Trivia:
Kay Panabaker played Emily Lightman for the pilot episode. Her one scene was opposite Tim Roth begging him not to use "covert science" on her date for the evening. After filming she was recast with Hayley McFarland playing Emily. The scene was re-shot and the aired version featured McFarland. Best Buy however gave customers a free DVD in early 2009 with the "Lie To Me" pilot on it. This version featured Panabaker. more

This is a surprisingly great show!, 5 March 2009
9/10
Author: elmer_stenmarck from Sweden

A show which turned out to be a lot better than I though. There are lots of "Cop-shows" out there, although they are seldom something special. But this! This is a great show with great actors and a story that for once is different. Tim Roth does a really good job, so does the other less well-known actors.

What makes this show special is probably the shows protagonist (Tim Roth). He is special, socially "disabled", but still so powerful with wisdom and in a strange way guidance. A similar example could be CSI's William Petersen.

I strongly recommend this show for people whom enjoy watching shows like CSI, Numb3rs and similar ones!
