Hmmm.... will it work? I'm interested.

I'm skeptical to say the least. If it were to come on while I was flicking channels, I might stick around, but its unlikely that I would seek it out directly.

Maybe its just because I've never much been a fan of TV Promos were the characters are sitting. (And really, the angle of this particular photo is terribly flat; either one of these would work better instead: http://spinoff.comicbookresources.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/05/elementary-cbs.jpg

The room is rather sparse for a character known for being so meticulous and the windows don't really tell us anything about their New York setting.

Also, I think the purple socks are a little too on the nose. "Oh, look, he's eccentric!"

Its also distracting that the "L" has a tail on it, but none of the other letters do.

So Yeah, I'm cynical and nitpicky and probably just looking for problems. Will it be any good? We'll just have to wait and see.

No. The whole thing in my mind tastes like sour milk.
