Well, after I briefly review this POI thread, I'm pretty surprised that some Nolan fans have got sick (srsly?) and given up on this show.

IMO, so far it's doing well, outperforming many lousy TV craps in recent years. Maybe that's because I didn't expect too much in the beginning.(I mean, you didn't expect Jonah to write EVERY episode, right? And I don't consider the pilot boring or very bad)

There are a few substandard episodes indeed (it's not unusual for series) though, still the characters and their back stories plot get me hooked. Its concept might not be novel, but I just like the way they use weekly POI to reflect the emotion of main characters. Cinematography is also good in many episodes.

And just say it in advance, praising this show doesn't mean that there doesn't exist amazing shows like Breaking Bad, Game of Thrones,etc, according to MANY opinions in this thread before. Why can't we enjoy both? It's just different type of shows to me, and I only want to express how Person of Interest is appealing.

But in the end, it's just a matter of own taste. Haters gonna hate.

Episode 21 is just amazing. I know I keep repeating myself, but we get to learn more and more about John's past in this one.
Can't wait for the last two episodes!

Last couple episodes were great. I love the flashbacks with the back stories.

Also, I can't wait for Elias to come back in the next season or so.

That finale was amazing. Really the last 3 episodes were top class, but that finale was thrilling from start to finish. 24 style manhunts, enemies everywhere, great twists and a perfect ending (Matrix anyone?).

Can't wait till season 2!

The finale was very good. I loved it, especially the ending when he looks at the camera like in the first episode.

I can only think about Season 2. I mean, obviously, Finch has to come back, what the hell is gonna happen with Root, Elias's road just can't end there, Stanton is now alive, we don't know if Snow was killed, we don't know how Ingram died, we don't know how Finch messed up his back, we don't realy know how Corwin became so freaked and when she started running and for what particular reason, and most of all, we'll get to see how the Machine contacts Finch and now how it talks to Reese.
