I have not seen the Hound with Roxburgh and Hart; I just had to look it up.

It's up on youtube, if you're curious. I'm very fond of Hart's Watson.

A less lonely life would be good, though.

Yes! That's what I meant, more than 'she needs a man/woman in her life to be happy'. Any relationship with Sherlock Holmes, no matter who is playing him, is going to be a bit dysfunctional. I'd like to see her having more support. Friends are fine, too. I was just thinking of Watson's romantic exploits from the books. I also think they would be able to write a nice Mary Morstan version that wouldn't place her in a position of having to tone down her awesome, if you know what I mean. Woman tend to get gooey on TV shows when they fall in love, but I have faith in the Elementary team to find her a partner that would respect her abilities rather than try to subdue her, and I'd like to see that.
