The whole show is great, but the 1st episode is a master class in scriptwriting. I loved the dynamic of the bad guys knowing she is a human lie detector and carefully wording their answers so they weren't technically lying, but still sounding like a fairly natural conversation. Adrian Brody was especially amazing. And Natasha Lyonne is fantastic in every episode. It takes an old concept and just executes it perfectly. One of my favorite new shows in recent memory.

1st episode is probably the worst one IMO but I give it a pass because it needs to set everything up. I wouldn't say it's the only episode that does that cat-and-mouse game of the culprit knowing about Charlie's ability and maneuvering around it. The guy in the racing episode did it arguably more so
