TV show description:
This crime drama revolves around Carrie Wells (Poppy Montgomery), a woman who has a (nearly) perfect memory. She can recall every place, day, and conversation that she’s ever had. Unfortunately, she can’t let go of the ones she’d rather forget, including the murder of her sister many years earlier. Unlike any other event in her life, Carrie can’t recall some key details of that day when she and her sister were playing in the woods and it haunts her.
Years earlier, Carrie worked for the Syracuse Police Department and used her abilities to help solve crimes as a detective. Carrie was dating her partner on the force but they broke up, she quit the force, and then moved to New York.
Most recently, Carrie’s been supporting herself by counting cards at gambling halls, thanks to her perfect memory. Unfortunately, once the establishments catch on, they throw her out.
Her former boyfriend, Al Burns (Dylan Walsh), has since moved to the Big Apple and become a detective for the NYPD. His squad includes his right-hand man, Detective Mike Costello (Michael Gaston); a junior member named Detective Roe Saunders (Kevin Rankin); and sassy and street-smart Detective Nina Inara (Daya Vaidya).
Carrie and Al reunite when she’s asked to consult on a homicide case. Being back on the job feels right and, despite having conflicted feelings for Al, Carrie decides to join his unit as a homicide detective. She sees things that other people miss on their cases and hopes that, one day, she’ll finally be able to solve her sister’s murder.
Episode #61 — Paranoid Shooter
When a shooter on the loose triggers a flashback that doesn’t add up with Carrie’s perfect memory, the team at Major Crimes discovers that a nefarious conspiracy is at play and trained killers are among them.
First aired: January 22.2016.
What do you think? Do you like the Unforgettable TV show? Do you think it should have been cancelled or renewed for a fifth season?

They should not have killed AL off, and yes please bring it back!
Found this on prime and fell in love with the show. I can’t believe the ending. So disappointed! Show should never have been cancelled.
I put alot of time into this series! Terrible how they ended it!
I can not believe they left us hanging. We just watched this series from the beginning only to be left with no answers as to what happens to Al. So disappointing. They could have done a 2 hour finale to end it right. Makes me sick.
They didn’t know the show is going the be cancelled, they thought they are getting another season and the network cancelled it and they couldn’t finish the story.
I’ve been enjoying watching this show which only recently made it to the UK, so disappointed it was cancelled before we even saw the first episode! It happens far too often, it seems to me that the people cancelling shows have no idea about selling the rights to broadcast their shows to other networks, I cancelled my netflix subscription because of the amount of cancelled shows.
Should have had a better ending than leave the fans guessing what happened to Al, and what became of all the characters in the end.
who ever is in charge of adding or cancelling shows should loose there job this show and other shows that have been cancelled just to have a show or shows that are so stupid putting it lightly this show was great
I just finished watching Unforgettable. Great show, great chemistry between actors. I was So disappointed in the last episode. I hate when that happens. I invest my time and interest and the ending leaves me hanging. Please explain this. Reconsider and finish the story with another season
I absolutely loved the show. Poppy with red hair bring the show fire. The mystery are great. She has the devil smile and a rocking attitude.
I really liked this show and was saddened to learn that right after Detective Burns tells Carrie that he loves her, he gets shot and the show ends. I was like what?! I wish the show had not ended like that. Maybe do a reboot?
Loved the series and hated the ending. I would have loved more seasons. It was a must-see every evening for me. Bad decision to cancel.
Please PLEASE do not leave this series hanging open…like other networks find something that is a good series and you leave it wide open with a horrible ending for all PLEASE BRING IT BACK so we can have something decent to watch on television.
Please do more of the Unforgettable series! Best series ever. You cannot leave us hanging about Al.
My sister and I both enjoy Unforgettable.
It’s one of the good detective shows that we enjoy.
They should have at least finished the story line. A two hour movie finale would have sufficed.
Unforgettable was a good series.
I agree! I wanted the final storyline finished So at least one or two more episodes!
Yes I think it should have fifth season because Carrie should tell Al that she loves him too
I agree!
