Yes it has far fectched science. Yes some of the things are impossable But ITS A SHOW.. Why can't anyone just enjoy a show these days. In the 80s A-TEAM, No one died, no matter how much gun fired or exploses where used. I mean .. COME ON.. can you all just enjoy a show ON TV for what it is supposed to be. Enternainment.. Im starting to think that IMDB threads are just for people that have nothing else to do but to try to destroy shows that are just here for our enjoyment. Thats why they call it FICTION.. Come on people, just enjoy. And yes , they will be flaws....

I enjoyed laughing on how bad it was... Today was the first time I watched an episode and i was waiting for the 3 stooges to show up. It's like comedy interspersed with semi decent plot lines. Won't watch another .. ever.

Yes, it's a show. It's entertainment, and, for me, refreshing entertainment. The science, whether real or pseudo, is interesting and the show frankly wouldn't fly without it. I don't know how many more seasons it will last before the network axes it. Until then, it will one of a very select few I watch.

YES!!! OMG, I LOVE THIS SHOW! I can't believe I waited until this week to start it, (but that's what happens when one has a 200+ watchlist, lol). People who over analyze a show or film...UGH! When did entertainment mean, 'let's find all the flaws'? {When IMDB started up ;) TY 4 stating what I feel! 😀 I WISH I could meet Mr. O'Brien!

Impossible to enjoy a show when you care nothing about the characters or the storyline.

yeah it's better than A team, there are some reseaches behind some of the episodes. Of course the plot is oversimplified. Just like how CollegeHumor makes fun of realistic Hacking vs Movie Hacking scene. I mean if you want a high octane show, then you have to have actions, which is not meant for those supposedly extremely smart geniuses.

This is the reason why I think Numb3rs and Doctor Who are two examples what this show could have been. If they just want to show off some realism (notice, some realism that people can buy into while shutting down half of their brain), then Numb3rs is good as it explains what the theory is in animation and relates that to the actual crime. Or they should try the doctor who route as it's more fantasy based and people wouldn't take it as seriously as some story based on the true "Walter O'brien"

Then Why are you watching it still...
Its a fun show. If you are really that bored that you have to crash on tv shows that are out there just for fun, then what does that tell us about you.
This show is made up for fun. FICTION... and like me and others have said, yes its far fetched. And yes there is CRAZY things that can never ever happen... BUT ITS A SHOW .. Why can you just enjoy it.. Im sure you watch TRU tv shows, and others. If you think that they are real then you have a problem my friend. Its called TV.. Watch it and enjoy..If you dont like it,,, CHANGE the channel. Seriously, I mean come on.. did you think that it was going to be real life? LOOK AT THE POST SUBJECT...
