This season, CBS has moved Person of Interest to Tuesday nights. Will the ratings fall off as a result or will they grow because of a stronger lead-in? Let’s wait and see.
On Person of Interest, former CIA officer John Reese (Jim Caviezel) and billionaire Harold Finch (Michael Emerson) continue to work together to prevent violent crimes in the Big Apple. Taraji P. Henson, Kevin Chapman, Sarah Shahi, and Amy Acker round out the cast.
The ratings are typically the best indication of a show’s likelihood of staying on the air. The higher the ratings (particularly the 18-49 demo), the better the chances for survival.

Note: Note: These are the Live + Same Day Ratings which include “live” viewing plus delayed DVR viewing, up until 3am local time that same night. Ratings marked with an “*” are the fast affiliate ratings and will be updated with the Live+SD numbers when they are made available. Typically, networks get paid for C+3 ratings which includes DVR viewing within three days of the original airing when commercials are watched. Those numbers are rarely released to the press.
What do you think? Do you still like the Person of Interest TV series? Do you think it should be cancelled or be renewed for a fourth season?
The “background” music is way too loud. Drowns out the dialog. Is this intentional and if so why? It almost makes the show unwatchable. Certainly unenjoyable.
I agree with the loud noise that so called music is trying to do, only turns me off
This is the BEST series that has been on since Star Trek, so I am dating myself. But just had to get my two cents in ; the character development is excellent. I really love every angle of this production. Keep up the great work. A fan
If I was a betting man , I’d swear I saw JIM CAVIEZEL (Reese) , on TV during a mass with the pope in Philly.
I can’t believe that cbs cancel this great series, I myself find confort that I’m not the only one that lives double lives.
Please do not cancel “Person Of Interst”. I am not exaggerating! That show is the best one TV, hands down. Might need to light a (small fire), under the writers, but not a whole lot. Maby give him another love interests in a good woman, or not. Maybe for one of the others. Writers could run with that one in many directions. But it is the best one. Can’t wait from one week to the next, just to see what happens next the next week. It really is the best one going. Just wrong to take it off. I really… Read more »
While some may have stated they thought the show has gotten too complex to follow, I don’t see it, though it requires one pays attention. It has one of the best storylines of any regular show on presently. I hope they renew for next year, cuz they left a lot of loose ends and managed to save the machine, so it seems hopeful.
I used to like Person of Interest, but it has become too complicated. Not only that, but the music drowns out the dialog (especially Caviezel’s mumbling) so the plot becomes unfathomable. Get rid of the music, or get rid of the show.
I agree 100% the talk to soft and they think that noise makes it more interesting. Wrong answer. John talks soft and sometimes you don’t get his last word. OK I’m older. we won’t be watching next year
This will probably be my last last comment on the subject. Just binged watched Empire on FOX, particularly last night’s John Singleton directed episode. Love the Cookie Momster! It seems as though the producers of Person of Interest did Miss Taraji P. Henson a favor. On behalf of the viewers of Empire, thank you.
She asked to be let out of the show or had only agreed to the number of seasons she did. She said it was always planned to be a limited run for her at her discretion.She had bigger plans.
I love this series, it’s the best .. .. the whole family love to watch .. can not wait to watch every episode .. I hope you continue its production .. All thanks to all the working groups in directing and producing
And THE great performance of both Jim Caviezel & Michael Emerson
I would like the show to keep going. WHAT I DID LIKE IS THAT SO CALL MUSIC, TO IT IS NOTHING BUT NOISE. YOU CAN’T EVEN HEAR WHAT THE ACTORS ARE SAYING. Why do the have to blow our ears off. I think you need to put that so called music director in a room put the head set on him and turn it up full blast, so he can see how it sounds. He don’t know beans about music. this isn’t even making you feel the excitement. Oh well you won’t change all the other show are about the… Read more »
The first sign that you’re getting too old is when the music seems to be too loud. Uh, oh … .
we’ll we will see how you like it when you can’t hear at all. All this loud noise is killing
your hearing fast. I’m old I agree but I like this show but can’t enjoy it when they play all that loud noise it is not music in my book. So I still say cut the music down a lot.
