The Devil's Share

What a truly superb episode. I was on tenterhooks all the way through.

I can't remember being so thrilled watching a TV show before. This had everything. Tension, compassion, action. What a joyride of emotions they put the viewer through.

Even though I had an inkling of what was coming I didn't know exactly when it was going to happen. That's the slightly frustrating thing about watching a show ten years after everyone else. You end up Googling all the cast and notice that some are in far fewer episodes than the other stars. Then you read a snippet somewhere else and suddenly you can't unread what you've already seen.

If you haven't watched this show then you must do. Put the first one on and you will be hooked.

EDIT. Forgive me. My review is for the previous episode.

The best show since 24 imo.

If you're honest and good at what you do, everyone admires it, from your friends to enemies everyone is going to admit it at the end once you're gone, that's the type of person i want to become, Honest, Excellent, Determined, Smart. Sad carter had to go ;(

"Just when I think life with you people couldn't get any weirder, one of you takes it to the next level." (dialog, Chapman)

Not merely the best episode of the series to date but one of the best TV hours ever produced in the history of the medium, (and this reviewer has been watching since the 1950s) Technically perfect, from the fast-open to the wonderful cameo by Enrico Colantoni as Elias at the end.

Special mention to Kevin Chapman for stealing his scenes and revealing a new aspect of his character never seen before.

Basically flawless. Not surprised to see Nolan "hisself" has a co-writing credit. (Reminds me of the best Buffy episodes, they always showed Whedon as a co-writer.)

Here is the thing, while every producer WANTS to take his or her show to the next level, few make the journey successfully.

This is the exception that proves the rule.

Finally we have the pairing that the writers had been teasing us about for some time: (ORIGINAL TEAM) - (CARTER) + (ROOT) Not counting Bear (part of the original team, works literally for table scraps) and The Machine (talks only to Root).

Watched it several times, and could not find any way to improve on it.

Something rare and special -- perfect television, as an art form.

If you are reading this review before you see the show, congratulations, You just hit paydirt.

I have been watching "Person of Interest" with growing enthusiasm over the past few weeks, and then they made an awesome episode "Endgame" followed up by another episode just as brilliant "The Crossing", which are followed up by the CLASSIC "The Devil's Share".

This episode hits all the right notes, with music, action, drama, tragedy, blended into a sci-fi concept not too far from reality.

The series as a whole so far has some ups and downs, but these three episodes make the whole series a must see. The reviewed episode is on the level of quality we got from the Breaking Bad finale.

Trust me. Watch this show. See these three episodes.

Not only a fantastic ending to a nail-biting sub-plot, but also a marvelous introduction to a beautiful new era; one that will seamlessly transition viewers into its next season with raised hopes for the show's future. This episode of Person of Interest grabbed the show from its ditch of repetition and placed it onto a gradual hill from which the rainbow is visible. The show has great potential which is clearly achievable now as the writer demonstrated his abstract abilities to construct a valid and entertaining story base which blends in with the acting of the characters. The next season of Person of Interest will undeniably be the best season yet; featuring the best characters we have met so far and possibly even a number of newcomers, which will leave us asking: "Who is the next Person of Interest?".
