What makes this show exciting is the plot which follows a formula and a simple story. And some of the best movies and television shows have simple plots. Not to mention they have to battle the government and police as Reese is a rising as a vigilante known as the "man in the suit" because John Reese always wears a black suit even when fighting crime. So in a way the show is like Batman in the sense that it involves a billionaire and a vigilante. Not to mention as an added bonus they frequently bring up topics as the Patriot ACT and the NDAA, which is good to get that into the mainstream more. All the 4 main characters are terrific at acting, which is rare because usually a show only has a couple of people that can actually act on it.Check it out its pretty good. It's a mix of a thriller, spy drama, and police drama

Person of Interest
The new CBS drama Person of Interest is a phenomenal show! The premise of it is simple. Harold Finch(played by Michael Emerson) is a mysterious billionare computer genius who after 9-11 built a machine for the government that watches people around the world 24/7. The machine was designed to use algorithms to predict acts of terror before they happen, and it does but the focal point is that it detects other crimes such as murder, rape, theft, what have you. And the government doesnt care about that. Now the machine has a backdoor that Harold created it gives the social security number of a person who will either be a victim of a crime or commit one, Well due to injuries and age he cant fight this alone. So he requits a former green beret and CIA operative John Reese(played by Jim Caviezel) who is believed to be dead. The two then form a partnership where Reese prevents the crimes using his skills and Finch is behind the scenes offering tech support. This is pretty much the formula for the show each week they get a new number and the two go to work to stopthe crime. With them are two police detectives as allies.
