Season 1 Review: Person of Interest separates itself from the gimmick pack, not only because of superbly nuanced characterization and writing but also because of how it engages a post-9/11 sense of paranoia in its viewers. Read full review

Season 1 Review: A gritty, almost plausible winner, and distant reflection of Stephen Spielberg's "Minority Report." Read full review

Season 1 Review: This is the rare crime drama that revels in actual mystery, its dark, paranoid tone embodied by two damaged heroes. Read full review

Season 1 Review: So far, though, it has mostly kept its ambition in check, preferring to follow the playbook of a typical crime procedural, with a little more darkness and a little less energy. Read full review

Season 1 Review: From a storytelling standpoint, though, the real juice of the show is going to lie in its long-form arcs. It's a delicate balance to maintain, and it will be interesting to see if Person of Interest is up to the challenge. Read full review

Season 1 Review: The characters aren't terribly deep and the dialog doesn't take advantage of Emerson's and Caviezel's acting chops. Read full review

Season 1 Review: There isn't a single interesting person in CBS's dud-on-arrival Person of Interest; at best, there's only a single interesting idea. Read full review

This is a very interesting show that captures the imagination of using AI to predict and solve a crime.

This serie is absolutely amazing. The first season might be a little bit plain but the seasons after that are sci fi masterpieces.This show handels AI in a new fashion. For every sci fi fanatic a must watch.

One of the most underrated series of all time, the base story is really good and season after season the world really opens up, it does have some filler episodes, but overall a brilliant series.
