My understanding is that all the math is real, that special attention is paid (and consultants utilized) to ensure that.It is a great show, even if it plays loose with the numbers.
I doubt the show would go anywhere. One of the things that keeps this show from being yet-another-crime procedural is that it is about the family relationship, brother/brother/father (and now fiancee, pehraps), as much as the crime-solving. There is no Numb3rs without Don or Charlie.Great episode tonight! Is Don getting burnt out? Where would the show go without him?
It's always recorded here and we watch when we get the chance. Sometimes we have 3 or so before we watch but eventually we catch up. My only problem is that as long as the show has been on I still keep seeing Charlie as an elf because of the part he played in the Santa Claus movie.
