I would also like more episodes - but alas and ah. The series is extremely interesting and informative - and this is its highlight. A kind of interrogator-investigator. As for the "experts" in the field of reading emotions - haha three times. You also say that the girls who watched, say, Sailor Moon will "fight" in the name of the Moon, throw Tiaras and beat all the bad guys with wands.
Because these are the features of age) By reacting differently, he will push her away, and she will never be honest again, and he understands this. Cal wants to be his daughter's friend, not an enemy)
@prostokvashka8: because he has already behaved differently and for three seasons he has been learning to live with the fact that his daughter is growing up, becoming a woman and not stupid. Well, it's perfectly clear here that she was making fun of him.
I love this series, seriously, I don't even think I've slipped. but the ending. what's wrong? why does it end like a regular episode? The ending should be epic
We are writing to you from 2025, having moved to 2018, Tim Roth has almost completed negotiations to return to the role. We need to wait a little longer.
@mrstrolface: Greetings from January 2020. How many times I watch the series. I know everything by heart, but it's always interesting to watch it again.
It's a great series!!! I've always loved reading people's moods from their faces, and after watching the series, I became interested in the possibilities of hiding and detecting lies. I started reading Paul Ekman's books, and I got hooked. I hope that the return of the series will take place.
@lwendigol: I usually skip such stupid comments, but, my God, who made you suffer terribly watching a terribly boring series? from the opera "the mice cried but continued to eat the cactus"
@annavoloshenko: just for show. sometimes you start watching a dead series, so that it can be postponed in the viewed ones, and it turns out to be feces, but the first season has already been watched, and then you watch and watch and watch, wiping away the bloody tears...
I was even surprised when I realized that the episode was over. It's too rough. But if we talk about the series, then half of the third season seems very boring to me, but then everything got better. However, the best episode, in my opinion, remained in the first season (12). By analogy with her, I expected something more exciting from this series. But somehow everything got tangled up ... and yet, with the exception of some episodes, the series is good :)
@id162510867: I advise you to watch "The Legend of the Pianist".. That's where Tim's mouth really opened.. an unforgettable movie, with an incredible atmosphere and wonderful musical accompaniment. One of the best films in its genre!
And during the entire third season, I missed Ben (the FBI agent from the second season). Maybe, of course, the character has outlived himself, but for some reason I missed him in the Lightman group)
@hosh: It's so strange that they merge the characters. In the first season, if I'm not mistaken, the Tores guy was leaked. Maybe I don't remember, but no one seemed to explain his fate.
I've been waiting for the last moment for almost the entire series. I hope that when the sequel is shot in 2016, they will start with it. And it will be even more interesting to watch.
The series is unrealistically cool, there have been episodes where I didn't understand everything, but that's what gets me. I really hope and expect that the sequel will be filmed, because the last episode seems to have been cut off.
I really enjoyed season 3! It may even be slightly larger than the previous ones. But to be honest, I watched the series in several approaches, because sometimes it got boring, and I abandoned it. But the underlying thoughts and relationships of the characters are very well thought out. Especially Cal-Gillian and Cal-Emily. And indeed, the plot was cut too short. Yes, and Torres and Locker were too few at the end, they didn't have time to open. I was waiting for something interesting..
@Shuu: I also watched it in one gulp. Sometime in 2014, I started, and when I got to season 3, I quit Then I started from the very beginning in the fall of either 2020 or 2021 and just finished today. I don't know why it turned out that way, because the series is quite interesting.
The series is very interesting and informative. By the way, if you really follow some of the "instructions" from the series, then you can really see the lie ... but we ended on an incomprehensible note, it's a pity...
I started watching the series precisely because of the verbal decoding of facial expressions and everything else. By the end of the third season, the writers were focusing more and more on action and less on direct lie detection. However, it's still a pity that it ended)
I'm also sorry that the series was shut down and the plot was cut short. Maybe this is better than stretching for 10 seasons and muddying the relationship between all the main characters in a row with subsequent triple pregnancies and divorces?..
I was terribly afraid that someone would get killed, and the series would be over. And here's a good ending, you can even hope that Cal and Jill will work out.
one of my favorite TV shows. actually, there are a lot of lessons on psychology and human facial expressions, which was very exciting :) I'm glad that everything ended in a happy ending, but I desperately want to continue.
The series is great, Tim Roth played amazing, his facial expressions are amazing. It's sad that it's over and we won't see the continuation of the series, and Foster and Lightman's relationship will develop.
It's a good series. Tim Roth, who very coolly plays his character of the main character Dr. Cal Lightman, or just a Pussy Man, because where he didn't go and who didn't start talking to, he knows who lied to him and when. 5 out of 5 p.s. it's a pity that we didn't finish the series.
When I was choosing what to start watching, I settled on this series, and it so happened that I did not lose. The series just got hooked from the very first episode, and it would seem that I just turned on the first episode, but now I'm already watching the last episode of the last season. The actors are just without words. <3> I really enjoyed the character development throughout the season * however, it's a pity that some of them were leaked* There are quite a few dynamic series, which it's a feat to take your eyes off! *ehmoibessonnye girls* Now I don't even know how to start watching a new series when I absolutely don't want this unfinished "Lie to me" to end... When I read the comments about a possible sequel in the 15th year, or even at 16, I shed a bitter tear in 2017)
The best in its genre. Charming with his idea. Excellent in character development. I've reviewed it and I haven't regretted it. Still not disappointed.
The series is great.Lightman as a character was revealed well, but...Unfortunately, the others-Emily, Gillian, Loker, and Torres-were not revealed.They forgot about the minor characters. And I really missed the main storyline, some kind of super confrontation between Lightman and a Sherlock-Moriarty-type villain. I think if everyone had done that, the series would still be alive.And so-alas and ah...That's all that remains to be reviewed( And I really wanted Cal to be with Gillian, she would have subdued his ardor))
It was the best episode of the entire season. Yes, and the last 2-3 episodes are on fire. I really liked and touched Jillian in this episode and the way Cal calmed and supported her. And when he came to this psycho, his pulse quickened... Actually, I barely breathed the whole episode.
How can we continue to live without these beloved characters?..((
Personally, I didn't have enough Torres and Locker - I kept waiting for them to turn around. There was a spark, and... where is everything else?? It is a pity that it was not developed.
A great series was unfairly shut down, which is a pity! I watched in one breath, and the episodes flew by so fast and I didn't have time to notice, like I just sat down and that was it, it was very sad. It is very, very unfortunate that the information about the sequel has not been confirmed.
It's a very cool series, I liked season 3 the most. It's a pity that the ending is so ordinary, as if another episode just ended. I was expecting something a little different.
It wasn't until the third season that I realized why the main character has such a surname, lie to me is consonant with Lightman! Everything is brilliant as always simple
I watched it. Now the question is in my head - Where have I been and what have I been doing all these years without Lying To Me?! But better late than never. The series really caught on! So much so that I want to watch it in the original and then review it again. The thought that it's finished like this and won't be resumed is just maddening. So many mediocre series are filmed for 6 seasons, then extended, and when something worthwhile appears, they close on the most interesting. Fox likes to do this, killed Firefly in 2002 and Lie To Me in 2011 - a low bow to you guys!
Fans of the series are looking forward to the sequel. The developers noted a serious drop in ratings after the release of the second and third seasons. In this regard, the filming of the sequel has been postponed indefinitely. The exact release date for season 4 of Deceive Me is still unknown.
I choked on the credits. I mean, the end of the last episode...? it's really sad that the series was closed, and it's a shame for this ending with Jill and Cal, you know, kind of "tease and throw it out.". It's just sad.. I'll go find satisfaction in fanfiction((0(
It's the only TV series I've watched for the second time. I usually don't watch movies a second time either. It's a pity that it was cut short. It's been a pity ever since, and I still can't forget the series since 2011. Laitman's relationship with his daughter is amazing. My daughter is my favorite character. As for Lightman's relationship with Gillian, it's probably a good thing that they left it half-hinted. I think their relationship would have been difficult and would have caused a lot of disappointment for the audience. It takes a lot of patience, gray hair, and love to babysit such a big and broken child who considers himself an adult and smart and does not accept the authority of others. And Gillian, after all her relationships, wants the world to revolve around her with care and love.
I knew, of course, that Fox was an asshole, but that was it. This is not their first series, which they simply close, cutting off all the storylines. To be honest, it's a bit insulting.
The ending was interesting, for three seasons the series did not run out of steam, not to say that it sagged. It was extremely interesting to follow Laitman's relationship with his daughter and with Jill. It's sad that the authors couldn't make a decent ending.
One of the best TV series of all time. Each episode was very exciting, I didn't want to stop, I also wanted to watch and read people. And the actor playing Dr. Lightman is the height of charisma, but it's a pity that it was closed very quickly..
Damn, it's a shame that such a cool series didn't get its logical ending! It was a shame, because it was obvious that the creators still had ideas. I want to believe that someday we will see a sequel. 🙏🏻
Well, what can I say in the end. The first season was just wow. The second one has already sunk a little, I don't even want to talk about the third one.. Of course, I would like Fox to do the same 8 seasons as in House, but it didn't work out. And that's where boring plots, incompleteness, abrupt interruption of secondary lines and their introduction into nowhere come to the fore. And so, of course, I watched it with pleasure anyway, even if it ended without a logical ending)
@x0m1ak: Well, in my opinion, House has also sunk after season 6. Any long-running series should be able to finish on time, and not suck the plots out of your fingers. So it was with the last seasons of The Mentalist, Castle, Bones, Supernatural.
@Koralain: Well, yes, House has sunk too. This is a problem with all TV shows, where one season has one smeared main line for the entire season, and each episode repeats the previous one.
- Are you the experts who recognize Lies? - No, we recognize the truth. The series turned out to be very strong Stylish actor Tim Roth in the role of Lightman is really similar to Dr. House - the genius of the hero puts others on a level below his knowledge. Tough, self-confident, but at the same time, he does not tolerate interference in his work and brings any matter to an end, Laitman does not leave the slightest chance for people who want to deceive him. The first season was the most successful, but the film did not slip into cliches on the wave of success, but looks with great interest. What else I liked about the movie is that in each episode, not one, but several cases are investigated, and these are not necessarily murders or rapes - there may be a simple consultation.
We would have revived this series. They would have brought him back to the screens, like Lucifer once did (in my opinion, then there was also a reason for the low ratings)
@id6091772: only Lucifer's transition happened pretty quickly, and more than 10 years have passed since the closure of the theory of lies ( In general, Foxes are, of course, very big assholes in this regard. You can't do that at the root It's cool when other channels/streams can "pick up" and continue.
It's clear that the series wasn't planned to end on this particular episode, but still, you'd expect something like this from the last episode on the list. And here he is a clever villain who is not so simple. Something interesting is coming, a confrontation between Lightman, who has only been with a serial killer student once in the entire series. But no. Everything is as clumsy as ever. A smart billionaire, instead of calling security and asking her to escort uninvited guests who are interrogating with passion from a private territory, allows himself to be cornered with almost zero arguments. And then he also somehow goes to jail when the prosecution has no evidence except for a voice message recorded on the phone, which also proves nothing. Classics, from series to series. The series is quite good, the idea itself is very interesting. But let's be honest, against the background of such procedures, it turned out to be very mediocre. The lack of a main plotline personally cut off any interest in further viewing, because I knew that I could continue watching after 3 years and would not forget anything. After all, there's nothing to forget, every episode is a different story, except that the agents of law enforcement agencies change, and who slept with whom. It's not a complete ending. But if it was closed, then it was necessary. No tragedy.
I really liked the series, the characters fell in love, it's a pity that the story remained unfinished, of course, I would like the relationship between Lightman and Foster to reveal more. But thanks at least for Laitman's recognition.
Well, damn, I was hoping that it would be closed down more epic💔 cool series, I really really liked it, the last episode is on top, but damn...I was really looking forward to the Foster and Lightaman couple🥺
The series is essentially an ordinary procedural, trying to get out at the expense of the charisma of the main character. It is completely incomprehensible that the Russian audience loves this project so much (is it really just that it was actively played on channel one at the time?), but in the United States it was always teetering on the edge, debuting as an off-season novelty and receiving only one (second) full-fledged season. All the features of Superman Lightman (he writes books, owns a successful company, works for the FBI, was previously listed in the Pentagon, brutally plays cards - he is known throughout Vegas, lived in tribes, works undercover in prisons, repairs motorcycles, raises a daughter, and so on and so on) arrive by the middle of the first season. Of the big disadvantages (which may have ruined the series, because many intellectuals live quietly for 10 years) I will note the lack of character development and any kind of central line. Well, indeed, the series can be watched in absolutely random order, the 5th episode of the 1st season, the 8th episode of the 3rd, the 4th episode of the 2nd, etc., absolutely NOTHING will change. All the lines that are emerging go deep, and once every 5-10 episodes, a Foster couple comes to mind./Lightman, Torres/Eli, and even Torres/Lightman are just as likely to be forgotten. Torres got a boyfriend, Bach, and he's not here, and he wasn't there, and Eli is looking for a new job, and Bach isn't looking anymore, and everything like that. And I would also add that it would be nice, in my opinion, if Lightman were wrong and would not be such a mega-cool superman. During the series, it was said more than once that this was an inaccurate science and many people did not take Lightman seriously, but in the end he was always right, and where he was not, he did it on purpose, trying to trap the criminal. It would be much more interesting if the audience wondered how things would turn out in the end, whether Lightman was right this time or not, rather than watching Tim Roth's benefit 48 times in a circle.
@RAMIL: That's a very good point. There are frankly boring episodes. There were quite dramatic moments, the attack on Foster, during the rescue. The maniac and Torres could also come up with something more dangerous, but as it is, only Lightman gets shot, taken hostage, in Afghanistan or something else, all attention is on him. The Torres guy went to the hospital and that's it, then it would have been better to die. Otherwise, the series escalates, approaches a little deeper drama and immediately retreats. But Monica plays that Torres and Gaby are the same thing. The character doesn't change at all, to be honest. Of course, ratings will fall if only Lightman's pretentious and not always plausible victories are from series to series.
It's a pity that they closed it, otherwise they began to show more about their personal lives... I think the rating dropped because of the start of the season..
So I watched this series. I'm glad it's finished, because there's usually nothing good about the sequel, there's no storyline, each episode is a new investigation. 3 seasons is quite good. The ending makes it clear that Lightman loves Foster after all, and the feeling is so pure that he doesn't want to spoil anything, perhaps when he gets enough exercise and decides what he really needs, they will stop being just friends.
It's not a bad series, as a guide to thinking. You can watch it for a change (it even reminded me of Dr. House). But the truth is, after the first season, all the charm and charm that were present at the beginning has practically disappeared. At first, I even wanted to write down (even just for myself) what a gesture or facial expression means. But in subsequent seasons, the practice stopped focusing on this during the investigation. That is, after the first season, there were no more comments in face reading.
But it was compensated by an interesting relationship. For example, such as Dr. Lightman and his daughter Emily. And Lightman and Dr. Foster. These lines were the most enjoyable to watch. But I hoped until the last moment that Cal and Gillian would finally start a serious relationship, because sparks sparkled between them every time. 😍✨And they're not just friends at all. She expects actions from him, and he is afraid to do them, because he knows himself and knows that he is not the most reliable person for her. He's afraid of spoiling what already exists between them. But if the series had been extended, I think these characters would have come to something after all.
Pancake. It's a pity that they closed it in such a place, but it's good that they didn't continue to merge the characters. Because very strong characters lined up in the first season, and then they started doing muddy things that contradict their own characters. The scriptwriters obviously couldn't handle it.
I really liked the series. Although in the second season there were too many boring episodes about the war or cases related to the FBI, and in the third season the ending of the episodes and the criminals were guessed in the very first minutes. It's a pity that there weren't enough specialists to straighten out the story.
This is a very cool series, if they decided to close it, then they made at least one more episode where the end would become clear. I really want to see the sequel...
Have a few good days) I am glad that the series was closed on time and did not drag on for 10 seasons, as many people like to do. You need to be able to stop in time)
I started watching it a thousand years ago, and after 1.5 seasons I got bored. and since Disney is leaving Kinopoisk, I decided to finish watching this series in one gulp. Interesting, but it really shouldn't have been extended. If the authors wanted the characters to mix the personal and the professional, we would have seen it a long time ago. It's obviously only after retirement that Cal and Foster get something together)) So there's nothing to torment the fans. It's better to let the sequel to Sherlock be filmed at last.
The idea is interesting, the characters are cool, except Monica (Torres), this is a purely personal opinion, she has the same type of characters, which later begin to annoy. But seriously, one season would be enough for the series. In the first season, it's interesting to watch the team, the technique, the plots, but when there's nothing in the series except a pretentious leader who can't miss, it starts to get boring. Everything is done on the edge and they are afraid to go further. Personal relationships are not developing anywhere - they were-fused, personal growth is not there. The past has not been shown to everyone. And all the moments at half strength: the attack on Foster, the hostage-taking of Torres, the maniac communicated with Torres, the call with a child's voice about Emily did not go anywhere further, but could have been a little more dramatic and emotional. It doesn't look serious, only Cal gets into the mess. I understand he's the main character, but it looks like this is his little show, and the rest are the background. Torres and Locker have been acting as furniture since the second season. There are very few of them, they are not really useful. Foster generally began to perform the function of a mother and a nanny. And screen time was transferred to Cal and his daughter. It reminded me a little of Castle. The family of heroes is interesting, but the series really resembles Castle with its light mood, family jokes and sometimes absurdity, but with such an idea I wanted something more serious. Since the second season, Cal has been constantly twitching, behaving strangely, as if he was sitting on something. As a result, the series was remembered for this - Cal and his antics. Oh yes, and he never miscalculates, and also simply does not respect his colleagues. There is no family there, or even friendship. We just gathered people, who eventually became props for the main character. Of course, everyone has their own, for me it's a one-time series. Probably it was not worth it after the contentedly serious series Mind Hunters to switch to this one. I wanted to see something in such a subject, but it looks comical against the background. It's like watching Castle after the Mentalist.
It's a good series. It is a pity that it was closed. I wonder why...I do not believe that such a project can have low ratings. Well, if you wanted to close it, then why cut it off like that? We would have shot a couple more episodes, completed all the storylines. For sure, the series had viewers, they were waiting for a logical conclusion, but definitely not such a finale as they did. And so they took and left the series unfinished. It's just some kind of disrespect for the audience and the actors.
By season 3, I was rocking, it became interesting to watch. It seems that in season 3 they stopped showing how they solve several cases at the same time. It's a pity that it was closed, especially at such a moment...
The series is beyond praise, they don't shoot them now. It's a pity that we ended the series in mid-sentence. I would like to continue watching Tim Roth's game.

He's afraid of spoiling what already exists between them. But if the series had been extended, I think these characters would have come to something after all.
It's a pity that it was closed(
I would like a couple more seasons.
And another sad ending... It's not as emotional as in Elementary, but it's sadder...) 🥺
Of course, everyone has their own, for me it's a one-time series. Probably it was not worth it after the contentedly serious series Mind Hunters to switch to this one. I wanted to see something in such a subject, but it looks comical against the background. It's like watching Castle after the Mentalist.
Well, if you wanted to close it, then why cut it off like that? We would have shot a couple more episodes, completed all the storylines. For sure, the series had viewers, they were waiting for a logical conclusion, but definitely not such a finale as they did. And so they took and left the series unfinished. It's just some kind of disrespect for the audience and the actors.
