The buzz I have seen has ranged from they are dooooomed without him to what should an employee expect when they throw a hissy fit and kick people.

Procedurals 1: Anything You Say Can and Will Be Used Against You.
This thread is for procedural TV, shows where the primary idea is to figure out the case. [NAFDA]
Oh they fired him when I read that earlier it was just suspended.
This isn't the first time there was some kind of physical interaction I guess (from what I read this morning). Too bad Shemar Moore left I could see Morgan being promoted to Hotch's place.
I wonder how it will play out. They don't really need Hotch.
No way the writers would do this but it would be awesome if JJ got promoted to Hotch is spot.
Note: Poochie Hotch died on the way back to his home planet.

This.
NCIS is doing a very weird homage to The Breakfast Club tonight.
Elementary is back tonight!
(But oh, god, as an Ohioan, I fear the political ads.)
On Conviction: when you see Merrin Dungey - do you think, "Oh no, they doubled Francey"?
I'm watching Elementary from a couple weeks back. I'm also in the midst of reading Who Killed Sherlock Holmes?, which makes rather a point of Holmes' canonical ignorance of astronomy (that I otherwise would never have thought of), but now I find Sherlock expounding on asteroids a bit odd.
Some of you doubtless have more expertise in Sherlockiana, what say you?
The Sherlock in Elementary is a different beast from the canonical Sherlock. I think the BBC Sherlock is closer to canon than Elementary's Sherlock (how many times can she use his name in two sentences!)
I think that Conan Doyle's own characterization of Holmes was less consistent than the differences between the Cumberbatch and the Miller portrayals, from one end of canon to the other. The times when Watson reports Holmes as being close to emotionless are greatly at odds with all the times when a depth of emotion, passion, and compassion escape the lid Holmes keeps on his feelings. Conan Doyle did not love his most famous creation as much as we do, he simply didn't bother with consistent characterization. From Study in Scarlet where Watson describes Holmes as someone who refuses to give room in his brain for even the most basic facts of astronomy because it doesn't matter to solving crimes to The Adventure of the Lion's Mane where Holmes claims to be "an omnivorous reader with a strangely retentive memory for trifles" is a long road in terms of both lifespan and characterization.
In creating each of these two modern interpretations of Sherlock Holmes, the BBC and the CBS productions keep and discard different facets. Elementary holds closer to canon in the realm of Holmes' psychological and moral makeup - very ethical and deeply caring while still not being remotely neurotypical - while Sherlock hews closer to canon in acknowledging that Holmes was coded as queer, whether specifically homosexual or asexual or what points precisely the Great Detective occupies on the spectrums of sexuality and desire for romantic relationships, is very open to interpretation.
