    I don’t know Lennie James but I’ll take anything to put off the Lightman/Foster ship.

    I watched a few eps of Lie To Me and liked what I saw but for some reason it didn’t stay on my radar, probably because it was on FOX and they usually cancel the drama series I get into. Now, because of Lennie James, I am so intrigued to give it a second chance (the way it looks like FOX is). I just hope his storyline is resolved before FOX inevitably pulls the plug, and I’m too deep into it.

    From my heart to yours,Lennie.
    Good luck and have fun!

  • Gordon

    Lennie James was awesome in Jericho, fans of this show are in for a treat.

  • Sue

    As long as he can keep up with Tim Roth, I’m happy! Bring it on!

  • AnnR

    I did not like Lennie on Jericho and I won’t like him on Lie to Me, in fact I may not watch it now.

  • Cfelan

    Lie to Me was my favorite show to watch last year and now to see some of Lightman’s skeletons come back to haunt him… I can’t wait!!
    Watch 3 shows and you’ll be hooked

    Lie To Me was one of my Favs last year. I never missed an episode. I can’t wait for this season to start. Tim Roth is wonderful.

    Want to see if he can play well off Tim. If he does, this will be dynamite.
    So sad their doing the Cal/Gillian thing. Keep him with his ex. Gillian deserves better than either Cal or Alec.
    And I hope they make Sean Patrick Thomas (plays Torres’ FBI boyfriend)a more prominent character now that they’re going to work on more FBI cases. I so want him to kick Loaker’s butt.

    I love Lie To Me! It too was one of my favorite shows last season! Don’t know this new Actor that’s coming; but I can’t wait for the new season to start! When will it return?

  • Cheri

    LOVE Lennie James! Really liked Lie to Me last season, so now I’m doubly looking forward to Season Two! (I also met Lennie in person and a nicer, more humble and gracious man you will never meet…) :)

    Yes, Lennie is British and also a playwright. Check out his Wikipedia entry … and yes, he was excellent in Jericho and you would never have guessed he was British! I’m excited that he’s back on American television and believe he chooses his roles carefully, so I have high hopes for this show getting even better.
