Re: [Sci-Fi] Person of Interest

I think that is the "big bad". Recall that there was another group hunting for the machine. When they found the location, it was an empty warehouse.
Now that HR story line is dead, they maybe able to focus on that. Plus, what ever happened to the goon squad that was hunting Reese? Why aren't they still hunting him. I understand people think Shaw is dead, but she still might have someone looking for her as well.

Hmm, I kind of hope we'd see more of Zoe, but we may not. The actress is filming the pilot to The Hundred: »www.imdb.com/title/tt266 ··· mg_act_1

Which sounds interesting, but I hope she as the ok to film her role in POI.

Ya the writers sure have given themselves a lot of angles to make this show last for a long time.

Even in the last episode,Harold's flashback to his session with his analyst left open some interesting stuff.

Yep. And recall Root mentioned that there were other people like John that Harold had used in the past, and lost.
So we know that John can be killed off in the future, and replaced. Or they could flashback to the other "strong arms" that worked for Harold.

So my Wife and I were walking home on Columbus Ave not too long ago, after watching "Catching Fire" in the theater (iMax 3D) and who should we see,....?

Michael Emerson (Harold Finch),....

I know not that big of a deal but I thought it was interesting,....

I have to admit, that I began to suspect that the wife was a "bad guy" once the gunmen came after them in the hospital. She played it waaaay too cool. However, I did expect that she was the head honcho!

I was surprised to see a new episode last night...........great show.

But I still can't figure out why Harold keeps Root locked up in that room,especially after the last episode.

She could escape at anytime anyway.

And who is Rudy?

I thought there were hints of more than one machine for a while now..? or am I mis-remembering -- quite possible!

Wasn't it mentioned earlier on when Reese was working with his Psycho partner for that shadow group?

And it is inactive as the status showed at the end.

I think is the first time they mentioned it as being possible. They may have "touched" on it, but only as rumors. Though it does stand to reason. That you'd have multiple machines crunching the raw data, then passing the "filter" data to the machine for final "judgment". Or taking it a step further, the other machines crunch the raw data, then make a "call". Can they order a "hit" on the data or should it be sent upstream for review? Thereby freeing the main machine to focus on serious targets, while the lower machines handle the lesser threats.

I thought the status went from Inactive to active. But the screen cut away before you saw active light up

I didn't see that ,but it would make more sense than just showing it as inactive.

I'm still waiting for Root to go crazy again.

It went from "deactivated"/grayed out to "unknown" / blinking red. And the more I think about it, I'm sure that the idea of more than one machine was mentioned previously -- like ZZZZZZZ mentioned.

I'd think the entire "machine" is really a network of them working in clusters.

Well this is getting wild now.......almost going in a new direction.

Root is free and apparently has control of Control,and Reese walks out on Harold.

But that old dude from earlier in the series who is with that shadowy organization is back.

That was hilarious.
Plus Camryn Manheim talking about "Plan B." (The Practice)

This show is really getting better and better.

The preview last week somewhat spoiled The Crossing for me, at least a tiny bit. Nevertheless, I enjoyed this episode a lot, but...

(spoiler)

Perhaps the show will move back to Greer and the Office of Special Counsel storylines?

»Re: [Sci-Fi] Person of Interest

Well, I did not quite expect that my guess was spot on within just 2 episodes of the second half of this season.

I dunno who to root for.
The Big bad "spy on everyone" government. Funny how life imitates art.

The group that wants to expose the government violation of our rights.

The old guy, who wants the machine for his purposes.

Root, who seems to worship the machine as if it's god.

Or Harold's group.
Of course, Harold's group, but I'm kinda hoping the guys that want to bust the government also wins.

I had a thought during Harold's and the guy from Warehouse 13's conversation.
Isn't it interesting that man kind seems to want to build things that can end it's existence?

The Machine isn't named "Northern Lights", that's just a code name the gov't uses for it, similar to how they call whatshisname "Clockwork" on Intelligence.
