Person of Interest: Control-Alt-Delete (2015)
Season 4, Episode 12
10/10
Fresh, different, opening a new chapter
13 January 2015
The trilogy is over - and the result is pretty impressive. While Ep. 4.10 was slow-paced with a lot of nice set-up, 4.11 turned out as the best episode so far. POI's trilogy is a must-watch.

Since this is a spoiler free review, I'm having trouble describing why I enjoyed the episode but I'll give my best.

To me, 4.12 was fully satisfying. "Control-Alt-Delete" indicated where this episode was going and they did it well. I'm not going into detail here - but they worked on some spots in their universe that needed attention while continuing the big plot that drives this trilogy. There's a lot to discover in the details, dialog and character expressions.

If you were expecting an episode in 3.10 The Devil's Share style, you might be a little disappointed. It is more like in 2.16 Relevance style, which I personally enjoyed very much. If you open your mind and like it when they change narrative for a while, you'll probably end up loving it (especially if you have and had so many burning questions about the many plot threads going on - they're finally fleshing out this world in the Samaritan era. It's actually pretty disturbing in a positive way).

To sum it up, this episode ended the trilogy in an intriguing way and prepared the board for the rest of the season. As always, they had an especially nice "final scene".

Person of Interest remains incredibly strong in all areas and I'm definitely looking forward to Episode 4.13 on February 3rd 2015.
