'''''NUMB3RS''''' (pronounced '''''Numbers''''') is an [[United States|American]] [[television show]] produced by brothers [[Ridley Scott|Ridley]] and [[Tony Scott]]. It follows [[Federal Bureau of Investigation|FBI]] [[Special Agent]] [[Don Eppes]] ([[Rob Morrow]]) and his [[mathematics|mathematical]] [[genius]] brother, [[Charlie Eppes]] ([[David Krumholtz]]), who helps Don solve crimes for the FBI. Created by [[Nicolas Falacci]] and [[Cheryl Heuton]], the program is produced by [[CBS Paramount Network Television]] and airs on the [[CBS]] network in the U.S. It is also shown on [[Five US]] and [[ITV3]] in the U.K, although it was also shown during a late-night slot on the main [[ITV|ITV Network]] for a brief period of time.
The show focuses equally on the relationships between Don Eppes, his brother Charlie Eppes and their father, [[Alan Eppes]] ([[Judd Hirsch]]), and on the brothers' efforts to fight crime, normally in [[Los Angeles]]. A typical episode begins with a crime, which is subsequently investigated by a team of FBI agents led by Don and mathematically described by Charlie, with the help of [[Larry Fleinhardt]] ([[Peter MacNicol]]) and/or [[Amita Ramanujan]] ([[Navi Rawat]]). The insights provided by Charlie's mathematics are always in some way crucial to solving the crime.
The series was the most popular show airing on Friday evenings throughout its first three seasons.<ref name="wolfram_consultants">{{cite web

Numb3rs has been renewed for a 5th season expected to start airing in September 2008 <ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.variety.com/article/VR1117980954.html?categoryid=14&cs=1|title=CBS Renews 11 Shows|accessdate=2008-03-05}}</ref>.
== Cast and characters ==
{{main|List of Numb3rs characters}}
The show revolves around three groups of characters: the [[FBI]], mathematicians at CalSci and the Eppes family.
* Professor [[Charlie Eppes]], a [[mathematician|mathematics]] [[genius]] who [[consultant|consults]] for the FBI and [[NSA]]. He is portrayed by [[David Krumholtz]].
* [[Don Eppes]], Charlie's older brother, is the lead [[FBI]] [[agent]]. He is portrayed by [[Rob Morrow]].
* Professor [[Larry Fleinhardt]] is a [[theoretical physicist]] and [[cosmologist]] at CalSci. Charlie's former mentor and now best friend, he also consults frequently for the FBI. He is portrayed by [[Peter MacNicol]].
* [[Alan Eppes]] is a former [[L.A.]] [[Urban planner|City planner]], a widower and the father of both Charlie and Don Eppes. He is portrayed by [[Judd Hirsch]].
* [[Amita Ramanujan]] is a [[mathematician]] at CalSci and FBI consultant. She is currently dating Charlie Eppes. She is portrayed by [[Navi Rawat]].
* [[Liz Warner]] is an FBI [[Homeland Security]] liason. She was for a time involved romantically with Don. She had been twice in a relationships with Don. She is portrayed by [[Aya Sumika]].
* [[David Sinclair (Numb3rs)|David Sinclair]] is an FBI agent. He is portrayed by [[Alimi Ballard]].
* [[Colby Granger]] is an FBI agent. Once thought to have betrayed his colleagues, he is now back in their good graces and confidence. He is portrayed by [[Dylan Bruno]].
Temporary characters on the show are often named after famous mathematicians. For example, in episode 8 of season 2 one of the criminals is named [[Michel Rolle|Rolle]], and Charlie's father mentions a meeting with a man named [[Julius Petersen|Robert Peterson]].

[[Image:Mathematical Model.jpg|thumb|225 px|right|Charlie's work appears in the opening credits.]]
===Season 1===
{{main|List of Numb3rs episodes#Season 1: 2005}}
The first season run of the show aired between [[January 23]], [[2005]] and [[May 13]], [[2005]] at 10pm on Fridays. It sees the start of the working relationship between Los Angeles' FBI department and Charlie Eppes. The main FBI agents are Charlie's brother, Don Eppes, and [[List of Numb3rs characters#Terry Lake|Terry Lake]], as well as [[List of Numb3rs characters#David Sinclair|David Sinclair]]. Don and Charlie's father, Alan Eppes, provides emotional support for the pair, while Professor Larry Fleinhardt and doctoral student Amita Ramanujan provide mathematical support and insights to Charlie. Season 1 was a half season, producing only 13 episodes. [[Sabrina Lloyd]] played Terry Lake, an agent in this season, she was later replaced by [[Diane Farr]], who played Megan Reeves.
===Season 2===
{{main|List of Numb3rs episodes#Season 2: 2005-2006}}
The second season run of the show aired between [[September 23]], [[2005]] and [[May 19]], [[2006]], again at 10pm on Fridays. Season two sees several changes to Don's FBI team: Terry Lake is reassigned to [[Washington, D.C.|Washington]] and two new members join Don and David Sinclair: [[Megan Reeves (Numb3rs)|Megan Reeves]] and [[Colby Granger]]. Charlie is challenged on one of his long-standing pieces of mathematical work and also starts work on a new theory, Cognitive Emergence Theory. Larry sells his home and lives a nomadic lifestyle, while he becomes romantically involved with Megan. Amita receives an offer for an assistant professor position at [[Harvard University]], but is plagued by doubt as her relationship with Charlie is challenged and her career is in upheaval. Alan begins work and dating again, though he struggles with the loss of his wife, and both he and Charlie have a dream of her.
===Season 3===

''Numb3rs'' was renewed for a third season,<ref name="season3>{{cite news

}}</ref> which began airing in North America (specifically USA and Canada) at 10pm on Friday [[September 22]], [[2006]] and ended on [[May 18]], [[2007]]. Charlie and Amita intensify their relationship, as do Larry and Megan, especially after her kidnapping. Amita has troubles adjusting in her new role as a CalSci professor, and Larry announces his leave of absence—he will be on the space station for six months, which greatly distresses Charlie. Dr. Mildred Finch, the newly-appointed Chair of the CalSci Physics, Mathematics, and Astronomy Division, initially troubles Charlie and his colleagues, as Alan dates her. Meanwhile, Don dates Agent Liz Warner, questions his ethics and self-worth, and receives counseling. Charlie sees Don's therapist and the two understand one another more. Despite Don's concerns, Alan engages in some FBI consulting with his knowledge of engineering, and Larry returns from the space station, although disillusioned. The finale wraps up with a revelation that Colby was actually a double agent for the Chinese.
Noticeable changes from previous seasons include the removal of the opening credit sequence (credits are now done during the first segment of the show), the absence of Peter MacNicol's character for much of the season, and the absence of Diane Farr's character for a few episodes. Peter MacNicol appeared in the first eleven episodes before leaving for the television show ''[[24 (TV series)|24]]'', but returned to ''Numb3rs'' for the 21st episode of season 3. His absence was explained as being a payload specialist on the [[International Space Station]]. Diane Farr, pregnant for most of the season, left the show for maternity leave in episode 18, her absence explained as a special assignment to the [[United States Department of Justice|Department of Justice]].
===Season 4===
{{main|List of Numb3rs episodes#Season 4: 2007-2008}}
The season premiere aired on [[September 30]] [[2007]] in the same Friday night time slot as in previous seasons, 10:00 p.m. Eastern Time.<ref name="fall2007preview">{{cite web
| url = http://www.cbs.com/primetime/fall_preview_2007/
| title = CBS 2007 Fall Preview
| accessdate = 2007-08-24
}}</ref> Due to the [[2007–2008 Writers Guild of America strike|writer's strike]], only 12 episodes were initially produced. However, once the strike ended, CBS announced the show's return [[April 4]] [[2008]] with 6 episodes.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.zap2it.com/tv/news/zap-cbsreturndates,0,7656374.story|title=CBS Sets Series Return Dates|accessdate=2008-02-13}}</ref> The season ended on [[May 16]], [[2008]].
As this season starts, [[Colby Granger]] escapes from jail, and is revealed to be a triple agent. He then rejoins the team. Don and Liz break up halfway through this season, after Liz has trouble with Don's trust issues. Amita's parents coming to visit is a secondary theme throughout most of the season. Because of her work at the D.O.J, Megan is conflicted with her work, and turns to Larry for help. Near the end of the season, Don's girlfriend from season 2, Robin Brooks, returns. Don and Robin then continue their relationship. Charlie goes through F.B.I training camp because he has been working with Don for several years, and wants to see what his brother does. In the season finale, Megan leaves the team to move back to D.C, and Charlie goes head to head with Don about a case. This causes Charlie to send information to scientists in Pakistan. He is subsequently arrested and has his security clearance revoked, so he can no longer help Don on cases. At the end of the episode, when Don drives away to another case, Charlie admits that giving up FBI work will be harder than he thinks.
Several characters from previous seasons did not return in season 4. These characters include Mildred Finch and Ian Edgerton.

Since the premier season, the blog<ref>[http://www.atsweb.neu.edu/math/cp/blog/ Numb3rs blog]</ref>
edited by Prof. Mark Bridger (Northeastern University) has explained the mathematics behind each episode of the show.
[[Wolfram Research]] (the maker of [[Mathematica]]) is the chief math consultant, reviewing scripts and providing background mathematics for the show. Starting with season four, their website in collaboration with CBS is entitled "The math behind NUMB3RS".<ref>[http://numb3rs.wolfram.com NUMB3RS Episode 412-Power-Wolfram Research Math Notes<!-- Bot generated title -->]</ref>
===Concerns from mathematicians===
At least one mathematician consultant to the show has expressed concern with its use of math, which is inserted after the script is written, to provide plausible sounding jargon, rather than having consultants involved at all stages of the story development.<ref name="silverberg">{{cite journal

Other criticisms include the show's portrayal of female mathematicians and inappropriate aspects of the relationship between [[Charlie Eppes]] and his graduate student [[Amita Ramanujan]].<ref name="silverberg" />
== Production ==
The idea of ''Numb3rs'' was generated in the late 1990s when Nick Falacci and Cheryl Heuton, the show's creators, attended a lecture given by [[Bill Nye]], a popular [[Science education|science educator]].<ref name="nye">{{cite news

[[Gabriel Macht]] was originally cast to portray the character of Don Eppes. Also, the original concept for the show had the events take place at [[Massachusetts Institute of Technology]];<ref name="imdb_trivia">{{cite web

}}</ref> this was later changed to the fictional California Institute of Science, commonly called CalSci. Scenes which take place at CalSci are filmed at [[California Institute of Technology]] (Caltech)<ref name="imdb_trivia" /> and the [[University of Southern California]]. One of the most frequent campus locations at Caltech is the vicinity of [[:Image:Millikan Library, Caltech.jpg|Millikan Library]], including the bridge over Millikan Pond, the Trustees room, and the arcades of nearby buildings. At USC, locations include Doheny Library and the Town and Gown dining room.
Another common location is the [[American Craftsman|Craftsman home]] of the Eppes family. The house shown in the first season is real; it is owned by David Raposa and Edward Trosper,<ref name="craftsmanhome">{{cite news
