    I really enjoy Ishta - her spock-like acting is complex yet fun to watch. She was a homerun in the casting as far as I can tell from just the first few episodes. I didn't enjoy the concept overlap with the iZombie show. Feels stolen one way or the other.

I like the warehouse 13 ginger - she is fun and while stuck in the early career (always acting the same) rut but I can always watch her for days. Seeing her makes me want to watch warehouse 13 reruns (why did they kill that show again?). The cop guy was an OK choice. The boss lady from Eureka was a total "casting **** the bed" scenario. Same for Cameron and the Kumar kid oh please! Casting must have run out of time or money or brains or all of the above. Good show good concept poor casting mediocre scripts so after Ishta and the Ginger Streisand girl it heads downhill but I will still watch the whole first season before deciding to buy the soap. Any chance they will script Eureka out of the show? I'm ever hopeful!… Expand

    Fringe meets Bones, plain and simple. The "Stitcher" concept - entering memories of the very recently dead was used several times in Fringe; our female lead, scantily clad floated in a sensory deprivation chamber and entered the memories of the recently dead to find clues. Camille and Linus - can you say Angela and Hodgins? The "Will they won't they?" of Booth/Brennan or Olivia/Peter?Fringe meets Bones, plain and simple.

    I'm not ripping them for ripping off two outstanding shows, Stitchers is highly entertaining - the "Professional" reviewers don't have a clue...perhaps they should "Stitch" in...    … Expand

    This show needs a second season. Get past the first two episodes and you're hooked. I say this because the first one just introduces you. It doesn't get into all the greatness right off the bat so give it time. Further along, this show will tell you what it's all about.

    The plot seems very limited, a top secret high tech group solves local crimes!

    The idea behind it is pretty good and solid but it has not been taken far enough. The actors are struggling with this limited plot.

    "Stichers" is the latest from ABC Family. So far the network has been hit or miss in terms of quality with its new shows, and this leans more toward a miss.

    The first episode was great, the concept is cool. Bio-tech that allows us to see others memories after death. The Blondie is really good, I like how her character is emotionless and blunt, reminds me of someone.

    Notice most of the negative reviews were given during the very beginnings of the show in the early episodes. This show has filled the gap for me. I don't watch many shows on TV but my daughter turned me on to this one knowing what I like to watch. I watched 8 episodes in one night and was hooked.

One even said it was the worst movie he had EVER seen.....Well so much for experts. I hop this show brings us many enjoyable seasons. I find the premise very entertaining and each episode is its own story while they still have the larger back story going in the background. Love the characters and the writing has been pretty good so far. The quirky mix on the characters is what you would expect from a bunch of young "gifteds" being manipulated by the government for some unknown reason. Stay tuned....I will.… Expand

    I don't understand how the cynical critics score their shows, as I was hooked on Stitchers from the first episode. Ishta is spot-on as the lead, and the supporting cast are cracking in their own roles. While the individual episodes seem unrelated, there is a story arc that carries through each, giving us a small piece of the bigger puzzle every episode.

    LOVED this episode! It was intense in the perfect way and it looks like things are getting better for the future of Camsten, hopefully. ^_^ I just want to thank the Stitchers writers and crew for bringing us yet another amazing season. I hope that Stitchers will go on and continue with many more seasons.

    This show definitely shows the Sci-Fi side. I enjoy how the show is able to look inside others memories, and how those memories effect Kirsten.

    I really liked this show and was sad to see it go. I loved the idea, the writing but did get upset when they were making it liberal with the lesbians and Camiles girlfriend. The end of season 3 had me on my seat and then there was no season 4 :(. The series was one my list of what to watch this week. If a network is looking for a new lineup, pick this series up!

    It's all completely ridiculous and derivative, which Schechter is quick to acknowledge. Indeed, the second-best thing about "Stitchers" is its game if not quite successful attempt to straddle sci-fi and sci-fi satire.... The first-best thing about the show is its cast, who all show promise far beyond the limits of their roles here.

    Harris is saddled with quite a bit of exposition, but his most significant hurdle is the series’ uneven tone. Stitchers oscillates between embracing the premise’s inherent campiness or eschewing it in favor of a more intense quasi-realism.
