couple. It’s an interesting relationship. The series also have some fun trivia or elements related to digital privacy, surveillance, internet culture, etc, which are quite relatable to me. It mentions Edward Snowden once (I forgot which season, but it’s the one on 2014 I think, post-Snowden revelation). And NSA in that series also known being the one who have the ability to surveil everyone. Particularly on Season 7, they have a social media company that works alongside NSA to track citizens. I see that company in the series is kind of like Facebook as PRISM partner.
