NUMB3RS - Pilot

Television

Applying the sexy style of CSI and its many offspring, NUMB3RS tarts up numbers, digits, integers and fractions with a slick execution of zooms and flashing all sorts of relationships in time, rational and quadratic existences.

Instead of focusing on the blood, sinew and matted hair embedded deep within the fibres and grooves of blunt weapons, the glory of mathematics and equations strut centre stage.

Numb3rs is without a doubt, or at least in the pilot episode, a haven for spotting actors from all sort of shows and character roles. Sliders, Northern Exposure, The O.C., Ally McBeal and Dear John. That's too many times and years in front of the brain warming machine. Too many.

Cracking the case of a serial rapist, it's all wide open with the first episode nailing the location of their perpetrator. So why bother making any more equations for the police cops and federal agents? What other applications can they find?
