Person of Interest’s ‘6,741’ aired eight years ago this week. One of the best episodes, it was a drastic, sexy, and tragedy-laced 43 minutes
"There’s a kind of on-screen dynamic you have no hope of achieving artificially. Manufacturing a fictional relationship is one thing, stumbling upon it is another, much more pleasant, thing. They simply had electricity — this was undeniable, like the answer to an equation.
One of the things that made the unexpected Root and Shaw arc so flavorful was that they're excellent characters individually.
Root was defined by transience. She colored outside the lines, believing she had no future. Amy Acker’s charming hacker also had a fleeting, malleable quality because she was inconsistent — she rotated through moral codes and identities like socks.
Shaw, on the other hand, was a constant. She was sure of herself and her path as a soldier — a predictable modus operandi of working the numbers and keeping teammates alive.
The odd attraction between them lay in those fundamental differences. Shaw, a solid brick wall, found chaos seductive, and Root, who weaved in and out of the story like a quirky ghost, was intrigued by bluntness and walled boundaries. Unstoppable force meets an immovable object… you get it. They brought out the best and worst in each other."
Hello, y'all! My free Substack (which as of right now is entirely POI blogs) needed watering and I needed to get my Shoot rambles out of my brain.
This is the result. Like my Root essay, this is a long read and spoilery. In this, I explain why Root and Shaw were absolute dynamite together and how POI executed a memorable romance with a lot of hurdles in the way
My rewatch traumatized me, but Amy Acker, you will always be famous.
"Acker flawlessly oscillated between portraying Root as someone who blew with the wind and playing her as the most determined, intuitive woman in the world.
Root had an emotional intelligence the others didn't possess because she was forward (okay, overfamiliar…) and unafraid to express herself. Acker also had an accessible reserve of gravitas only true scene-stealers possess.
When Root, of all people, appeared at crucial turning points to declare things were about to get bleak, that meant things were really bleak.
While Person of Interest framed Shaw, Harold, and John as willfully naive sometimes, Root would say the quiet part out loud about the growing Samaritan threat.
Before any other characters accepted that the only way to win was to take some losses, Root had processed there was no scenario where they would win cleanly.
That gristly reality, and Acker’s ability to play to Root’s dynamism, made her a singular presence and a surprising emotional core.
She forced other characters to reckon with things they didn't want to, whether it be romantic chemistry or the probability their life’s mission was about to be torn to shreds by an opponent they couldn't beat."
I rewatched POI recently and NEEDED to write about it. My (free) love letter to Root, who was hands down one of the best TV characters of the 2010s 🍹🔫.
Very spoilery, because it's written by a fan with other fans in mind!
