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?
I really love this show and was so disappointed to hear that it was going to be cancelled. I hope there is enough input to keep it on the schedule.
I love this show!!!!!!!!!!!!!!from the very first episode. is it me or does the hour go really really fast?
I like this show. I think it is different in nature from alot of the shows on and thats why I watch it. The script varies from most of the regular shows. Before they think of cancelling this show, I hope they move it to a time slot or day when they have nothing on cause believe me, there are days when you cant find a great show already slotted in. My Wed and Fri and Sat have nothing in my Recording Manager. Just saying!!!
Love love this show!!!!!
I really Like the show. I look forward to each new episode. Keep them coming
I think its an engaging idea. The premise is different, with new talent. I hope the network doesn’t cancel it. Its a refreshing change from the usual.
What’s with the overwhelming background music? Makes the show
Unwatchable . So, I quit watching
I really enjoy this show and hope the network will not cancel it
What a bunch of pretentious BS. This show really needs to get over itself.
Well, I have to admit,, I have mellowed about this show. The night it premiered, I gave a big,, “You have to be kidding!” type of comment about it. It seemed inane and contrived. I did not give up on it, however, and have watched all subsequent episodes. The characters have become appealing and the story lines are interesting. Some of the action still requires a stretch of one’s imagination but that is not unusual for this sort of genre. I think the network will support it and I will keep it on my “watch list”.
Great show.. witty humor.. and if they give it awhile to let their characters find themselves.. i think it will be a huge 2nd season
This show is AWESOME! I was scepticl at first, but watched the first episode, and Loved it! I have watched every episode since! I love the way they mix the genius stuff with real world activities. It really is hard sometimes or extremely intelligent people in the world to adapt to real life situations without the rest of the world thinking they are just weird. Plus, it really is hard for genius minds to be able to slow their minds down enough to let other people understand what they are doing. Plus Paige is really Hot! I also love Toby’s… Read more »
This show is excellence!
Love the concept of mixing the genius of these young minds
Please don’t cancelled
Give it a chance
Great show
Love the show, each time my son and I watch discover more of my sons’ personality, like the main character. I would love to find him a job like theirs. Trying to find others like him, rare characteristics.
Love this show. And I don’t hardly ever watch commercial TV being a news and sports junkie but I will make time to watch this show. Even at the expense of putting Sunday Night Football on the DVR
