The show sucks. If you haven't seen it, it's about super geniuses that solve crimes. The only problem is it's written by retards. In the episodes I have seen the "super geniuses" make mistakes that regular geniuses wouldn't. It's a show that should definitely be canceled mid season. It's that bad. Does anyone else feel the same way or am I in the minority?

I've seen it twice. Don't intend to see it again. I seriously want to punch every character in the face, including the not-hot asian chick with the annoying voice.

I havn't watched the show, nor do I ever intend to but sadly being good isn't what makes a show a "hit tv series" like the advertisements lead on.


It's about the ratings. And the show is getting pretty good viewership which is way it got that label.


Even if it sucks ass, if people watch they won't cancel it lol.

Yeah, its a "hit" because it draws ratings. Why does it get ratings? Because its on CBS. Why does that matter you say? Because people over 60 (lots of them) apparently only watch CBS and can't figure out how to change the channel. CBS has a ton of "hit" shows and its mostly due to the old demographic only watching CBS.

While all the young pups are all gaga over cgi 3D crap and cartoon superheroes brought to screen?

I'm not quite 60 but never watch CBS.

I've seen every episode so far and I can say it's not that good. Bad writing and the asian lady sounds like she has a cock stuck in her throat.

Def a show that will survice on CBS because old people eat this shit up. Dont waste your time people.

I watch this show, but it is near the bottom of my priority list. Often, I will play it when I am doing house work or cooking. Something that I don't have to pay attention to watch.

As for CBS, I am young-ish (40) and have more CBS shows on my DVR than any other network. Of course, 3 of those shows are NCIS, so that probably has something to do with it.

Give me a TV drama that doesn't have inaccuracies. Don't list documentaries or biographies. I want TV dramas.

Yes, I like Scorpion. Of course they dumbed it down. We understand it now. If they had geniuses write it, it wouldn't be as fun. I'm not saying it is my favorite. I like NCIS and Hawaii 5-O much better. But I do like Scorpion.

Anyone else still giving this show a shot? I find it stupid sometime, bad acting, and terrible writing but I can't seem to remove it from the recording list... maybe because there is nothing else to watch Mondays for me

Saw one episode and figured it would be off the air in a couple of months. Its like a really bad Justified mixed with a really bad CSI and totally deserves a Mystery Science Theater treatment

Doesn't sound like it will be off the air as it pulls monster ratings
