Trivia:

Poppy Montgomery's character, "Samantha Spade", is a tribute for Humphrey Bogart. He was "Sam Spade" in The Maltese Falcon (1941).

Goofs:

Factual errors: In more than one instance, suspects being interviewed with a polygraph answer all the control questions (Is your name John Doe? Are you 39?) truthfully. In reality, a suspect is told to answer all the control questions "yes", whether true or not, to determine the accuracy of the polygraph machine.

Quotes:

[after Jack has had an argument with Victor Fitzgerald]
Jack Malone: Didn't even wait for me to say, "yes, sir."
Martin: He never does.

OK First Season, Great Second Season and then it's all downhill

What a waste! It took the WAT producers a half season until they hit their stride (the pilot was oh-hum but the show showed potential for growth, in particular with its great cast.) The second season was excellent, with better photography and more interesting writing and decent "persoanl arcs" for each character.

I was looking forward to the third season, but then it all collapsed in a second.

The writing went downhill faster than an olympic racer. And of course, to make matter worse, they had to tinker with the cast and add Roselyn Sanchez to make sure that we got how terrible the writing is.

Oh, well. It had one good season...
