'Person of Interest' Season 5 Spoilers & Update: There Will Be More Deaths, 13 Episodes Ordered
The science fiction crime-drama series "Person of Interest" is returning to the small screen in 2016 for its fifth season. A lot has happened in the previous season especially in the Season 4 finale which closed with casualties and new alliances. But the question now is how will The Machine stay alive against Samaritan?
According to Ecumenical News, Sameen Shaw (Sarah Shahi) is still alive even after being presumed dead. She had survived the war and was seen willingly walking away with Samaritan's agents. Her move to the other side will bring big changes to the show but that's not the only shift that will be made. The source stated that Harold Finch (Michael Emerson) will become more fixated than ever with Samaritan. And as expected, that's not going to be a good thing.
The upcoming season will also show Finch trying to "recreate and reprogramme the Machine," reports International Business Times. He and Samantha "Root" Groves (Amy Acker) find out that they will be going up against a powerful being that can possibly bring annihilation to the entire human race. This will cause Finch to give his all in stopping the rising peril.
As revealed in Comic Book Resources, it is already known that there will be some characters who will be lost, either through death or transformation. And by transformation, it means that there will be some who will move to either the good or evil side. That's what most likely will happen to Sameen once the show returns.
CBS has ordered a total of 13 episodes only for season five, which is half of the normal 22-episode run of the show. This has then lead to speculations that the show will no longer return for the sixth installment. But an avid fan is hoping to save the show, states MStars News.
The source said that Kaily Russell of Sonoma, CA is asking fans of "Person of Interest" to sign her petition to keep the show going. She wrote a letter to CBS, Warner Brothers and Netflix and has now gained 6,800 signatures out of 7,500.
