Enjoy. Don't shit where you eat.

Starts good, sometimes become boring during the seasons, but has a great ending, and i mean GREAT.

My personal advise is to watch it in a shor period of time to not drop it when the boring episodes pops up

>>84651138
A really great, underrated show, and also top quality waifus.

And.

It's not fair
Never stopped missing her in blue flavor.
Do you think she could be blue again? If I could make one movie or show come true...

So... kino, good waifus, good end. kino soundtrack, Fringe feels... Sounds nice so far. Let's hope /tv/ is right. Let's do this...

>>84651138
It's a "stealth procedural", in that it pretended to basically be a new version of the CSI formula with a sci-fi plot device providing the cases, but as it was massively popular (#1 in its time slot almost consistently, even when they moved it to Thursday which is always the worst day), and as it cemented its viewers it started moving towards sci-fi, which basically took over during season 4, and eventually got CBS to give it a half-length final season to kill it, as B was creating it and got all the DVD/Blu Ray sales which were massive due to how serialised it became.

It's my second favourite show of all time behind the reboot of Battlestar Galactica, it's not possible to overstate how great it is.

If you didn't like where it was clear the show was going by S02E13- Dead Reckoning, you probably won't like anything afterwards, it's mostly cyberwarfare with humans running around trying to help/hinder the combatants.

Lewd lesbians.

>>84660082
fully aware of that, still makes me wonder what the show could have been if it hadn't needed the stealth mode or gotten a bit more time post-transition
It's kinda hilarious that by the later seasons pretty much everyone's reaction to episodes in the original style was "nice nice, now can we PLEASE get back to the scifi drama" and that the persons of interest were the least engaging part of a show called Person of Interest

I have nothing but good things to say about this series. Immensely enjoyable and gripping television that will leave you empty when you cross the ending.

One of the best prime time tv shows that will ever be made despite some glaring flaws in certain episodes and the horribly budget constrained shootout scenes that served as unintentional comic relief and a rushed ending we almost didn't get.

All I can say is I'm glad this wasn't on FOX...

>>84659808
as that other anon pointed out, CBS greenlit this because it looked like a run of the mill procedural shitshow. That's also why the ending was rushed, between schedules conflicts and CBS not wanting to spend any more money on something they didn't ask for I'm happy we actually got a last season and some closure.
The ending was really good overall and hit me right in the feels.

So I wonder about the ending
So given that the new machine doesn't have the memories of the old one, it's parent figure is going to be Shaw and what happened to the first 42 versions, what are the chances of it going full Samaritan?

was this the show where everyone got kneecapped several times every episode

shit was hilarious

>>84660824
>CBS not wanting to spend any more money on something they didn't ask
even if they didn't ask for it, correct me if I'm wrong but didn't the show have damn good ratings?
Sure they managed to sneak a cyberpunk drama disguised as procedural crap right by you, but if it's selling why not roll with it a bit longer.

>>84660846
none, since that's the point of the final monologue

>>84660948
I don't know how good were those ratings, not from Burgerland. I do remember that /tv/ started making episode threads on the last two seasons and you read more often than not how a lot of people was watching it as a guilty pleasure at first and somehow sticked til the end because they liked the plot or some character or part of it's silliness.

>>84660948
I remember reading the reason was that WB is the producer and owns the show so CBS wasn't making all the money off of it and decided to cancel it, same situation as The Mentalist.

>>84660948
Not exactly how it went down. In answering >>84660760 plaintive cry.. The show was cancelled due to money.

CBS shared production credit for PoI and therefore earned less on it than other shows which they aired where they owned them 100%. So even though PoI was a higher rated and far more critically acclaimed show, after splitting the profit CBS was earning less in comparison to their crappier shows.

>>84660874
There IS a lot of kneecapping and over the top, 80s style one man/woman army shit. That's why I liked it. It's a nice callback to simpler times, when the good people mostly win.

Thats usually the case, I've seen a lot of well loved shows getting canned, always for the same reason as you mentioned. Everything more so now, than ever before, is about money if not in tv production then in film production.
