Person of Interest.

I'm really enjoying Person of Interest - the slow reveals about both Reese and Finch, both men working together but trying to outwit each other at the same time. I'm enjoying those moments more than most of the main plots, to be honest.

And Elias is certainly shaping up to be a worthy adversary.

It's pretty unusual in any TV show for "Try the eggs Benedict; I've had them many times*" to be a meaningful line that illuminates and advances the relationship between characters .

QFT.

I love how they make Finch's employee(for lack of a better word) look like Jack from Lost -to pair up Ben and Jack again. I think Carter will be an Ally when she can. I love the theme of the show and I am sure we are not done seeing the full picture.

New episodes start on Thursday.

Just discovered this show, and I like it a lot.

In the name of logic and common sense, I hope Reese is still convalescing from the events of the last new episode.

At least take one episode to recover before returning to the regularly scheduled beatdowns and butt-whuppings.

POSSIBLE SPOILER:










With the exception of Finch "throwing Det. Carter in the deep end of the pool," there was something about this episode that left me feeling like this --->



However, I'm still a huge fan and I'm glad it's back.

I've just caught up with the latest episodes -- or I think I did? the last one I saw was of when Reese was in a wheelchair? Is that the last one for you guys as well? I have to watch them online

Loved the 'hommage' to Hitchcocks Rear Window, by the way - one of my favorite movies of all time

And now Carter is collaborating with them which is great.
I am wondering what happened to that guy, Finch's colleague or friend, who also knew about the machine? The scenes we've seen him in have all been from the past, right? Or have I missed something?

Liking this series a lot!

POSSIBLE SPOILER:










Reese in the wheelchair was aired last night (01/12/12) and it was the beginning of the "new" episodes.

Didn't catch the Rear Window connection, but now that you mention it - yeah!

I thought it was interesting that it was implied that maybe there really isn't a "machine" but that Finch is "the machine."

Or is he?

I just love a mystery and I am sooo loving this.

Well, they did then show for the first time how the machine worked in a flashback. So I think there is a machine. Interesting idea though. Also the flashbacks where he doesn't limp. Guess we'll find out about that in due course. I opted for POI over the new Finder, think it was probably the right choice.

Yes, I suspect his friend turned on him in a nasty way

I did see that the name Nathan was a target, and I was wondering if that was his name (the friend)
Right, I noticed the lack of limping, from the past, too.

I saw someone mentioned LOST in earlier posts - is there a connection to LOST? Is it made by the same people?

What is scary about this series is that is isn't far fetched. Suveillance cameras, recording with mobile phones, all those things - it doesn't seem so unrealistic that these tools could be used the way they are used in this series. Quite scary.

Yes, Reese suggested that there was no machine. I wonder why he said that. In the scenes from the past it definately seems like there is a machine.
Now can't wait for the next episode

Looking forward to finding out how Finch got the limp and if his family (wife and kids/parents?) were selected by "the machine" but he was unable to rescue them.

new fave show.
Finch is like Oracle
Reese is like Batman
Carter is like Gordan

Plus I like looking at Reese.

I did think he looked a little too 'not really injured' in the last fight scene. It was pretty convincing up until then.

Crutch Kung Fu

Ohhhhhh yeah.

Haha, yes he was a master on the crutches (too)

It was fun that the tables were turned in this episode. Poor Finch had to be 'in the field'

Yeah, Reese is nice for the eyes.

Oh look fans n_n

I love it, its my favorite new show this season.
