bettycjung 6/25/18. A great series about cyber-technology and white-hat hackers who justify spying on everyone to prevent crime. Whatever. Overall, the series kept its intensity throughout the 5 seasons, changing from saving people who didn't know they need saving to saving The Machine from another more nefarious machine, Samaritan. Caviezel was good at the beginning but seemed to have lost "interest" in the last two seasons, after his return from disappearing for a few episodes. The emphasis seemed to have shifted to the secondary players, like Root and Shaw, which was all right. Root took getting used to. I found her coyness somewhat annoying at the beginning, but the writers seemed to have developed the character a bit more over time. Too bad Carter went MIA, Henson did a good job with her. Overall, this series is worth watching for its suspense and action and entertaining the possibility that global surveillance can be a good thing IF there were ethical people behind the scenes who were willing to do unethical things to ensure Justice is served.

tuktoyuktuk Just imagine if instead of 23 eps a season there were 12 or 13? This show would have benefited immensely from a shorter production format. We could have had less filler eps, more engaging flow, and much less ridiculous shoot outs. The writing staff is brilliant, no doubt about it and production values off the charts; too bad it got diluted by the 23 ep seasons. Of course my ideas are arguable but let's try to fathom a shorter season and while we're at it let's wonder if Warner would have been less avaricious, would the show have lasted longer?

rkv225 When you start watching this show for the first two episodes you will be thrilled and then it starts to get boring when your watch few more episodes. Reaching the end of season 1 it gets interesting again. A complete repetition of the same thing in each episode in which one person would be the victim or going going to do something wrong. The main story moves very slowly which also includes the past of John Reese. Watching same thing for more than 20 episodes make this show a boring one, If they had put up the whole stuff of a season in around 10 episodes then, it would have rocked. Rest it is worth watching.

emrebarisc Person of Interest is one of the most underrated tv series of all time. Little sroties are as good as the main story. Saving people and character's (John's, Harold's etc) background stories are good as well. Main story is placed in a very good and attractive way. I don't know why this serie gets 8.5 point.
