Dr. Cal Lightman (Tim Roth) ist ein Experte in physiologisch orientierter Klassifikation emotionaler Gesichtsausdrücke. Das bedeutet, dass er mit einem Blick auf das Gesicht und die Körpersprache des Verdächtigen erkennt, ob dieser lügt oder die Wahrheit sagt. Blitzschnell erkennt und analysiert er die sogenannten „Microexpressions“ des Gesichts, die allen Menschen auf dieser Welt gemein sind. Zusammen mit seinen Kollegen hilft er den staatlichen Behörden und Ministerien wie der NASA und dem FBI bei der Aufklärung von Kriminal- und Spionagefällen.

I would like to someone like Netflix buy rights and create in new episodes!
I just finished rewatching the show, and am still so sad that it was cancelled. It’s really a great show; I forgot how much I loved it! Made me rethink what people really are saying haha
The show started out strong. I was extremely interested at first. By the middle of second season I started losing interest as the episodes felt almost repetitive and soulless. Still finished it for the sake of completing it, but it’s not a show I’d rewatch again with interest, but might consider having it as a white noise in the background while sleeping.
I honestly could not love this more. My only gripe with this is the supporting cast that does not compete with Tim Roth and Kelli Williams who shine and are just mesmerizing in their roles, separately and together. I absolutely adore this show and I'm sure it would not be the same if Tim Roth wasn't so incredible in the role of Cal, who's not easy to like by any means. Hard rec for people looking for procedurals that have more bite to them than usual.
stole my heart from the very first episode... so sad that it had to end :( ;(
