ElementaryElementary uses shots of a marble running down a marble shoot, around different scenes show links between different places and the crime that has been committed. This shows the audience that the programme is likely to be a crime drama and the marble is used to link the case together. Also the use of the number cards also suggest that it is a crime drama because the police use number cards when investigating a crime scene.
