A Quickie About "Lie To Me"Rating: 3 likes, 0 dislikes Paul Ekman is the actual founder for the Science of Emotions and most of his research and science is what has helped create the show, which is what the show is based on. Cal Lightman (played by Tim Roth as the head researcher of the Lightman Group) is a reflective version of Paul Ekman (that's just my opinion). Ekman helps direct the science within the show such as micro expressions, micro gestures, body language, and, his specialty, emotions. I love the marketing gimmick behind all of this, but I guess I can contribute to it since I am just as fascinated by Behavioral Science (Anthropology) myself. But there is a massive amount of psychology behind it all as well. Read more Review posted on Wednesday, March 18th 2009 at 10:47 pm

Lie to MeRating: 3 likes, 5 dislikes This is going to be one of the BEST shows. I never watch Fox, but I will now! I have been a fan of Tim Roth since "Rob Roy". He is an excellent actor and so versatile. I hope to see this for a long, long time. Read more Review posted on Tuesday, January 27th 2009 at 7:28 am

Absolutely agreeRating: 1 likes, 0 dislikes I totally agree with Mudcreek, as a matter of fact, I was going to say the same exact thing about Tim Roth. I've loved his work since viewing him in "Rob Roy" and I would like to add that I'm thrilled that Mr. Roth is not portraying an antagonist or heavy as he is usually cast. I have also wanted to see him play Jake Weber 's cousin or something on "Medium". I love "Lie to Me", though I wish that once again every character wasn't so pretty, wish they had more natural looking actors. Read more Review posted on Wednesday, August 19th 2009 at 5:08 pm
