Video: "Numb3rs" Mac Promos

Sun, 23 Nov 2008 11:00:44 +0000

If you’re a fan of Apple’s Mac commercials, check out these two Numb3rs promos which feature David Krumholtz and Rob Morrow in their roles as brothers Charlie and Don Eppes.

Seeing these kind of makes me wonder what percentage of Numb3rs fans are Mac users versus PC users. Whatever the case, the series must have quite a following of fans who use both.

These promos were created for season 4 of the series, but whenever gift shopping time comes around, I am again wistful to see these two guys banter back and forth about math and catching bad guys.

Sun, 17 Aug 2008 18:33:16 +0000

As if the new season of Numb3rs could not be more exciting, Lou Diamond Phillips will return as the FBI’s 4th best sniper in the US. His character is that of Ian Edgerton. Check out this video snippet of Edgerton saving Charlie Eppes (David Krumholtz) from a dangerous situation.

Lou Diamond Phillips first appeared on the series in an episode, called Sniper Zero, and has been cast in every season except this last one (due to his filming schedule). It’s unknown now what his character will be bringing to the new season. Some things we do know are that Edgerton clashed with Charlie in the past, and has been known to possibly use borderline torture and force to gain information from a suspect.

Serious Numb3rs fans must look forward to having Phillips back in this role, as he has always been a fan of of the character, and the show. If you’d like to check out the Numb3rs episodes that really feature Edgerton, They are called Two Daughters and Pandora’s Box, both from season 3.

Sun, 03 Aug 2008 00:05:00 +0000

The Numb3rs Complete Fourth Season DVD is available for pre-order at Amazon, and will be released on September 30, 2008. Although the cover art for previous seasons have always featured Don Eppes and math genius Charlie Eppes, this is the first one that’s seems to feature math so prominently.

Numb3rs "Burn Rate" Airs Tonight

Fri, 25 Jul 2008 23:32:25 +0000

Thought I’d pop in with a quick reminder! Tonight’s episode of Numb3rs is called Burn Rate, and features Don and Charlie Eppes teaming up to find a serial letter bomber who may have eluded conviction in the past.

In this case, a key suspect is a physics professor who works as an consultant for the Department of Defense.

Later this weekend, I’ll have a special focus on Criminal Minds!

FBI Dramas First Look: "Eleventh Hour" Video

Sun, 29 Jun 2008 22:26:20 +0000

It seems CBS is dipping its proverbial toe into the crime drama meets weird science pool this fall with its new series, and Jerry Bruckheimer production, Eleventh Hour. Check out Rufus Sewell as Dr. Jacob hood in this clip.

Eleventh Hour follows the story of a government genius-level scientist, Dr. Jacob Hood (Rufus Sewell) recruited by the FBI to save others from fatal scientific experiments.

Marley Shelton (Grindhouse) portrays the character Rachel Young, his partner of sorts. Dr. Hood is more than a little obsessive about people misusing science for nefarious purposes.

It’s still too early to tell what genre the show falls into, especially with the science aspects. If some of the episodes have a “science gone wrong’ theme, it could easily fall into a sci-fi or horror sub-genre. Sounds exciting!

Hood’s character seems to have a bit of an eccentric air (don’t all brilliant scientists?), but his cool exterior seems to make up for it. After seeing the clip here, it almost reminded me of Charlie Eppes of Numb3rs explaining one of his math theories What do you think?

Written by Mick Davis, and directed by Danny Cannon, Eleventh Hour is based on a short British TV series by sci-fi scribe Stephen Gallagher. This new version is tapped for 13 episodes, and is set to premier on Thursday, October 9, on CBS.

Numb3rs "Pay To Play" Review

Sat, 10 May 2008 03:19:16 +0000

Numb3rs Review
Episode: Pay To Play
Air Date: May 9, 2008

<spoiler alert> In the Numb3rs episode, Pay To Play, the featured guests stars are Juicy J and DJ Paul from the Academy Award winning rap group Three 6 Mafia. Don and the FBI team investigate the murder of a rap star.

It turns out that someone may be embezzling money, and the key to the case is an extra iPod which had an equation on it. Also, Amita’s parents come to town to meet Charlie and his dad.

Amita’s mom and dad, Tapti and Sanjay, seemed to be making Charlie uncomfortable at dinner. Why did they bring Kapil with them, and invite him to have dessert? I guess he’s their pick for Amita?

Hunter’s wife seemed to be hiding something all along, or that’s what I thought, until after she got into her vehicle and it exploded. I love Charlie’s explanation of using a burned out panel on the Jumbotron as a example of the grid he was reading. Megan has taken some time off, and is back in New York.

2BY4 was hilarious when he whispered to Colby to please protect him, and then yells back to his homies that “they can’t hold me”.

Amita figures out that later on that her parents were trying to set her up with Kapil, who according to her is gay.

Overall, it was a great episode. I didn’t really miss having pouty Megan around in this one, so her being MIA was OK. However, it was sweet that Don was so concerned about her absence. Whatever is going on, from seeing the scenes from next week, it’s building up to something big…
