5.0 out of 5 stars joy shared - joy doubled, 26 Nov 2006
I hope the meaning of this saying is clear. Usaually I'm too lazy to write reviews, but when you get to see something that good, you kind of want to share the joy: buy it, watch it, enjoy it!
We do not have Numb3rs on TV here in Lithuania, I just happened to stumble on it by chance. As a "somebody who once tried, but failed to become a pro of applied maths" myself, I considered it as a great challenge to the authors: to create cases, that can be solved by mathematical methods. In fact in some cases the maths does seem overimposed a bit, but it never, never leaves you disappointed. The plots are really good, there's not even a moment, when you'd feel bored, you get some good characters, not only the two brothers Don (who is with FBI) and Charlie (a professor of applied maths), who use different ways to solve crimes. Plenty of close-ups to appreciate the actors' work, if you are up to it. And this little moment at the end of every episode, to create an incredibly warm atmosphere, like when Charlie pretends he got interested in golf, just to please his father.
Just a couple of minor nuisances. The discs are packed in quite a stupid way, one atop on another. And then it seems quite unfair to have only 12 episodes in season 1. So it's "only" 5 stars. If not for these flaws, it might be 6!
A cry for help for the end: what about season 2 for region 2??? And it's already 24 episodes, as far as I know.

1.0 out of 5 stars Not One To Keep, 26 Oct 2007
I was really disappointed with this series. Each episode was so predictable that they lacked any real substance. The characters are all very boring and I couldn't have cared less what happened to any of them. The maths professor's greasy hair hanging around his face was pretty revolting too. I thought the maths element would make it that bit different and more interesting but unfortunately this is not so. I found it really hard to get through the series and gave up on the final few episodes on the last cd as it was just nothing to write home about.

After watching Criminal Minds this series is seriously lacking. If you want to watch a really good series with the FBI as the main focus then buy Criminal Minds and not this dross.

My dvd set is going to the charity shop as it will not be watched again. Thankfully I only bought this first series.

3.0 out of 5 stars Region 2 let down yet again!!!, 28 Jan 2008
By Caradoc Elmet (England) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Enough has already been said about the programme itself so I just want to make a comment on the boxed set... the Region 2 set is pathetic!

The Region 1 releases are packed with extra features including behind the scenes featurettes, episode commentaries, deleted/extended scenes, blooper reels, etc. The Region 2 release has nothing! Not a single extra feature! All you get are the episodes. There is nothing here which hasn't already been broadcast on tv.

The above is true of the Region 2 releases of seasons 1 & 2 which are all I've seen so far.

4.0 out of 5 stars A kind of softer and gentler CSI - a relaxing watch but very predictable
I rather liked the first season of Numb3rs and I certainly do not regret watching it, but let it be said, that this is NOT a master piece. Read more

5.0 out of 5 stars Another great show
I'm a big fan of CSI and the like where the bad guys leave clues behind and the good guys polish the clues up to hunt them down. Read more
