Strike one for those prophesying a half-season cancellation for CBS’ take on Sherlock Holmes, as the series performed well enough in its first four stories to warrant a full twenty-two episode season order (that always seems such a lot doesn’t it? US TV never aims small).

The news came as Elementary made its UK debut on Sky Living. UK viewers can catch up with our spoiler-filled episode reviews, here.
