So now
I'd like to tell you about one of my favourite TV series: “Person
of Interest”. They've made four seasons for now and none of the
episodes hasn't disappointed me. And that is an achievement, because
it's not very common for me not to be able to predict an action or a
conversation, this production always suprises me. It's so unusual for
me that I'm not getting bored with it.
"You are being watched. The government has a secret system, a machine that spies on you every day. I know it because I built it. I designed the machine to detect acts of terror but it sees everything. Violent crimes involving ordinary people, people like you. Crimes the governement considered "irrelevant". They wouldn't act, so I decided I would. But I needed a partner, someone with the skills to intervene. Hunted by the authorities, we work in secret. You'll never find us, but victim or perpetrator, if your number's up... we'll find you" - that's how almost every episode starts.
It's a
story of a Machine designed by Harold Finch – a computer genius.
The Machine was supposed to predict national and world's threats and
lead the government how to avoid these catastrophies. It includes not
only terrorist attacks, but also murders of “irrelevant” people,
which the government doesn't want to protect. That's why the Machine
gives Finch their numbers that he could save them. Of course there's
a catch – he never knows if he gets a number of an innocent
person or a guilty one. And he needs help because he had a serious
injury of his back, so he gets help from John Reese, a former CIA
agent, spy, and on general awesome guy (played by Jim Caviezel, so
it's nice to look at him;)). During the series they become best
friends and save a lot of people. They also use some help from NYPD –
det. Carter and det. Fusco. In the seconds season there's also agent
Shaw, another smashing super cool awesome person who knows all the
martial arts and how to use every gun. And she's hot and sometimes
(or maybe most of the times) she doesn't know how to act like a
human, which is funny or scary, it depends on the situation. If Mr Reese is a scalpel, she's a hammer - like Finch once said.
In the
second season there's also another cool hero – a dog called Bear,
who understands only (I think it was) Finnish (but I'm not sure)
because
it used to be one of the dogs trained specially on army purposes, but
it got to bad hands of some New York's mob and Mr Reese saved it.

The Machine shows also timeline which explains some plot |
They have a board where they put photos and other informations about victims and criminals |
And for the end something funny:)
I
really recommend this TV production cause it's groovy, full of
unpredictable action and humor.
