Elementary - 7x12 Reichenbach Falls Grade -- C
The good: The teaser was excellent. That explosion really took me by surprise. Joan’s black and white floral shirt by Karl Lagerfeld. Aidan Quinn -- nice to see him get a chance to show off his chops one last time. And Eugene the coroner guy too.
The bad: SIGH.
The story they’ve been building up to all season really petered the hell out here.
1. How the hell does a cancer-ridden Bob Gunton manage to kill three big burly professional assassins, chop them up, shlep them outside, burn them in an oven and then clean up after himself, escaping before the cops, but not before getting a very conveniently covered up burn on his arm. REALLY, DOHERTY? REALLY?
2. Many, many more twists and turns were needed here. Why not have a huge terrorist attack about to take place and they do have to team with Legolas to prevent it, and then he thinks they’re buddies again?
3. Why the hell not show Reichenbach/Sherlock’s struggle? Assume the gun was filled with blanks, so why not show it and see SH actually going into the water?
4. Way to take every last ounce of tension out of the situation by having SH tell JW about his faux murder plan. This is the one time he picks to be honest with her?? SMH. Seriously. Imagine if JW actually thought SH was dead? ACTING would’ve taken place. Finally. But noooo.... she had to be in on it.
5. And then why would you show the stupid Italian house with that terrible fake backdrop view and his arm in a damn sling? Why not let the audience wonder if he really did die on that bridge? I mean... storytelling 101.
(Though why I would expect them to get anything right at this point is truly beyond me).
The ugly: Where the hell did JW disappear to in the final act? Why wouldn’t we stay with her and see much more of her reaction or non-reaction? Have her get back to the brownstone and break down for example. Let her be in the interrogation with Odin for G-d’s sake. SOMETHING!
Meanwhile, Morland is dead, blown to smithereens, and there’s barely half a scene for SH/JW to react. Morland saved SH’s ass numerous times (keeping him out of prison for assault, hiring JW, taking on Moriarty, etc. etc.) and now he pays the ultimate price, and Sherly is just like, “He was mean to mom and Myc and me when we were little.” Well, how many times did the guy have to apologize?? Sheesh!
If there was ever a time for a JW/SH hug, one that he accepted gratefully, this was it.
Or what about, “Hey, let’s go to a meeting.” SOMETHING between these two!
The very hideous:
So we’re down to it. The final two episodes and here’s what we’re missing and need:
1. Euglassia Watsonia. How is the damn hive doing?
2. Clyde.
3. Lin/Mom/Oren
4. JW never did get a f-ing life. I will never forgive Doherty for that white male f-ckery.
5. The returns of Ms. Hudson, Harlan Emple, Lestrade, Cortez, and too many more to name.
6. Red fuzzy sweater. SNIFF!

I knew it! Sherlock faked his own death. Kept his plan from Watson, Capt. Gregson & Det. Bell. He had his reasons for doing so. No way would they kill off Sherlock. Kudos to the staff for a well-written & the cast for their brilliant performances in this episode!

Tagged by @archiegoodwin, sorry for the late answer! Tagging whoever wants to do it. =)
Rules: spell out your URL using song titles, then tag as many people as there are letters in your URL.
Okay, uhm. Being bullied for your musical taste as a teen doesn’t make one confident with this kind of tag game. So I have two answers for you.
The first is a list of Blake Neely songs from The Mentalist (and the episodes in which to find them), because the soundtrack on that show is A+++++.I’ll be happy to pass along any of those songs if you want to listen (and chat your ears off about The Mentalist because that is what I do lol).
L = Lights Out - 1x23 “Red John’s Footsteps”
E = Emily - 2x03 ″Red Badge”
A = Asks Out - 2x23 “Red Sky in the Morning”
F = Funeral - 1x02 “Red Hair and Silver Tape”
E = Explores - 5x20 “Red Velvet Cupcake”
N = Needs Saving - 7x12 “Brown Shag Carpet”
C = Chasing Red John - 6x08 “Red John”
L = Lisbon's Old Bedroom - 7x07 “Yellow Little House”
A = Archie - 4x21 “Ruby Slippers”
W = Wedding Walk - 7x13 “White Orchids”
And under cut, a list of song from the music folder on my computer, which are songs I listen to on repeat either to write, or to drown out sensory overload. They are very random and, uh, there’s no particular aesthetic there lol.
L = Labyrinth - Oomph!
E = Elementary Main Theme - Sean Callery
A = All The Rowboats - Regina Spektor
F = Final Conversation - The Butterfly Effect
E = Everloving - Moby
N = Nuvole Bianche - Ludovico Einaudi

I still haven’t watched any Elementary s7 yet, though I have kept up a bit with posts and gifsets on my dash and in the tags for eps 1-11. I’ve been avoiding most discussion of 7x12 on tumblr and twitter, and I plan to power through them all this weekend.
However, here at the end of all things Elementary, I find I’d like to maybe watch the finale in real time after all. So my question for those who’ve kept up:
which 2-3 episodes from season 7 must I watch, in addition to 7x12, to get me ready for The End 7x13?
Thanks! replies welcome in any/all media: post replies, asks, messages, hand-delivered calling card, tortoise-carried sticky note, etc.

Elementary: Reichenbach Falls (7x12)
I can't help but feel that this episode was slightly anticlimactic. Let's talk about it.
Cons:
Anybody who knows anything about Sherlock Holmes knows what "Reichenbach Falls" means. So honestly it's a little insulting that they tried to fool us for even one second with the idea that Sherlock might really be dead. When they did the "reveal" that he had fled the country, I sighed and rolled my eyes. They did that thing where they kept him off-screen for as long as possible so we'd all be "surprised" at the last second. But like I said, was there really a single person watching the show who was surprised by that twist?
It's also patently obvious that Joan was in on the plan. There's that moment when Sherlock says they have to "plan a murder of their own" and it's supposed to be a trick, like we think Sherlock and Joan are planning Odin's murder. But obviously he's talking about the plan to fake his own death in order to frame Odin for killing him. I just don't want to waste any time in next week's finale hashing out the details of this ridiculously obvious plan.
Doing the Sherlock Holmes death fake-out thing is a classic of adaptation. I don't begrudge them for putting their own spin on it, and as I will discuss below, there were things about this version that I actually really enjoyed. But on the other hand, it felt a bit forced. Like of course they had to give it a try, and this is what they came up with. Sherlock states that they missed their one and only chance to get Reichenbach, and that leads him to the desperate plan that we see him enact. But I don't know if I'm convinced that their backs were really up against the wall. They needed to do more to convince me that this was really the best and only solution to the Odin Reichenbach problem.
One last note on how this all went down: they subverted many of the expectations about the classic fall/death moment, and I did appreciate that. But earlier in the season, when Joan's name was being thrown around as a potential weakness for Sherlock, I really thought they were building to an even bigger subversion. I thought maybe when it came down to it, Joan would be the one to "die." Think of how interesting and different that would have been. Imagine a true Reichenbach fake-out ending, where Joan is forced to make a move without the time to properly prepare Sherlock for it. She seemingly falls to her death, and Sherlock believes it, until the truth comes out. Now that would be something different, and interesting, and intense. I can't blame the episode for not doing what I hoped it would do. But I guess I just wish that in its final episodes, Elementary could have found a way to pull off another Natalie-Dormer-sized twist. If they couldn't get their Moriarty back, they might have found another way to twist a classic into something shiny and new.
Pros:
All that said, they did make some changes to the formula that I thought were pretty cool. Other than the obvious fact that this villain isn't Moriarty, although he does fulfill the tropes of the classic spider-like Professor from the originals, there's the fact that Odin doesn't die. Instead of Sherlock faking his death to ensure his nemesis will perish, he uses the fake-out to capture Odin, to get him arrested and start him on the path to his own destruction. This is a really clever change, and one that I definitely wouldn't have expected. It makes perfect sense, though - it's the ultimate sign of the philosophical differences between these two people. Sherlock knows that Odin is dangerous - knows that he has killed, and will kill again. But he still wants to find a way for him to be punished through legal channels, without resulting to vigilantism. Odin, on the other hand, continues his plan of executing potential threats, right up to the end. The system doesn't always work. In fact, it often fails. But Sherlock knows that killing people isn't the answer. He's not willing to cross that line, even now.
I also appreciate that Joan appears to be in on the plan, even though it's telegraphed far too obviously within the episode. Traditionally, Watson isn't supposed to know that Holmes is alive, but for Sherlock to pull that kind of a move here would have been wildly out of character. So I appreciate that it seems pretty clear that she was fully aware, and worked with Sherlock to pull this off.
Also, there's just the general angst of this scenario. I'm a sucker for it, as always. While Joan appears to know what's going on, Bell and Gregson seem ignorant of the plan. This means that we got to watch two of Sherlock's dearest friends try to process their grief and anger over what happened. Gregson getting in Odin's face was particularly affecting. And Bell has this quieter grief going on. I think he's in shock. He's just looking for answers, like if he can find Sherlock's body, it will allow him to accept the awful truth.
Despite my many problems with how this went down, the acting in that final moment on the bridge was really great. So much tension. I almost wish Odin could have been more Moriarty-esque. Not in the traditional Arthur Conan Doyle sense, but in the later-adaptation sense - a long-standing villain, cropping up again and again through the life of the show. But even without a multi-season buildup, this scene had a proper epic scope. It was very simple. Nothing elaborate, nothing too built up or ridiculous. Just two men talking on a bridge. Very well performed by both actors.
I think that's where I'll leave it. As you may be able to tell from my above comments, one of my main disappointments with this episode is simply that this show has never managed to top what it did at the end of the first season. Here at the end, I was hoping for something to really blow me away, and instead what I got was... perfectly fine. I'll still be a bit sad to say goodbye to these characters next week!
7.5/10
