The season gets off to an explosive start with a Very Special Episode, complete with blazing action set pieces and even a Big Name Star (Val Kilmer!) right out of a Tony Scott blockbuster, which figures as Scott, who co-produces Numb3rs with brother Ridley, helmed the episode. The truth about agent Colby's (Dylan Bruno) loyalties is revealed, and he is tentatively and warily welcomed back into the fold, although Sinclair (Alimi Ballard) feels particularly betrayed. Mathematics (duh) figure heavily in this season's convoluted cases, including the death of a woman in a rising young movie star's bathtub, an immersive interactive video game, and a street race that spins out of control. Concepts such as partition congruence and Byzantine fault-tolerance may soar over most viewer's heads, but as the movie star admiringly observes, it's "way cool" when professor Charlie Eppes (David Krumholtz) measures towel absorbency to determine the size of the bathtub killer. Numb3rs divides its time between casework and the human equation. Charlie's older brother and FBI team leader Don Eppes (Rob Morrow) is haunted by the death of a woman in witness protection, loses one girlfriend, but regains another, Robin (Michelle Nolden reprising her second season role). Eccentric professor Larry (Peter Gallagher) has returned from space and is now living in a monastery. Psychological profiler Megan (Diane Farr) ponders a career change. It's a particularly eventful season for Charlie, who becomes a bestselling author and relationship guru after his book on friendship dynamics is marketed as a self-help tome. One harrowing case involving a kidnapped reporter hits close to home when intimidating thugs cloud his mathematical prowess. He also undergoes FBI training ("I’m in pursuit of a burgundy-ish, sort of merlot-coloured what model car would you say that is?" he radios in during a training exercise). In the game-changing season finale, Charlie and Don, the "brothers who became friends," are on opposite sides of a case involving a Pakistani scientist friend of Charlie's who is suspected of being a terrorist. No episode commentaries this time around, but five featurettes go behind the scenes of the Tony Scott episode. --Donald Liebenson NUMB3RS is a drama about an FBI agent who recruits his mathematical-genius brother to help the Bureau solve a wide range of challenging crimes in Los Angeles. The two brothers take on the most confounding criminal cases from a very distinctive perspective. Inspired by actual events, the series depicts how the confluence of police work and mathematics provides unexpected revelations and answers to the most perplexing criminal questions. A dedicated FBI agent, Don Eppes (Rob Morrow), couldn't be more different from his younger brother, Charlie Eppes (David Krumholtz), a brilliant mathematician who, since he was little, yearned to impress his big brother. Don is joined on his team by fellow agents Megan Reeves (Diane Farr), a behavioral specialist who brings psychological insight to their investigations; David Sinclair (Alimi Ballard), who utilizes his incredible perspective and the survival skills he learned growing up in the Bronx; and new agent Colby Granger (Dylan Bruno) who just completed an extensive tour of duty in the U.S. Military. After some initial reluctance, Don's team welcomes Charlie's innovative methods to crime-solving. Their father, Alan (Judd Hirsch), is happy to see his sons working together even though he doesn't understand the intricacies of what Charlie does for a living. It is his co-workers at CalSci who further refine Charlie's approach and help him stay focused. Physicist friend Dr. Larry Fleinhardt (Peter MacNicol) constantly challenges Charlie to employ a broader point of view to his work with the FBI, and Amita Ramanjuan (Navi Rawat), Charlie's former grad student, frequently helps him see cases in a new light Despite their disparate approaches to life, Don and Charlie are able to combine their areas of expertise and solve some killer cases. Review: Great crime fighting show with a side of math/science, not to mention excellent actors & characters! - Numb3rs is such a great show! If you like crime shows that take a slightly different approach, but also has good team dynamics and mostly wholesome story lines, this should fit the bill! It has exciting cases, twists and turns, uses math to help solve cases, has great team dynamics for both the FBI agents and the professors who help on their cases, as well as some nice brotherly love between the two leads, one the FBI lead agent, the other being the younger math genius who helps out along with some of his colleagues. Great supporting actors and ensemble cast. If you haven't checked it out yet, what are you waiting for? Highly recommend. Review: A former GIS practitioner's ecstatic review of the show Numbers. Geeks unite! - This series was a great introduction to the public of what is GIS, Geographic Information Systems, used for spatail analyses. Many basic, classic, and some mildly-advanced spatial concepts are introduced in plots as mathematical solutions introduced to the viewer as being in the domain of mathematicians, as opposed to math (and programming code) as being among the necessary skills intrinsic to the GIS professionals in the real world who REALLY make this fascinating science turn as it has into a stellar solution for modeling a plethora of problems in a vast list of different fields that benefit from this huge utility. GIS is useful in anything that has a spatial context, or is location, distance, time, proximal, or route- based as examples. Crime incidents and respective data are show in this series as the basis for illustrating GIS' power, as a utility in the form of predictive models for "where is it going to happen next" (statistically-speaking), or "where are the criminals eminating from". How it is applied in the show is novel and entertaining, and evokes how GIS came about long before the time this series was on. If it did show how GIS is used, we would not see the fascinating way the spatio-temporal-locative problems are envisioned and solved in the mind of character genius Charlie Epps. This series shows how GIS, or rather the formative functions behind the utility of GIS (math equations for spatial functions, maps, geography, programming, etc.) co-star in this fun "where is it [the criminal problem] coming from?" show. The algorithms and code for solving what thus far have been pretty classic GIS problems, solved by on the spot programming of seemingly newly-formed math equations generated primarily by (but with some help by a cast of secondary characters on campus) the co-star character, Dr. Charlie Epps, math professor at fictional Cal-Poly. Charlie is brother to Don Epps, FBI management AND all street action guy, played by star (co-star?) Rob Morrow with brother-to-brother mini dramas solved by the ever wise father of both, played by widower Judd Hirsch . Noticeably absent in the series thankfully is the stereotypical cop-show requisite bellowing, angry cop-shop manager chewing on everyone. Different math professors contribute to each episode's script in the credits, so they tried hard to keep it academically legit, despite by my count uttering the real star (GIS, by name) only twice in the series. Is it DONE this way in reality? Of course not, its TV. In reality, most frequently-used apps are embedded in GIS Software, and professionals (from the geo-spatial sciences such as geomatics engineering , software engineering, and "IT" now, though mistakenly IT pros too-often think "data are data, spatial data are no different") and all write site-specific and unique problem macros on the fly. Most of these major algorithms involving topology (geometric relationships of connectivity, contiguity, and area) have all been written into GIS software before this series existed, but its fun to see Charlie envision, then write them each time. GIS needs to earn public recognition, and in this time period GIS was about ten years into its common local and Federal government use. Most of the classic spatial functions embedded in vanilla top-shelf GIS software is rather redundantly thought-up each time by Charlie, a prodigy math genius who was said to have his PhD in character by 16(?). Again, GIS, the term is utterred just once or twice as a nod to what is going on here to solve crimes, but since the producers I assume knew the average viewer would not know what that acronym stands for, Charlie must describe his math revelations he sees to us, represented (interestingly really) on the screen in the form of usually basic calculus and regression models, displayed in his mind's eye on screen as chalkboard but transparrent equations, and background commonplace metaphors to illustrate the concepts (sprinklers, driver's routes, map data in 3-D, etc). Iterative, regressive, integral, differential, and other solutions are employed every episode, and are seemingly never saved as "let's not have to write this classic analyses again". This way, the viewer sees him envisioning brilliant solutions that in reality, for the most part, are in use for other applications in local government all over the country. If they did save it all, and simply fire-up his laptop, it woukd not be half as fun. Artistic license. Its a great show; I love it, but I am a GIS geek, so I am a BIT biased. I highly reccomend this show. Make no mistake, if higher-thinking does not float your boat, the basic but good chase scenes and raid-shootouts are banal by themselves alone. If you pay attention, its fascinating, thinking through Charlie's chess-game in his mind, ever seeking more data. So they introduce romantic sub-plots (inadvisably shown as co-worker and academic colleagues) with ladies (fellow professors, colleagues on campus and at the FBI; even the math dep't head) for both brothers and the father, who live together in dad's house that Charlie buys in various combinations, with dad bringing brother closer back to other brother in many episides. If you're a math geek, youll love it but scoff at the 200-level under-grad Welschmertz. If you're a GIS geek like me, you'll cheer them on ecstatically, but express "we've written all that already back in the 70's through early 80's" and enthusiastically saying to your dubious but happy for you moderately interested wife "I DO THAT for a LIVING!!!!". If you want a basic shoot-em up with a bellowing angry charicature of "sarge" angry once again, you'll be dissapointed, as GEOSPATIAL ALGORITHMS are the star here, and you'll possibly be a bit bored w/o a love of GIS or math. Nonetheless, an intelligent viewer should enjoy what already existed, but no one in general out of the field knew it then - (the solutions in GIS) but will likely be be intrigued by the interesting way Charlie envisions (on the screen for our viewing pleasure) his solutions. I highly recommend this show, and enjoy it still eight years after it ended. But I'm a GIS geek, their unanticipated but forgiving audience. Also, what DOESN't have a spatial context??

Watch it!! ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ But that's why I like Num3bers so watch and continue to watch it *by H***8 on April 20, 2016* I've been watching TV cop shows almost since television began, and at this point it's hard to watch a new one unless there's something new and/or different to distinguish it from the shoot 'em ups as they've evolved. Frankly, with the surfeit of available programming, it's difficult to decide what to watch anymore. But that's why I like Num3bers so watch and continue to watch it. It's not a show that encourages binge watching since the episodes are standalone and not serial, but at the same time the characters are developed and evolve season to season, and the use of math to solve crime combined with the relationships of the characters--especially within the Epps family--has made the difference for me and keeps me returning to it. The stories are invariably interesting and intelligent, well- plotted and -acted, and the acting is excellent. It's not as gritty and gripping as another cop show, Southland, that I enjoyed and watched from beginning to end, but it's traditional approach to television story-telling (i.e., each episode is self-contained, there's no graphic violence or nudity) provides a relief from more recent shows on which seem to feature gore and skin over acting, story and character development. I'm sorry the show ended a few years ago but glad I still have a couple of seasons more to watch. Oh, and each season has about 18 episodes so there's plenty to watch. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/9544887-numb3rs-season-4](https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/9544887-numb3rs-season-4) --- *Product available on Desertcart Great Britain* *Store origin: GB* *Last updated: 2026-05-02*
