“Exceptional” spy thriller with perfect score and “kick ass plot” gets new UK streaming home

Fans in the UK can now watch all five seasons of the sci-fi crime drama Person of Interest on Prime Video. Created by Jonathan Nolan (of Westworld) and with JJ Abrams as an executive producer, the show’s 103 episodes are all available with a Prime Video subscription.

The series takes place in a world with a groundbreaking machine invented by a brilliant scientist – it claims to foresee terrorist attacks before they occur. A disillusioned CIA agent is brought in to use this technology and stop the attacks.

Jim Caviezel, known for The Passion of the Christ, Taraji P. Henson from Hidden Figures, Michael Emerson of Saw, and Amy Acker from Angel star in a film featuring a large ensemble cast, including Sterling K. Brown, Winston Duke, Leslie Odom Jr., and Mark Margolis, among others.
