This is a great mix-up of these two scenes; it seems as though John is so unused to smiling that he has to hide it when he does smile. That was a wonderful gift of trust that Finch gave him. Love it!!!
I love how giddy Reese is. You might not think it to look at him, but if you know him like so many of us have over the years, that look at the end is one of pure triumph. Finally he's not just working for Harold, he's a Friend. Reese doesn't have many of those. For a guy in his line of work, it's the little things that count.
Before Finch, every "friend" of Reese, at one time, tried to kill him (Mark, Kara et al). It's not just about getting to know something personal that Reese is after. It's about him wanting to be there for someone, to matter to them and for them to matter to him. Finch and Carter are two such friends, and then of course there's Bear. When Finch realizes that Carter unwittingly set up Reese, even though he was aware of the real danger to himself, he raced to rescue Reese (who nobly warned Finch to stay away). And then when you realize in the finale exactly what Finch tried to do, and what Reese actually did...you understand the depth of their bond.
Both Cavaziel and Emerson played very muted personalities who didn't show much emotion, but it worked because of the mutual paranoia and slight antagonism in the early years. They were the two heroes, but they didn't trust each other. John was constantly spying on Finch and Finch was constantly eluding him. It was an unusual partnership that fit the conspiracy-laden show very well.
I think the show might have gone longer if they had kept it like this. I think they started adding too many characters and plots that weren't really needed all at once.
agreed, its like Fringe and other shows. The first season the premise was simple. You got a number and helped the person of the week. But then we got the backstory of The Machine, the rogue governments, the woman who worshipped The Machine, that black guy who calls Harry out in court exposing The Machine. You had that fat woman (i think her codename was Control), the black female cop who kept betraying Reese and then helping him. Too many characters, too many plot elements. Keep it simple and it wont get cancelled.
@@AzguardMike it was planned for 7 seasons based on the samaritan plot with the storyline of the 13 episodes of season 5 being explored in depth for seasons 5-7 with the end of season 6 being the victory of the machine however it was revealed from an insider that it was cut short due to the need to save money and use it to fund a flagship programme of of CBS which was now receiving poor ratings hence why everyone was so suprised it was announced it was to be cancelled after the next shortened series. Which is why the plot of the last series moves too quickly and goes from running out of options and being doomed at the end of one episode to the miracle virus in the next as they had to cut 70 episodes down to 13.
An interesting note - Finch is reading a first edition of "It Can't Happen Here" by Sinclair Lewis. I like that you can see Finch pause as he makes a decision to let John in. You can watch the gears turning.

It’s 2023 and I still miss this show!
What television should aspire to but doesn't very often.
Finch is wise. He knew Reese is trying to get information out of him.
The problem is when Shaw finds out where you live...
Only if shes pissed. Otherwise shaw can come visit whenever she wants.
Or root when shes in god mode.
@@sroevukasroevuka Cocoa Puffs is creepy...
@@masercot i liked root.
@@sroevukasroevuka So did I, despite her creepiness... She made a Shakespeare movie, by the way. A major character in it.

"Enjoy your meal..." My meal IS YOU, Finch. 😸😋💜🔥
Finch and Reece always reminded me of Solid Snake and Otacons friendship
은은하게 웃는거 진짜 귀엽다

Despite claiming to the be least emotional of the group, Root does show the most emotion out of all of them

It was going to get axed anyway...
@@samsentertainment8290 7 or 8 Seasons would have been perfect just like Dr. House...
@@daggi3775 The show ends on an uptake or last too long and descend into obscurity.
Zip it we are late my friend
