Person of Interest (TV Series) Til Death (2012) User Reviews

Silly and Funny Episode

[claudio_carvalho · 8/10 · 23 February 2024]

The Machine delivers the numbers of Daniel and Sabrina Drake, who own a publishing firm. Daniel was a poor man and Sabrina was born in silver spoon; together they built their firm and now they are wealthy. There is a buyer interested in the firm and Daniel wants to sell the firm, but Sabrina does not agree. Reese and Finch believe that the leader of the Maryland militia, Wade Huggins, wants to kill them since he was exposed by the Drake's firm. But soon Reese finds that Daniel wants to kill his wife. Then he saves Daniel from an assassination hired by Sabrina; therefore, each one wants to kill each other. Reese is afraid of collateral damage and kidnaps them both to resolve the situation.

"Till Death" is a silly, but funny romantic episode of "Person of Interest". The situation of Daniel and Sabrina Drake in the end is absolutely corny. Finch and Grace is very romantic; Fusco's date is funny and Carter schedules a dinner with Detective Cal Beecher, but we do not see. My vote is eight.

Title (Brazil): "Til Death"

Weird Scary Filler Episode

[nightringer-76840 · 9/10 · 17 December 2023]

Among all PoI filler episode, Til Death is the most unexpected episode. The story of love in marriage that turned deadly with hatred. Husband and wife both hired assasin to kill the other. Regardless how illogical, it is a common act of hatred that becomes a trend nowadays. Most couples hired hungry lawyers, but this couple hired assassins. When money gets in the way of love, death is one common denominator that separate hatred in love.

While in the flashback, Finch recalled his first and final love of his love, convincingly play by Emerson's real wife.

Meanwhile at the presence, Fusco was on a blind date, an awkward blind date that got more exciting with a stake out assignment from Reese.

Reese, Carter and Fusco played baby sitter to the crazy couple, trying to save them from assassins they hired.

Killer does not necessarily rhyme with filler...

Again, one of my favorite shows with some absolutely brilliant episodes. This is not one of them. One of the problems with writing for network TV (for those of you who can conceive of that occupation as a problem) is that occasionally even the writers themselves get bored and want to change it up, show they can think outside the box. Sometimes it works. Sometimes it doesn't. The too-clever-by-half notion that "the machine" would spit out the names of a husband and wife having marital discord, and that said H&W are - ta-duh! - simultaneously hiring hit men to kill each other, may have struck someone as clever, but the execution makes this possibly the worst episode in the series to date. The cast deliver their usual excellent performances, and the unsatisfying plot creates space for a lot of backstory and characterization, but at its core this episode violates one of the main commandments of writing, to wit, don't cry to develop sympathy for inherently unsympathetic characters.

Person of Interest's Valentine's Day episode

[gridoon2024 · 5/10 · 19 February 2021]

OK, the Fusco-Rhonda and Harold-Grace (in flashbacks) dating scenes are kind of sweet. However the main plot is the corniest of the show so far. More often unintentionally than intentionally funny, especially when we're meant to believe that each spouse tried to "call off" the hit contract but couldn't, when we had earlier seen the husband tell his hitman "I thought you'd take care of this" and the wife text to her sniper "Now!". The series is completely stagnant at this point - the same things are happening in every episode. Kind of makes you glad 23-episode TV seasons are largely a thing of the past. ** out of 4.
