Let time not be wasted on the hating of pleasures!

This blog was made to host the television reviews and share the thoughts of regular viewers. It includes the reviewer's episode rating and his or her favorite line(s). The point is to break the monopoly of the professional snobs and bureaucrats on serious commentary and take intelligent public opinion out of the oafish chat rooms.

Lie To Me 306


A pretty good episode. Lightman is still a deadpan character, Tim Roth is still a supremely limited actor, and the producers still seems to lack direction, but a pretty good episode. For all of this show's character deficiency, it finally scored a victory with John Stafford, the self-help guru and cult leader who is this week's villain. At times I found myself wishing I was watching a show that cast him in the lead. Otherwise a pretty standard episode. Leaving Loker and Torres dramatically under-attended and wasting time on Lightman's overexposed, uninteresting life. No great pain or pleasure.

Episode Rating:
4 (Acceptably mediocre)

Episode's Best Line:
"The goal is transcendence. Believe and be free." - John Stafford
