'Elementary' Season 6 Release Date, Spoilers: CBS Confirms Show's Return
It looks like all the waiting that "Elementary" fans did has finally paid off as it has been confirmed that the CBS show is all set to return for a sixth season.
CBS has finally confirmed when "Elementary" would be coming back. It had definitely taken a while before any news regarding the sixth season of "Elementary" was heard of, but thankfully, it was announced that the CBS show would officially make a television return this coming spring. This is after the network first made the "Elementary" fans a bit nervous when their favorite show had not been a part of the Fall 2017 lineup, as previously announced by CBS.
Moreover, CBS has also revealed that instead of the usual 24-episode season that "Elementary" has had in the past, its sixth season would only feature 21 episodes. Not only that, the show had also been moved to a brand new timeslot. "Elementary" is set to replace "Scorpion" in the Monday–10 p.m. timeslot when the latter officially wraps up its season.

With Jonny Lee Miller portraying the recovering addict and consulting detective Sherlock Holmes and Lucy Liu playing his associate, Joan Watson, the fifth season of "Elementary" ended with the former being revealed to have only hallucinated his conversation with his deceased mother. He was eventually taken in to have his brain scanned.
Desmond Harrington's involvement in the show's sixth season had also been announced much earlier. He would be playing the role of Michael, a recovering addict who found inspiration to become sober through Holmes' own example. The character would reportedly reach out to Miller's character as he struggles with his inner demons, providing the comfort and support that only someone who has been in the same boat could provide.
"Elementary" season 6 is all set to premiere this coming April 30 on CBS.
