Good show November 25, 2009 E. D. Hanson (North Dakota, USA) I find this show very interesting and even educational in someways. I find it refreshing as a different show among all the medical, legal, police dramas on T.V.
Fantastic product November 22, 2009 Victor Barradas Hernandez (Xalapa, Veracruz Mexico) Fantastic product, this tv show is one of the great ones. Well done, great actors, great writers, i'm waiting for the next season, will be a must have in my collection.
An Enjoyable Schtick November 11, 2009 Cary B. Barad (Baltimore, MD) I decided to sample Disc I of Season 1 and was generally pleased, although the "Pilot" episode was shot in a much too rapid fire way with little or no time given to nuance or reflection. Subsequent episodes were much more coherent and consist of enjoyable "who-dunnits" overlaid with the schtick of a grizzled investigator and his photogenic companions who are gifted with teasing out the liars from the truth tellers. In all honesty, I have no great desire to rent additional Discs in this series, but was not sorry to have sampled the initial episodes.
MASTERPIECE in combing ENTERTAINEMENT & EDUCATION November 1, 2009 Franco Arda (London UK) `The Lightman Group' headed by Dr. Lightman (played brilliantly by Tim Roth) is a team of Lie / Deception specialists who work for government and companies.
The character Dr. Lightman is loosely based on the pioneer of emotions (microexpressions - or nonverbal communication) studies, Dr. Paul Ekman. Ekman is considered as one of the 100 most eminent psychologists of the last century. He proved what Darwin claimed centuries ago by studying several year tribes in Papua New Guinea: facial expressions associated with some emotions are basic or biologically universal to all humans (source: Wikipedia).
In the special feature, Dr. Ekman says something I can support 100%: the series explains many important aspects of human emotions in a couple of seconds while it takes you hours to understand it while reading a book. The makers of Lie to Me did an outstanding job in explaining microexpressions to the audience (including those who had never heard of it).
Fascinating October 23, 2009 Edwin G. Garver (Chicago) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
So help me but I do love this show. Of course the acting is good, that is almost a given for TV nowadays. I am enthralled by the science that is the premise of the show. The story lines are plausible, but speaking for myself, I focus less on the story line, than on the Machiavellian genius of the main character played letter perfect by Tim Roth.
