Hot in Cleveland Animated Special Coming This Season; WGN America Acquires Elementary for 2015
CBS drama Elementary is headed to WGN America starting in 2015, which has acquired exclusive off-network cable rights to the series. WGN America has the rights to all seasons of the critically acclaimed drama after each season has aired on CBS network. Starring Jonny Lee Miller as detective Sherlock Holmes and Lucy Liu as Dr. Joan Watson, Elementary is a modern-day drama about a crime-solving duo that cracks the NYPD's most impossible cases. Following his fall from grace in London and a stint in rehab, eccentric Sherlock escaped to Manhattan, where his wealthy father forced him to live with his worst nightmare - a sober companion, Dr. Watson. The series also stars Aidan Quinn and Jon Michael Hall. Elsewhere on WGN America, original series Salem is premiering April 20, 2014, and original series Manhattan will premiere in July 2014. WGN America will have three seasons of Elementary episodes to air next year and will likely air it once a week before airing it multiple times a week the following year (when regular syndication begins, which includes local stations on weekends), should CBS renew the series in first-run. CBS drama Person of Interest will also join WGN America in 2015, while comedy Raising Hope joins next fall (2014).
