[How Did You Get Into Person Of Interest?]

@neuromom Even if you're not interested in watching LOST, at least give ep 2x14 a chance. That one is where Michael Emerson is introduced. And from the moment we meet Henry Gale, ME really is the best thing that happened to the show. 

[How Did You Get Into Person Of Interest?]

A friend of mine said I should watch POI, so I watched an ep halfway trough season 3. I didn't really like it because it was so serialized by then and I had no idea who all these people were. My friend kept insisting I watch the show, so I decided to start at the beginning (where else?). And from the start I knew this was different (more intelligent) from a lot of other shows. I liked the 'Count of Monte Christo' so I knew JC, but the rest of the cast was new to me. I loved the part when Det. Carter interviewed Reese, beautifully understated and intense at the same time. But I really got hooked on the show when Harold Finch made his job offer. I had no idea who Michael Emerson was, but he had me at "you don't owe me anything mr. Reese." (of course I went and watched LOST and anything else ME was in after I finished POI.)

What I liked most about the show was the character development, the moral and ethical issues, and the cinematography. I also liked the fact that it was a very intelligent show that asked the audience to pay attention to every detail because half a season later that detail came back with a vengeance.
