CBS has cast Lucy Liu as Watson in “Elementary”
Further proof that CBS’ in-the-works Sherlock Holmes reboot will take the iconic franchise in a radical new direction: The network has cast Lucy Liu as Watson!
TVLine has learned that Liu has been tapped to play Watson toJonny Lee Miller‘s Sherlock in Elementary, the network’s modern-day take on the famed detective saga.
Another key change: Sherlock and Watson now live in New York City.
What I actually like this decision though.
LUCYYYYYYYYYYYYYY
…I HAVE…MIXED FEELINGS ABOUT THIS?

female Watson. But since...US, I just know they did this to allow for a straight romance...

MTE. No problem at all with Watson being a woman, only that Holmes isn’t ALSO a woman.

Yup, they’re casting Ms. Lucy Liu as Watson. I don’t hate her, I just don’t think it is a good idea… Now I get my PK...
