Deadline: Elementary To End After 7 Seasons On CBS

CBS’ modern-day Sherlock Holmes & Watson series Elementary will end its run on CBS with its upcoming 13-episode seventh season. The decision comes as the crime drama procedural, created by Rob Doherty and starring Jonny Lee Miller and Lucy Liu, wrapped production Friday on Season 7 with the final scene in the finale the last one to film. 

One of the reasons for the decision to end the show is believed to be related to the fact that the contracts of stars Miller and Liu were coming up. With the story also winding down, everyone involved felt that this was a natural end where the series leaves on a high end creatively and everyone walks away happy and successful. 

Doherty also teased an upcoming time jump. “Something that I knew I wanted to do was move forward in time a bit with the characters by the very end.” He took some inspiration from canon. “There was a period when Sherlock and Watson were not together, they went down very different paths, and their lives were very different from having been apart. We felt that would be appropriate for our show. A lot was Season 7 working towards that, how can we tell a larger story that would allow us to devise a finale that sets in not so distant future.” 

The final season also will feature the great Holmes foe Odin Reichenbach. Played by James Frain, the character will first appear in Episode 5.
