Reading the news makes one think
that the Orwellian Big
Brother is already a reality. Abroad, the all-seeing
eye of the National Security Agency is an issue among Americans and allied
nations, meanwhile in local news the Philippines ,
always a copycat for hot items abroad, wants an
all-seeing eye of its own.
I didn’t give Person of Interest
a second glance when I first saw it. Jim Caviezel never attracted my
attention even when he was Jesus
Christ and Michael
Emerson was a weird match for him as a partner. The series had technology and some kind of
surveillance going on in the mix but as a magic formula, it didn't pop out. What
crime fighting series doesn't have surveillance? Cops do surveillance.
