NFBT: NUMB3RS

[Gaz]

I like it.

Sure, the ending is usually rushed, but that is because they spend some time actually explaining the mathematics behind the “story problem of the week.”

I do not see how this one can survive long. Although “numbers are all around us,” I find it hard to see how this one can sustain itself for too long.

But I am enjoying it in the meantime.

Pleasantly surprised at this replacement series.

Wow. An engineer likes a show that features equations... gotta be a some sorta record there.


:p

[The Rick]

Agreed. I too am enjoying the ride while it lasts.

[Frosty]

Count this engineer as a fan, too.

I remember seeing the commercials for it before it premiered and thinking, "Huh..." (Honestly, that's all the thought it provoked.)

What channel is it on? What day/time? I'll ask Tivo to record an ep for me and give it a shot... based on the Gazomendation.

If it sucks, I'm never listening to Gaz again.

[Gaz]

CBS.

Since I got TiVo, I don’t worry about what day of the week it airs.

Gaz
Loves his TiVo.

[ENDelt260]

Love my Tivo, too, Gaz.

I just went to TiVo.com and put in a request to record a couple eps.

Online scheduling rules.

I watched the first two weeks, then forgot about it. Can't ever remember to add it to my DVR. Besides, Friday is Battlestar Galactica night.

[Gaz]

ENDelt360-
I am curious to know what you think about the show. It is not great, but it is worth an hour [or forty minutes] of your time.

If you have a DVR, it don't matter what night BG airs. Unless you...gasp...watch it...augh...real time?

Has a couple of Battlestar’s on the hard drive.

Has a couple of Battlestar’s on the hard drive.I'm trying to think of a way to turn that into a perverted statement.

I got nothin'.

I've been watching NUMB3RS, too. Seen them all so far. I like it. I hope it sticks around, but the chances don't seem good, given it's time slot (although I, too, watch it on TiVo at my leisure).

Anyway, I've enjoyed it.

[Gaz]

I’m glad they “humanized” Charlie after the pilot. I understand that he was supposed to be a traumatized genius, but a little bit of personality made him much more interesting.

Gaz
Sort of a fan, in an ephemeral, “this won’t last” kind of way.

[keg in kc]

I'll keep not watching the show for you Gaz, since it's been established that I'm a deathwish. Nothing gets a show axed faster than me watching it.

[DoucheMcCloud]

I too like the show (my wife was a 4.0 UCLA math major student so she really digs it). But the problem with this series is that every show is becoming the same. Problem arises, Charlie mis-reads the problem at first or isn't given sufficient info, then Charlie solves the problem. The producers need to show more character development and have a more "lighthearted" espisode, like the X-Files used to do (3 UFO episodes followed by a completely unrelated, humorous episode) or they're going to quickly lose the audience.

I'm in it for the broads. Cool show. It's a helluva lot better written than CSI Miami.
