I'm always interested in analysing people and the way they do things, my friends say if I wasn't making films/videos I should be a psychiatrist (note: I would hate this), and so when I heard about this show I was really interested.
Having seen the Mentalist afterwards, I can say it is NOT like this at all, it is focused on the analysing, not the, hey this guy can read your mind, look at the weird stuff he does, things. The Mentalist is interesting, but doesn't captivate me, but I really like Lie to Me. It's still a bit obvious, the expressions I mean, because of course they are acting that expression rather than genuinely being surprised, etc, but is getting better with each episode, so hopefully they should leave the analysing up to you and reveal at the end soon. It's getting near to that now anyway.
Anyone else seen it? I think it's on Fox in America, and getting decent ratings, some say this is because it's being played after American Idol, others say it's because it's on the same time as Lost (I personally really like Lost and watch both shows). Either way, it doesn't look like it's going to be one of those 'decent shows that get cancelled early'. It's basically being promoted as Fox's answer to House MD.
