TV show description:
This dramatic TV show is based on the life of Walter O’Brien. O’Brien (played by Elyes Gabel) is a self-proclaimed computer expert and an eccentric genius. He and his team of brilliant misfits — the Scorpion team — comprise the last line of defense against complex, high-tech threats of the modern age — Homeland Security’s new think tank.
Toby Curtis (Eddie Kaye Thomas) is an expert behaviorist who can read anyone. Happy Quinn (Jadyn Wong) is a mechanical prodigy while Sylvester Dodd (Ari Stidham) is a statistics guru.
Pooling their extensive technological knowledge to solve mind-boggling predicaments amazes federal agent Cabe Gallo (Robert Patrick) — a man who shares a harrowing history with O’Brien.
While this socially awkward group is comfortable with each other’s humor and quirks, life outside their circle confounds them. As a result, they rely on Paige Dineen (Katharine Hope McPhee) — who has a young, gifted son — to translate the world for them.
These nerdy masterminds have found the perfect job: a place where they can apply their exceptional brainpower to solve the nation’s crises. They also help each other learn how to fit in.
Episode #93 — A Lie in the Sand
Team Scorpion heads to Northeast Africa where they must carefully navigate a minefield in order to save the lives of local villagers. Also, Paige and Walter’s relationship takes a shocking turn, and Toby and Happy make an important decision.
First aired: April 16, 2018.
What do you think? Do you like the Scorpion TV show? Do you think it should have been cancelled or renewed for a fifth season?
This show is like a breath of fresh air. Sitcoms I don’t find funny and I wont get into the reality shows. More NCIS, CSIs etc.
Keep this show going. It’s great to have a show like this–fast paced, good plots and no sex and filthy language. I can watch it with my grand kids and not be embarrassed! The characters are great and the actors are perfect for their parts.
I love this show and agree with Ann 100%. It is so refreshing not to have sex and violence as the main focus or the “reality” shows. It is one of 3 shows I make a point of watching each week. Please don’t take this off!
I agree with Ann’s comments today. Well said! I agree 100%. Would love to see more shows of Scorpion’s caliber. Please keep this show.
If I could have but one channel on my TV, it would be CBS! Your additions of Madam Secretary and now Scorpion, fit in perfectly with the quality, unusual, exciting entertainment that you already have! I particularly love that this story is based on a real person! How did you dig this guy up? I’ve never heard of “a guy with an iq higher than Einstein”. Real “superheroes”! But with God-given powers! Plausible! I can’t wait to watch this with my grandson! As someone else mentioned before, it’s SOOOOO refreshing when writers and producers put the time, effort and thought… Read more »
Absolutely love the shop. Totally forget about it last night, was too busy watching my Oregon Ducts get their tail feathers plucked by Ohio. Can’t wait for the rerun.
Scorpion is a “Hit” show. Please do not cancel it. Nowhere else can you find excitement, thrilling, heart pumping action as with this show. As a Engineer and Chemist, I find this show very well done and fun to watch. It is a great family show, too! Just trying to figure out the next steps for Walter and his team exhaust me every Monday! And the Home Land Security Agent – Gallo, Ralph, and Page’ roles are like icing on the cake. They are exceptionally great, also, and help bring together “Nerds” and regular folks, on one night, by providing… Read more »
I love the show very much. Please don’t cancel it.
This is one of the best shows on television! The announcement contradicts itself–are you eliminating the show (A HORRENDOUS ERROR!) or are you continuing it? Consider the need of such a quality show and please keep Scorpion!
I love watching this show! I hope it will continue! it has such great potential!
Why would you cancel s great show
Like Scorpion?? Better still
How many signatures do we need to change this decision?
Some decisioms are just bomehead and this qualifys!! How can we fix this please !’
Keep it, good show….
Don’t know one person who doesn’t love this show and talk about it often, really interesting.
Excellant show don’t cancel it. there are so many dead end shows on now. So it is really difficult to find a show that keeps your interest.
Is there something going on between Paige and Walter?
