Talk:Lie to Me

Came looking for appraisal of accuracy

I came to this article looking to get a sense of how accurate the science is with respect to the expressions and mannerisms people use. I don't know if this would be original research, but if something exists already it would be a good thing to touch on here. Not in a huge amount of detail, but some. --Steven Fisher (talk) 07:59, 2 October 2009 (UTC)

Quick links: a review on Blogcritics, an interview with Samuel Baum on WGA-West's website, and a column about the show on Paul Ekman's website (as well as a review of an episode from the same website). If no one gets to it, I will. 74.119.161.8 (talk) 03:31, 29 September 2012 (UTC)

mising

Why hasn’t Emily appeared in the three episodes after Control Factorin I would call her a main character was Hayley McFarland busy or something

Trivia

Does anybody know, why they changed the set between the two seasons? There are a lot of noticable differences. Lightman's office looks different, the main entrance area does not feature the collage of different expressions of celebrities any more, rather that a plain text-logo. However, these faces show up during the show, when the actors move inside the building. So they still seem to be there, however, at a different location.

Another thing that has changed is the computers / equipment, see "Sponsoring" --Nurnware (talk) 15:07, 13 September 2010 (UTC)

Sponsoring

Did somebody notice, that the computers changed from mainly Mac/Apple computers to fake Windows-Machines? The laptops and monitors in season 2's lab all have a Windows Logo at their lid or back, respectively. I've never seen such a computer, as they usually only feature the manufacturer's logo, (like e.g. DELL in the lab of the first season). Does onybody know if this is related to sponsoring or has other reasons? --Nurnware (talk) 15:07, 13 September 2010 (UTC)

My baseless speculation: sponsorship by Microsoft. --V2Blast (talk) 04:07, 5 November 2010 (UTC)

Or they were previously endorsed or otherwise supported by Apple ("sponsored" would be in the public record and easy to verify), and that relationship ended after season 1. Note that the original commenter says that they were "fake" Windows machines, if Microsoft had anything to do with it, I'm sure they'd ask them to be much more overt about it, as there's nothing unusual or suspect about seeing one of the world's two most popular operating systems being used in a workplace. (please note that I am simply responding to the comments given here and I do not claim to have inside knowledge of the workings of either company or the show's studio) - 199.7.158.78 (talk) 15:32, 13 December 2012 (UTC)

Italian airing
