I was dying when we first met. I mean, I looked well enough, just got out of rehab and all that. Thought that I knew everything, but I didn’t. I didn’t realize how much work I would have to put in and how much time it would take. But most of all, I didn’t realize that things could get better. And that I could actually be… Yes, I was dying. And no one could see it but you. You saved my life, Joan. We’re partners. No, we’re much better than that. We’re two people that love each other. We always have been.
I’m so floored by Elementary. I’m so floored with an explicitly neurodivergent Sherlock, who is both not socially adept but cares so much about the victims of his crimes, and whose addiction is explicitly framed as an actual issue he struggles through, not a fun quirk that can be brought up whenever it seems fun to.
I am *floored* by a Chinese-American, female Watson. I so floored by the fact that she is strong but she does not need to be when she hurts. That she has made mistakes and that the narrative doesn’t paint her as ruined for them. That she is clearly the heart of the show, and that she is so beloved and respected and admired by the narrative.
Elementary is everything. Simply everything.
Edit: I found this while cleaning out my drafts and it’s still true.
