Reply to comment by kugglaw in I want the Nolans to make a show by romanf_267

It's only a true procedural during Season 1, and to a lesser extent Season 2.

Seasons 3-5 are just incredible, and while there is still a case of the week, most of them are directly related to a bigger plot.

It's by far my favorite network TV show ever, and it's not even close.

How would you rank it against Lost, my personal favourite network tv show?

I like it better than Lost, and the ending is also very satisfactory.

BTW, Michel Emerson is absolutely incredible as Harold Finch in POI

Lost is my personal favorite network TV show as well, and I prefer Lost. During its first three seasons, Person of Interest definitely felt like it might be competing with one of my top spots and giving Lost a challenge, but I was less of a fan of some of the developments in the last two seasons, which dropped it down. POI is probably around my 13th favorite network TV show. If you drop animated shows and shows that didn't get a planned conclusion, it might be my 6th favorite. So it's up there for me, but I did have some issues with it as it went on.
