"A very interesting story about a guy being able to read microexpressions making him a human lie detector."

"Like Sherlock but insight based on micro expressions. Clever and insightful."

"based off the true story of dr paul ekman's research on microexpressions. an amazing sleeper hit that was much too short. I would highly recommend it to a neurodivergent audience as it helped my social mobility and could probably help do so to others. "

"I really enjoyed this series! It revolves around a deception expert and his team that help desperate people and the police solve crimes. I only wish there were more seasons."

"House is one of my favorite series of all time. I think if you enjoyed the way House conducted himself, you’ll enjoy Lightman in Lie to Me."

"A great show that's like a mix of Sherlock and Criminal Minds. And the main character a lot like Dr. House (House M.D). It's super entertaining as the main character Cal Lightman solves cases and helps people by using microexpressions. I just wish there would have been more seasons but its still worth a watch for sure.

"To me, this is the best crime-drama written. I was super sad to see it end, and immediately after gaining a deaf actress too! This had so much potential. An years ago would have been a great early revival show for Netflix to pick-up. I miss this show! It's because of Cal Lightman (Lie to Me) and Agent Mahone (Prison Break), that I became a social psychologist! An do the things I do now!"
