That was a nasty bit of teasing, wasn't it, Fox? You can't just end the show like that! But I should start at the beginning, yes? And not flail about the end and spoil it, no matter how much I'd like to? Oh, fine...

Fun, fun, fun at The Lightman Group this episode! Or at least it was fun to watch--I'm sure our little human lie detectors weren't having as much fun solving the cases as I was watching them do it. Anyway, as much as I'm growing to really like Loker and Foster (I wasn't sure at first, you know), it's still a pleasure to watch Lightman and Torres work together, and a got another chance to do that in Unchained. This week, it's Lightman and Torres off to investigate a supposedly reformed gang leader who's set to be released from prison, while Loker and Foster investigate the mysterious death of a firefighter. Let's go, shall we?

A brand new show for 2009! And one that uses human behavior to solve crimes? I'm so in. Not to mention there's Tim Roth in the staring role; there was no way I wasn't checking this one out. Lie To Me is centered around Dr. Cal Lightman, played by Roth, and based on a true story of a real life deception expert who discovered a new way to study body language, and used it to assist in solving real life crimes.
