Catching up with Elementary -- Are Joan and Sherlock really going to go up against a less morally stable Person of Interest type of Big Bad?

I mean, a system used to predict crimes?

But instead of just stopping the people and leaving the police to handle them Reichenbach's group kills them. Although I suppose now I know how Sherlock would react both to Team Machine and the Machine itself!

I have a feeling if Sherlock met Team Machine, Harold, John, and Shaw (especially if Carter was still around) could win Sherlock and Joan over. For one, Team Machine is more subtle, for two, while John and Shaw were former government assassins Harold is expressly against murder.

This is actually interesting and fodder for my stalled Person of Interest/Elementary fic.

OMG no, they’re not Team Machine, they’re Samaritan!

SUPER interested in this though I stopped watching Elementary a few seasons ago.

I just finished watching the season, and it's interesting where they end up! I still think 13 episodes isn't enough but they ended the show in a good place IMO!

Ooh, I had no idea they were doing this storyline in Elementary!

[grimorie]

So did I ! I was so surprised! I mean Odin Reichenbach isn't using an AI but his algorithm and using it to track people who were about to do crime but it's really interesting especially in light of Person of Interest!

What if a Samaritan type organization with a backing of a billionaire operated in the US and Sherlock and Joan fell into their crosshairs!
