Person of Interest

Perhaps it is not the best TV show of this decade, or perhaps it is, after all.... but it is superbly well done and its script do not leave to surprise me.

 If you like procedurals, or police-related, or spy-related, or post-9/11 fictions, or an updated good story about surveillance and 1984-like fears, or terrorism-fighting-related, or..... or even if you hate some of them, or most importantly, if you like good character-developed, human-approached stories.... you must watch it! From its very beginning, Season First, Episode One, right through the third season finale, and beyond (I hope!)..... it is, simply said, as entertaining as worthwhile.....

If its first season got us engaged in the innards of the Machine and how it interacts with the main characters, and the second season explained us the threats to those characters, plus some new enemies both to the Machine and the protagonists, along with some interesting stories about New York's Mobs and thugs, this third season has introduced us the dilemma of the prescient artificial intelligence on the verge of taking apart the humanity, nothing less!

Same old story as it has been told several prior times, in fiction, science-fiction and their crossovers, but this time it is on TV, with film quality, and with new twists and turns to make it even more appealing, and even more important, that we can easily get involved with the characters. The script is really careful in that matter and, despite the shoots and the rigid approach that always have obscured spy-related stories, this one feels both natural and human-warmed.... 

Also to pray is the acting. Michael Emerson on its bests, Jim Cazievel who fits his performance like a glove, also his best, and an ensemble cast of actors who have become deeply linked with this series and, in some cases, they have achieved a well-deserved recognition.

All in all, a fine piece of modern TV, which is on par with other shows like Homeland, to name just one with some terrorism and special services involved.... The sci-fi elements, like the Machine, could not be as fictional as they appear and most of us would like them, after all.... Just think about the Big Data problem and the use of it for develop best advertising, the several NSA-related scandals...
