NFT: Person of Interest Fans

can't waiit to see where it goes this season. I know the writers won't disappoint. Can't wait to see that sexy Root double fisting revolvers and blowing people away!

I know it flies under the radar compared to the more critically acclaimed shows, but I appreciate how cleverly they've built on the original premise. And any scene with Finch and/or Root is gold in my book.

I do worry a bit about the show's focus now that Jonathan Nolan is involved with "Westworld" on HBO. I thought season 4 was decent but not quite up to the highs of season 3. Sarah Shahi's absence hurt the back half of the season (I know, unavoidable given her pregnancy).

One thing I still don't get, so maybe someone can help me out: the bad guys who created their own machine: are they part of the federal government, government contractors, a group that wants to take over the government, or what? In essence, who are they? Also, is HR gone, or just under ground?

HR's in jail. Don't see them coming back anytime soon.

The group who created the other machine is a private shadow organization that contracts with the govt. to use the machine they created to "thwart terrorism". Meanwhile of course they are using their machine to gain more and more control and power.

Pretty much what I thought, but wasn't sure. I guess it's one of the apsects that provies it's a good show - you REALLY have to pay attention. Much more so than your typical crime/action TV fare. And for a drama, it sure does have a wry sense of humor sometimes.
