FBI Special Agent Don Eppes (Rob Morrow) recruits his mathematical genius brother Charlie (David Krumholtz) to help the Bureau solve a wide range of challenging crimes in Los Angeles. The two brothers take on the most confounding criminal cases from a very distinctive perspective. Dr. Larry Fleinhardt (Peter MacNicol) is Charlie's friend and colleague who urges Charlie to focus more on his university studies than on FBI business. Don and Charlie's father, Alan Eppes (Judd Hirsch), is pleased to see his two sons working together, but fears their competitive nature will lead to trouble. (official distributor synopsis)

Wrong, kill it after the first few episodes. I still can't get out of my head the fact that what the guy sort of "calculates" could be solved using common sense, but on the other hand, it's a pretty good celebration of human reason and theoretical thinking. The cases start to get interesting, but the writers have constructed them in such a way as to play to the mathematic aspects. Even though the family etudes are still on the level of sweet soap opera, I have to conclude that the Scott brothers could give Jerry Bruckheimer a solid run for his money.
