Person of Interest is a pretty good show. It starts as an above-average procedural about an AI that predicts premeditated murders and the people (both civilians and police officers) who try to stop them. Seasons two and three move away from the procedural aspect and start to deal more with conspiracies that try to control super-intelligent AIs, and how the AIs begin influencing and controlling humans to achieve their programmed objectives. Very good acting and a great visual aesthetic.
I actually stopped watching half way through season one because they were completely ignoring the themes they could play with about balance of power, privacy, etc. If they’ve actually started to realize that potential, I’ll have to pick it back up.
