Ratings: Person of Interest Draws Big Numbers

great ending, again! Person of Interest keeps getting better.

The Mentalist was amazing last night. That ending was so sad, but necessary. I’m interested to see how Jane reacts and if it changes his relationship with Lisbon.

I’d never seen Person of Interest before last night but I’m glad I checked it out. I’m not a Jim Caveziel fan but I like the rest of the cast, I didn’t realize it was a Bad Robot joint.

CBS killed last night! Damn POI and Mentalist were both astoundingly EPIC!! I didn’t know it was fall finale for POI. Its the one of the two new shows I am really into. With American Horror Story ending next week. I’ll really miss POI.

Person of Interest was so good. I’m a big fan of everyone on the cast, especially JC. He is pretty scary being that quiet and reserved. Last night’s episode was so good I had to see it 3 times. The writers and actors are knocking it out of the park. I cant wait for it to come back. I hope they get s2 too, they deserve it.

BRIDGET REGAN!!!! I watched it just because she was in it!

I enjoyed last night’s “Mentalist” episode immensely. The writer did a good job balancing the line of unlikeable Jane but still charming Jane characteristics. And even with even the secondary characters of the week were all nicely nuanced. Jane hitting on Lisbon was hilarious-definitely one of the best moments of the episode. My mouth dropped open when he asked her if he hadn’t missed the best parts yet and when he palmed her bum. I liked seeing Lisbon, who typically tries to play certain vulnerable emotions close to the chest, have the moment when it looked like Jane might be dead to reveal how much she really cares about him. It was a very moving scene-I’m talking written and played. In fact, Simon and Robin and the writer rocked it last night. From the comedic to the dramatic they owned their scenes. The whole scene with Jane and Lisbon in the hospital at the beginning was excellent and in a different way the one where he tells her he’s done, and to let him be happy and her reaction to that statement was just so perfectly played. Also, I knew the heartbreak was coming when he remembered everything but even knowing it, it was so well-done too. An excellent episode from a very good show.

The Mentalist had another great episode mixed with comedy and drama last night. the writers blend it so well on that show. I never watched Psych, had no idea this show copied. did someone on that show have their wife and child murdered too. Is there a villain as complex as Red John on that show? Does that show get as serious as this one does when it needs to? I had no idea. I think they both may be good for their own crowds but my opinion this show is way different than psych.

Well, first off, to everybody else who hung on while other people said that Person of Interest was a boring piece of mediocre entertainment and endured Big Bang(it really is hilarious) and Rules of Engagement(watch it only because of Patrick Warburton’s voice) just so that you wouldn’t miss POI’s beginning every Thursday, cheers! You’re so not alone.
Sure, the show has flaws, such as the review below titled “Number Crunch” elaborates, but we still come back each week for more and if we miss an episode, hurry off to the CBS website to get caught up. The double duo, or Fearsome Four team of Reese and Finch-Fusco and Carter is wonderful and the tension spent on wondering if Carter will ever catch Fusco spying on her is great. Finch and Reese are slowly but surely figuring each other out while trying to look as if their not actually trying to figure each other out is amusing, especially with the whole time continuum scene from the latest episode.
Number Crunch started off rather straightforward with the whole drug loaded, wrecked car plot and my parents and I jumped on board rather quickly, but we enjoy figuring stuff out ahead of time just so we can say that we did. The machine spits out four numbers this time though, giving a little diversion to the monotony of just one number. Honestly, New York is a big city; surely more than one person is in danger in the same moment. (One of the aforementioned flaws is that ALL of the people of interest are in New York. I know it’s a good point to one of the points that the writer’s need to address for a greater realistic feel, but really, I don’t care, haha.)
When Reese had to call on Finch to help with the leg work, I found myself enjoying the fact that Finch had to roll up his sleeves for a change, but then the his person of interest (no pun intended) dies and Finch gets a taste of how Reese feels almost all the time. Seeing how concerned Reese was for his… I won’t say “friend” because we’re not that far along yet… how about “comrade in arms”? Anyway, his concern for Finch’s safety is touching, along with a great stare of panic from Jim Caviezel.
Even with the commercial for this episode, I had a hard time believing that Carter would betray Reese, even though the CIA was all “we know everything”. He did save her life and so even when he’s standing in the parking lot with a sniper trained on him, I’m thinking, “Naw, Carter is gonna save him.”
But then all Hades breaks loose, and Reese is finally shown to be mortal. The conversation with Finch was touching and my whole family was teetering on the edge of our seats, pressing the imaginary gas pedal to get Finch to wherever Reese is. His total disregard for his own safety in order to safe his friend, yes they are officially friends now, is a good thing and the way Reese thanks Finch for his “second chance” is very touching. Then Carter FINALLY comes through and lets Reese get away. Better late than never, I guess.
On the whole, give us more CBS!! PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE bring this show back next year and don’t leave us hanging for too long!

Well I do believe Reese will need the Dr. to help. I bet the CIA guys will be looking for him still. He should get them somehow on Elias case.

I love Tariji P. Henson and I especially love happy endings!
