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?

Entertaining show–renew it, interesting concept recall sequences
I liked the show; but the writers started to tear it down with crappy writing about romances? They got away from what the show is about; solving crimes. Get some new writers.
I watched the show and it was good. I liked her memory scenes! Renew
I don’t understand CBS and why they cancel good shows. When they brought it back I was thrilled and am glad that one station say it’s value. Love it.
I loved this show and don’t understand why great shows are always cancelled. I hate all of the reality shows on tv. Guess I’ll be reading more books on my kindle.
Another great show bites the dust. I guess unless we are in the 18-39 group we do
not count. Glad I have a Kindle and a lot of good books since TV is so bad I won’t
be tuning in much.
Why do they always cancel the good shows it should have never been canceled I’m starting to wonder why I watch tv at all
I can’t believe this show has been cancelled yet again. It is one of the more enjoyable shows on television with an amazing cast. One could actually understand the plot and actors. Give it a chance.
I really loved the show, what a shame. Used New York City as back drop and showed a awful lot of unexplored parts of town, Cast was great, excellent chemistry
I really loved the show..how can a good drama get cancelled when the reality shows keep moving on ,, they r bad
I loved the series unforgettable. I am really disappointed that it was cancelled! I love crime drama … You can have the CSI shows I tired if them quite awhile ago. But gonna miss this show!
Can you really sleep at night not knowing what happened to your sister. If your going to cancel something you should at least have some closure not another hanging drama.
This was a ‘different’ take on crime drama. Enjoyed it……hate it cancelled.
that sux y don’t we hav more reality shows on wil stop watchjn cbs
This was a very neat show please continue it or bring it back. There really were not any others like it
