... View MoreA movie that not only functions as a solid scarefest but a razor-sharp satire.
... View MoreA series about violent crime that doesn't glorify violence in any way...a show where each episode involves guns and knives, but isn't about them, doesn't focus on them, and even though the graphic violent crimes are shown in action and in photographs isn't out to shock you.A genius approach to modern television that offends as few people as is possible while managing to attract the largest audience...bravo. I've seen the entire six seasons several times and though i miss the characters i see why it had to end...they were running out of viable scenarios where math and science would be both understandable to the audience, and without rehashing old episode tragedies.I am jealous of those who haven't seen any of these shows, i would love to see the entire six seasons for the first time, again...
... View MoreThis show was great until they brought on Diane Farr. I have a hard time watching with her stiff acting and nasally,whiny voice. Arggh...torture! Just have to get through 60 episodes! I skim them waiting to get to the ones without her! The premise is great! Great chemistry amongst the rest of the cast. It is great to see Judd Hirshand Rob Morrow again! The character of "Charlie" is portrayed in a unique way. He has the social awkwardness of most geniuses but also the insecure little brother. Judd Hirsh's character does a great job showing the caring dad trying to keep his two very different sons close and appreciative of the other's differences. Well done!
... View MoreI wanted very much to love this show. I'm mathematically inclined, and I was glad to see a show that tried to show young viewers how math could solve so many real-world problems.Unfortunately, my enjoyment of the show was spoiled by several of its elements: The "background" music is too persistent and way too loud, often drowning out the dialogue.Diane Farr mumbles and slurs her lines, to the point that some of her lines are just incomprehensible. Combined with the overly loud music drowning out all the dialogue, this is a show I must watch with closed-captioning, so I can read what she's supposed to be saying.The character relationships are just not interesting enough. How many times can we watch Charlie Eppes kvetching about his dad or arguing with his dad. Don Eppes, the FBI agent, is a more interesting character, suggesting that the writers have a better idea how to portray an FBI agent as a dimensional character than they do a mathematician.And worst of all, some (but by no means all) of the "math breakthroughs" that Charlie Eppes is supposed to be making, are just exercises in logic that any good sleuth familiar with modern computer graphics and map displays could invent.
... View MoreThis show has a very far-fetched idea which is totally ludicrous that I never watched a second, until I was sitting down bored senseless that I decided 'what the heck?' And I was pleasantly surprised, its not one of those, 'awful' love dramas, like Grays Anatomy were everything is based on love....it is pure fun as Don tries to solve cases with brother Charlie who is Mathematical genius.The show has a great opening with the statistics and then the crime happens, then Charlie deducts the obvious from the complicated...in his head and then Don kicks ass!Thats the show in a nut shell...There's no heavy story lines, its just something you can sit back and watch without even thinking, you just let Charlie think for you!Great show!
