    Interesting idea for series

    This is a really interesting idea for a series. What if big brother is really watching all of us through cyberspace? What if there are two competing entities watching? One of the entities is looking to protect and the other is simply power crazed? The benevolent entity is a small group looking to protect those who are in danger. The benevolent group is made up of a great ensemble cast including lead actor Jim Caviezel, Taraji P Henson, Sarah Shahi, Michael Emerson as the inventor of the benevolent protector machine and Amy Acker whose character has a unique ability to interface directly with the benevolent machine. The benevolent group has to come up against criminals who seek to harm others, and corrupt group of police officers who are criminals themselves seeking to further their own power, and the power hungry malevolent big brother machine with a huge host of agents seeking to take over everything. This show is never boring. Watching the moves of Jim Caviezel and Sarah Shahi characters in action is awesome. Amy Acker's character has quite a few moves of her own with a borderline personality. It's also interesting to see the benevolent group interact with one another. They can be unpredictable. This is great series. Best buy had the Blu-ray edition of this season at a great price. What's not to love?

    I started watching "Person of Interest" during the second season, and was intrigued by the story lines. After watching this firsat season, it answered a lot of questions I had about Reese's and Finch's backgrounds (at least what was revealed). Excellent development of characters, (although a little fast paced). Great plot development of The director and writers to have Reese use Fusco, and then Carter, and to keep each of them in the dark about the other assisting Finch and Reese. The early wry (dry?) humour of Finch and especially Reese really moves things along, always timed well, even early in the first season and continuing. The weaving of technology with the emotional well-being of each character is explored well for the approximate 44 to 50 minutes that they have to develop new characters and relate to the protagonists (mainly Finch and Reese, and then Fusco and Carter. Also, the early references to the spiritual reality that they can rescue some and not all is well-played out when both Finch and more prevalently Reese struggle with human error and other detours that occur in the plot. Wish I would have gotten into this in the first season. One of the few recent shows on TV that I look forward to watching.

    I loved this program from the beginning. Season 4 started on Sept. 23rd. I have not missed an episode and I like the show so much that I have obtained seasons 1 and 2 in Blu-ray from Best Buy as they were released. I plan to purchase season 3 in Blu-ray (recently released) very soon. I think the stories and plots and characters are very entertaining and very interesting. I hope the series continues for some more years to come. The TV rankings/ratings for the show were numbers 13, 5, and 8 for the last 3 seasons, which is very good. This indicates a lot of people tune in to watch this drama on CBS.

    An excellent second season for a great show. Although Jim Caviezel gets top billing, I Think Michael Emerson and Taraji P. Henson really make this show the hit it has become. Both are warm and engaging characters. And add a good balance to Caviezel's almost stone-cold acting style. If there's a weakness to the show; for me it has to be the lighting on the sets. I think it is too dim, and makes it hard to see and absorb all the little bits of the show.

    An Excellent and Unorthodox crime series

    An Excellent and Unorthodox crime series that not only continues to improve, but also takes risks in it's plot lines and character development. Evolving from crime drama, mystery, and science fiction, it not only maintains it's excellence, but at times poses many questions of conscience very relevant in the 21st century.

    This season carries on the exciting theme of the first, with John Reese & Harold Finch each enduring some trauma & helping each other through it, deepening their trust & friendship. New characters are introduced & some spins & developments on existing secondary characters offer extra dimension. A slightly darker tone than 1st season by the end.

    This series is wonderful-- hubby luvs all the action, not too violent so I appreciate enjoying watching it too. The plot is unlike anything else on TV at the moment, and really brings to light how technology is governing our lives. Characters ate likeable, and heroic. Glad we spent the money to have this at our finger tips to watch again and again.

    Love this show. Was never really a Huge Jim Caviezel fan but he is on Point in this show. Really fits with the times, when you think about Government Surveillance and things of those nature. If you like Good Commando type butt kickings then you will Love this. Also a Very Batman esque feel besides the whole Killing thing. Lol.

    Each episode is a new person of interest that will preform a crime that will effect many others. The machine that was buildt by a computer expert determines who is going to commit the next crime. It's up to his ex-CIA partner to find this protenial criminal and stop him/her before they commit the crime.

    This is one of two shows that I look forward to and watch each week. The other is Marvel S.H.I.E.L.D. These are the only two of all of them that I look forward to. Great shows with great storylines that are actually coming to life each day in the real world. Very futuristic in a reality sort of way.

    Worth watching. Story hits home about Big Government watching us. A teckie, an enforcer and some beautiful women allow this show to flow. Pretty good chemistry between cast .... especially between Harold and Mr Reece. Worth the watch

    Person of interest is a great new series and offers an interesting take on the mystery/thriller genre by adding technology. The shoe itself makes you think and if you like anything goyer has done def check this out.

    This show is one of our favorites. My husband works nights and we can't watch it together, so we get the season when it comes out and watch it together at our leisure.

    This series is still very original even in its second season. Each episode's story line is very compelling to watch with the unfolding of the ongoing arch of the individual characters' stories. The ensemble of cast is wonderful to watch as their relationships develop with each other. One cannot help but root for them to take down the bad guys each time. Can't wait to own the 3rd season etc. since it is SOOOOO much better to watch without the commercials.

    Intelligent show with an engaging story arc that keeps you coming back for more. Great character development that starve feeds you just enough back story when you need it. Filled with great moments of dark humor as well as moments that pull on the heart strings.

    Well scripted, well portrayed by all the cast ( especially Jim C ) but everyone is great. Nice background plot playing in and out of each individual episode, some of which are stronger than others but each episode is worth the watch.

    I first saw Person of Interest in random episodes of the second season before picking up the first season. Both are great and create a very nice story of intrigue, moral questions on technology use, and personal character development.

    Thought provoking in concept and reality, the efforts of the machine programmer and billionaire trying to help people makes an interesting crime drama backdrop amid personal mysterious. Great character development of the stars.

    Person of Interest is one of my favorite television series. I missed a few episdoes during season two so I picked up the Blu-Ray DVD from Best Buy. The DVD worked fine and the missed episodes did not disappoint.

    I really like this show. I had a few where I thought I was losing interest and it suddenly got much more complex and the surprises I was waiting for started to show up. I am now into the Second Season and loving it.
