canceled + renewed TV shows - TV Series Finale

   

Perception

TNT TV series PerceptionNetwork: TNT
Episodes: 39 (hour)
Seasons: Three

TV show dates: July 9, 2012 — March 17, 2015
Series status: Cancelled

Performers include: Eric McCormack, Rachael Leigh Cook, Arjay Smith, Kelly Rowan, and LeVar Burton.

TV show description:      
This TV show revolves around Doctor Daniel Pierce (Eric McCormack), an eccentric and brilliant neuroscience professor. Unfortunately, his mind is also damaged and he suffers from paranoid schizophrenia.

Pierce struggles with hallucinations and paranoid delusions brought on by his schizophrenia. Oddly though, he considers some of his hallucinations to be a gift. They occasionally allow him to make connections that his conscious mind can’t yet process. At other times, the hallucinations become Pierce’s greatest curse, leading him to behave in irrational, potentially dangerous ways.

Still, he’s recruited by FBI agent Kate Moretti (Rachael Leigh Cook) to help solve complex cases. Pierce has an intimate knowledge of human behavior and a masterful understanding of the way the mind works. He also has an uncanny ability to see patterns and can look past people’s conscious emotions to see what lies beneath. Kate is Pierce’s former student and, unlike her colleagues, she’s willing to look past his peculiarities.

Pierce’s mental condition and offbeat manner make it difficult for him to achieve the close friendships and intimate relationships he craves.

Those close to him include Max Lewicki (Arjay Smith), his teaching assistant. Max’s primary job is to keep Pierce in line and on task, whether that means grading midterms or laying out his boss’ wardrobe for the day. Natalie Vincent (Kelly Rowan) is Pierce’s best friend and every bit his intellectual equal. Paul Haley (LeVar Burton) is the dean at Pierce’s university and one of his few friends.

Pierce is in his element when solving an intricate puzzle or a coded message. But in unfamiliar situations, he can quickly become overwhelmed, and only his favorite music and a crossword puzzle have the power to make things right again.

Series Finale:     
Episode #39 — Run
When Moretti goes missing the day of her wedding, Pierce and Donnie set off in pursuit of the runaway bride. They soon learn that Kate has been abducted by a dangerous person from Pierce’s own past. Pierce and Donnie risk everything to save Moretti before it’s too late.
First aired: March 17, 2015

I THINK IT’S A SHAME NO MORE “PERCEPTION”. I LOVE PSYCHOLOGICAL DRAMAS RATHER THAN USUAL RUN OF THE MILL ‘SAME OLD’ STUFF.

GOOD ACTORS, INTERESTING STORIES. I WILL TRY TO BUY DVD…

I USED TO LIKE “DEXTER” TOO .

Ps. It’s inspired me to do an online course on OPEN UNIVERSITY, on mental health and psychological conditions. Autism and aspergers can sometimes be a POSITIVE thing for example !!!

More shows like Perception please !!!

It’s one of the best tv-shows Ive ever seen. The perfect play of Eric McCormack, and I can’t imagine another Daniel Piers as that played by Eric McCormack. Cancellation of show was stupid decision. As it is the sole tv-show full of sense with a lot of really interesting and fascinating facts. This Tv-show and Daniel Piers character made me to get into neuropsychology and to see how incredible and entertaining the science can be. All TV-show is really full of humor, humaneness, interesting characters. It shows really life episodes and makes other people to think about the choice, about… Read more »

Unfortunate cancellation of a great show. The premise was a refreshing twist to the authoritarian models of cop/fbi shows. But alas, people had to think, and they also had to think about thinking, which is a big no-no for the braindead majority of the population. This is one show I would love to see come back. If only our comments here meant anything.

Really enjoyed Perception. Hate that it was cancelled without even an ending. Anything cerebral will never last.

Yet again another good show cancelled. What is wrong with these networks cancelling shows that people actually like to watch. Plus cancelling them right in the middle of the series with out giving it an ending.
