Season 6 has its moments but largely continues the feeling that Elementary has had its moment
” I was thinking… Uncle Sherlock”
Here’s my 10 favourite performances in Season 6 of Elementary
- Douglas Hodge does wonderfully chilling villain as Sydney Place in Episode 4 ‘Our Time is Up’
- Brian Stokes Mitchell is entertaining as overly bureaucratic Dominic Voth in Episode 5 ‘Bits and Pieces’
- Tony Plana’s rich television history makes him an appealing face to see and his General Alvero pops up intriguingly and entertainingly in a couple of episodes in this series
- Episode 10 ‘The Adventure of the Ersatz Sobekneferu’ is illuminated nicely by Dylan Baker’s antiquities expert Armand Venetto
- And also by the work of Julian Sands as artist and fraud Jasper Wells
- ‘You’ve Come a Long Way, Baby’ features the welcome return of Jim Norton’s shadowy establishment figure but Roger Bart’s oleaginous Kip Lowell gets the plaudits here
- Lesli Margherita’s Sherry Lennox shines in Episode 13 ‘Breathe’ as she pushes the team towards a difficult truth
- Episode 15 ‘How to Get a Head’ features the hugely talented Michael Cerveris as Councilman Ledesma who in most entertainingly involved
- Ian Hart gets to play an old colleague of Sherlock who bears a grudge in ‘Uncanny Valley of the Dolls”
- Penultimate episode ‘Fit to be Tied’ fits in Parminda Nagra and Tonya Pinkins but it is powerhouse house Eden Espinosa’s late, brief turn as a doctor that sneaks in here
