Elementary 3.14 The Female of the Species

Another excellent episode and we had a bonus Moriarty moment:

It’s always a treat to see Sherlock interacting with the police and he has a nice rapport with Det. Bell and I especially liked that Bell encouraged Sherlock to reach out to Joan and to make sure she was alright. He and Joan are friends but he knows that Joan and Sherlock are friends as well as partners and that’s a deeper bond.

I also liked that Joan realized that her life is not going to be “normal”, that her career as a detective precludes that--she needs to embrace that her life is different now, and Moriarty’s letter cemented that.

Lastly, it was good to hear Natalie Dormer’s voice again as Ms. Jamie Moriarty.  I like that she realizes that when she has her final confrontation with Sherlock, Joan is going to be right there at his side.  And how awesome is her, “No one takes you out of the game until I want you out of the way.”  Now that’s deeply badass.

It was the last thing I was expecting and at the same time was the most perfect twist imaginable.

I figured they were getting Joan to move back to the Brownstone but that was unexpected. A very good episode an at the same time something very different than we normally see.

I love that Natalie Dormer is able to carve time out of her extremely busy acting schedule to continue to play Moriarty--we can continue to get awesome surprises like that :):)
