Hi there first time posting I wonder why there is no 4K copy or upscale copy of the show out there this was truly a unique piece of television.

I love all of the seasons and the dynamics the cast has, but aesthetically I adore Season 1 for the darker lighting and somewhat sombre tension between the characters. I love just how the characters start to get to know each other and eventually grow into that comfy dynamic they show more of in later seasons. The show as a whole is super comforting to put on in the background, but I really appreciate S1’s atmosphere.

Season 6, Episode 3

This episode got me thinking about “The mass of men (who) lead lives of quiet desperation.”. The premise frames men playing Russian roulette for a chance at big money as “bad”. Western society as a whole encourages men to go to difficult and dangerous jobs that are often slowly killing them, only to barely earn a living; if they do at all. More working class men die completely destitute than anyone wants to talk about. Somehow it’s worse to risk the exact same thing for a much bigger payout?! It’s literally a show about math, but nobody bothered to crunch the numbers on that particular framework. Ell oh ell!

Nothing too serious but wanted to share.

At work, we have a huddle before we open the store every morning.

Go over need to knows etc.

Sometimes we have time to chat and catch up. Someone tells some random joke.

But today, a coworker announced she had a joke. About a cop pulling over a physicist for speeding and the man responded he didn’t know where he was.

Nobody got it but me. I yelled out “Heisenberg’s uncertainty principle”. Everyone looked at me like what???

I said. “I watched Numb3rs and it’s a good show to learn about things.”

People just laughed. So the joke wasn’t funny but the fact that I knew and was so excited to share about the show was 🤷🏾‍♀️ Hopefully we’ll get more watchers 😂

The tension he feels with the current world and the ideal world is so real to him and I identify with that. Who is yours?

Is the show anything like Castle/Mentalist/Bones, or something like that? A main team solving crimes and their stories dealt at the side. Watched the first episode and it didn't feel like it, the killer was not shown the whole episode, just the brother solved some equations and case solved.

It doesn't seem to be explained. The girl was killed because she got pregnant, but why that pyramid scheme guy?

I felt physical pain when they matched viruses by overlaying pictures of DNA, not by doing a simple sequence alignment (which would also look nice on TV). XD Not to mention when they pulled out optic microscope slides "with viruses on them". They got a maths consultant but no biology/forensic one.

Is the show worth watching? did it get a proper ending as it was cancelled? I don't to be left on cliffhangers after watching everything

I am trying to remember an episode where the reveal is that dirty cops were robbing drug dealers. Their justification was they weren’t keeping the money, but using it to clean up the neighborhood.
Was this an episode of Numb3rs or something else?

I’ve been waiting so long for this relationship to happen only to have a way anticlimactic kiss and to have Charlie freak out. My husband and I are having a debate. He’s saying Charlie’s little- what if she stayed for me - little meltdown was a genius problem but I’m straight saying that is an LA male problem. Ulgh 🤦🏼‍♀️. I laugh. I cringe. Come on, bruh.

I watched this show as a kid and loved it, but I’m rewatching it now, and one thing is really standing out to me: the male connection.

The candor within their conversations is so refreshing. I think it’s rare to see men portrayed as vulnerable or sincere, and this show is nailing this. All the different versions of masculinity, from Don to Larry, and seeing the respect and love they can all openly have for one another is so wonderful to see on screen.

The episode when Colby accidentally kills someone in the FBI office shooting stands out. At the end he and David are drinking beers on a tailgate and it is such a healthy show of support and camaraderie. Even a “macho” character like Colby is portrayed as being vulnerable and needing support. And David is simply present to his colleague’s pain. An amazing example of how to handle grief and show support for someone in need—simply be there.

I also love how the Eppes family is with one another. The men are open and engaged in difficult conversations. They listen with empathy to each other, are present but not pushy, they fight when they need to, forgive quickly, and know when it is time to put a subject down and simply eat some dinner.

I am pregnant with my first, and it is a boy. I’ve been nervous about raising a son in today’s hyper-segmented internet milieu; worried about how my husband and I will need to be to help raise a kind, empathetic, intuitive young man who cares deeply about life and others… and truthfully this family is giving me hope.

Really the take away from the show, for me, has been: be willing to be there. Be there for your family and your friends. You don’t need answers or solutions, you just need to be willing to sit alongside and listen.

Anyways, personal musings aside, I am shocked by how healthy the masculinity is in this show. It’s refreshing! I wasn’t expecting this from a 2000s crime drama.

Hi,

I have a question for real Numb3rs fans.

In which episode there is a scene of a man and woman jogging at Santa Monica pier, stopping and having a short chat?

Anyone knows in what episode that scene was?

I really wanted to watch this show but I can’t find It anywhere, somebody help.

Everything I've seen her in she is a terrible actress and I cringe everytime she speaks or reacts to something. She portrays Megan Reeves. She has been in Fire Country and she's even worse in that, I have no idea who casted her but they shouldn't have been in charge of casting lol

Figured if there was a group of people who would appreciate this, it would be Numb3rs fans!

I notice some of the scenes are filmed in how we see reality tv shows today ? I find that some of the scenes aren’t really produced in the same style of today shows. Some scenes are them in the water and a live show in the water with water on the lens of the camera. Very different.

Not sure if anyone here watches For All Mankind on AppleTV. But I finally figured out what the JSC building exterior and lobby interior reminded me of. It is the exact same exterior and lobby that was used for the LA FBI office in Numb3rs. Small world.

Does anyone remember what the episode was where Charlie reads keystrokes based on the unique sound each keystroke makes

Hi everyone! Coming here for some extra help. My mom and I love Numb3rs. She's been getting back into watching it every day and said to me that she's dying to have some of the little objects and gadgets that Charlie has on his desk. I'm not 100% sure which ones she's referring to since it's been a bit since I've binged the show. Can anyone help identify any of these objects? I want to get her something fun for Christmas. Thanks to everyone in advance!

I was always so pissed about the fact that we didn't get to see Donny get married to Robin, but now that I think about it, it wouldn't have felt right somehow. Just not fitting his character in a way, and because it wasn't necessarily the most important part in his storyline. What do you think? Should we have seen it?

Not sure if I’m exceptional but I was listening to the radio the other day. An ad for Chevrolet came on and I was like that has to be Colby grangers voice. Sure enough I checked and it was.

Is it sad or cool that I’m able to know things like that. I’ll never know. Haha

Hi everyone!

Does anybody know where I could watch the show with a Latin American spanish dub? All I can find is english language dub.

Thanks.
