Your support helps us to tell the story
From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.Following Hugh Laurie's transatlantic success in House, British actors are enjoying a departure from their traditional role as sneering malcontent or hapless sidekick.
In this case with good reason as Tim Roth is by far the best thing in this otherwise generic crime thriller.
Roth plays Cal Lightman, he and his team are experts in visual lie detection which not only helps them solve crime but makes them irksome smart-arses in any social situation.
Episodes typically throw them into jaunts that prove how much more awesome they are than established law enforcement agencies. Roth is as watchable as ever. It's enjoyable hokum but if I were to say it had any depth you wouldn't need Lightman et al to tell I was lying.
