The most predictable show ever!!!

Now, before I go on this little rant of mine, I want to inform everybody that I have only seen three episodes of this, but those three where compleate crap. I have been able to guess the outcome of every single ''crime'' so far. How am i suppose to think that the main character is cool or gifted, when I could tell form the start who did it or that the guy was inocent etc. And on top of that, the thing he does whith the micro expressions are utter crap! Even I could tell if it was sadness or anger or something else! Its not hard at all, and it doesnet require some special talent what so ever!! This show is ridiculous and boring.

That's pretty much what I thought. Silly plots that are obvious five minutes into the episodes. And those ridiculously over-the-top grimaces are supposed to be MICRO expressions?

But in the second season it improves a lot. It becomes much more serious, and darker. And the micro expressions are toned down a bit.

Maybe you're another Torres. 😊

If they didn't make the micro expressions visible and obvious, the viewer wouldn't know what Cal or his employees were trying to see, no?

I'd have to say that House is the most predictable show. Every episode goes like this;

Person gets sick
House and team diagnose wrongly.
House sends a minion to break into their home.
House and team brainstorm on whiteboard.
House is rude to people.
House and team diagnose wrongly again.
House and team diagnose correctly, sometimes too late but usually just in time.

Having said that House is great, as is Lie to Me.
