Author: codebreaker    Time: 8-2-2011 15:30     Subject: Person Of Interest Season 1-5 General Discussion Thread (Spoilers)


Person Of Interest Premiered on CBS on September 22, 2011



PERSON OF INTEREST stars Jim Caviezel, Emmy Award winner Michael Emerson and Academy Award nominee Taraji P. Henson in a crime thriller about a presumed dead former-CIA agent who teams up with a mysterious billionaire to prevent violent crimes by using their own brand of vigilante justice. Reese's (Caviezel) special training in covert operations appeals to Finch (Emerson), a software genius who invented a program that uses pattern recognition to identify people about to be involved in violent crimes. Using state-of-the-art surveillance technology, the two work outside of the law using Reese's adept skills and Finch's unlimited wealth to unravel the mystery of the person of interest and stop the crime before it happens. Reese's actions catch the attention of the NYPD, including homicide detective Carter (Henson), and Fusco (Kevin Chapman), a cop who Reese uses to his advantage. With infinite crimes to investigate, Reese and Finch find that the right person, with the right information, at the right time, can change everything. Emmy Award winners J.J. Abrams and Bryan Burk ("Lost"), Academy Award nominee Jonathan Nolan ("Memento"), David Semel ("Heroes") and Greg Plageman ("Cold Case") are the executive producers for Warner Bros. Television.

This was a good opening episode, i liked the way John took out the cops before they killed the kid and the woman not being a victim but a perpetrator was a surprise and switching the tape in court was great

Interesting show, This is the kind of show I always liked, each episode dealing with a specific case and at the end, it all is nice and tidy.  Don't mind having a subplot in the background that spans.  Hopefully it stays like.   Neat take on good guy helps a little guy (this time without the little guy knowing.)

Nah. let's have one show that doesn't go into the romance stuff, besides he is still dealing with his own loss.  I like this show, reminds me of the old 80s show called Stingray, (not the kids one)  And that worked well having just 1 main character.  I like that the whole show deals with figuring out who is going to get killed at that time, no heavy save the world, no romance and so on

Zoe asking the cop not to turn up to the break in was almost a disaster but giving John the paper clip was a nice touch and the rescue was great

That was an interesting twist, hard to believe that the criminal mastermind was posing as a history teacher.

He didn't want to kill his wife or daughter.  The gun was unloaded when he raised it, he wanted to be shot and killed so he didn't end up back in prison,.

Well when he raised his hand why would it go off ?

It didn't go off,  Reese shot him.  Then when Reese picked up the gun and he checked the cartridge and mentioned that it was empty.  Then the old guy mentioned when asked how did he know Reese would have shot him.
Author: codebreaker    Time: 11-24-2011 07:26     Subject: 1x08 Foe

The shooter was cleaver to use the suicide by cop method when pointing the empty gun at the woman but holding his daughter at gunpoint just to speak to her mother was disgusting

I did, it was kind of obvious, they spent too much time with the focus on him, and the whole meet her for dinner thing cinched it.

Well that car accident and the money seems to be blessing but having each of 4 people killed over was rather interesting to see. Carter letting them go at end was no surprise but at least she know who he's working with.

Carter helping them escape was kind of a surprise, hopefully she realizes that the CIA only wants him dead because he got tired of killing people who were innocent.

Well, I think she wasn't really surprised cause she already had her suspicions since the first Elias episode. But I wonder how much of what they said she believes, even now they tried to shoot him.

It looks like the guys might have a new team member soon, though she might be a bit too honest for some of the work.  Funny to see the two of them switch roles.

No, he said it was so encrypted that it can't be hackable
Author: kellemanske    Time: 1-15-2012 06:45

I liked the last frame of the episode which might give us more insight into why they split up. The machine started looking at the partner as a possible thread. But I guess the machine is hackable for the partner, cause he knows how the machine works. The whole point of keeping the working of the machine secret was to make sure it wouldn't be abused. And the partner knows how the machine works so theoretically he could abuse it.
But the threat to decrease their payment for the machine was funny :-)

Lionel informing on Carter when he thought she was acting suspicious was amusing and Harold putting the scanner in the shredder was cleaver but what is Harold hiding it looks like that kids father may have designed the machine

Nope, they let everyone believe that the father was the one who designed it because Finch didn't want them to know. But he was the brain behind it. The kid just doesn't know it. I don't even think he knows that Finch knows that much about computers in general.

But we'll see Elias again. I can't imagine that this was all they had in store for him. That would be way too easy.
