I would give it 5 stars but the writing for the character of Elizabeth Keen lowers the rating of the show. The story line, casting, character development and integration of wold events are all brilliant. Each episode is captivating, exciting, and leaves a bit of mystery leading into following episodes. Scenes with Elizabeth Keen turns me off from the show. She's the worst. I wish her character was better thought-out and performed. For being a FBI agent who was specifically hired as a profiler - her actions are contradicting, interactions moody, rapport with others are inconsistent and the incorporation of her disrupts thrilling sequences and action scene.
