Numb3rs (also capitalized as NUMB3RS and pronounced as Numbers) is an American television show produced by brothers Ridley Scott and Tony Scott. It follows FBI Special Agent Don Eppes (Rob Morrow) and his mathematical genius brother, Charlie Eppes (David Krumholtz), who helps Don solve crimes for the FBI. It was created by Nicolas Falacci and Cheryl Heuton, produced by CBS Paramount Network Television, and airs on the CBS network in the U.S.

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.

Rob Morrow stars as FBI agent Don Eppes, who recruits his mathematical genius brother, Charlie (David Krumholtz), to help the Bureau solve a wide range of challenging crimes in Los Angeles. From two very different perspectives, the brothers take on the most confounding criminal cases, aided by Don’s partner, Terry Lake (Sabrina Lloyd), and new FBI recruit David Sinclair (Alimi Ballard). Although their father, Alan (Judd Hirsch), is pleased to see his sons working together, he fears their competitive nature will lead to trouble. Charlie’s colleague, physicist Dr. Larry Fleinhardt (Peter MacNicol), urges Charlie to focus more on his university studies than on FBI business. Inspired by actual events, NUMB3RS depicts how the confluence of police work and mathematics provides unexpected revelations and answers to the most perplexing criminal questions.

  1. Numb3rs – Die Logik des Verbrechens

    Das FBI löst schwierige Fälle in Los Angeles unter Mithilfe der Mathematik

    Gemeinsam sind die beiden ungleichen Brüder ein unschlagbares Team: Der couragierte FBI-Agent Don Eppes (Rob Morrow) und das introvertierte Mathematik-Genie Charlie (David Krumholtz), den Don bei schwierigen Fällen als Berater engagiert. Denn Charlie kann wissenschaftliche Formeln und Gesetzmäßigkeiten auf die Realität übertragen. So berechnet er beispielsweise aus den unterschiedlichen Tatorten eines Serienkillers dessen möglichen Wohnort, analysiert eine Bankraubserie oder findet über seine Auswertungen die Erklärung für eine rätselhafte Krankheit.

    Bei ihren verblüffenden Fällen werden die beiden von Don’s Partnerin Terry Lake (Sabrina Lloyd) und dem FBI-Neuling David Sinclair (Alimi Ballard) unterstützt. Obwohl ihr Vater Alan (Judd Hirsch) froh über das Teamwork seiner Söhne ist, befürchtet er, dass ihr Ehrgeiz zu Konflikten führen könnte. Charlie wird von seinem Kollegen, dem Physiker Dr. Larry Fleinhardt (Peter MacNicol) gedrängt, sich mehr seiner Arbeit an der Universität zu widmen, als um FBI Angelegenheiten. Inspiriert von der Aktualität veranschaulicht NUMB3RS, wie der Mix von Polizeiarbeit und Mathematik ungeahnte Enthüllungen liefert und die verwirrendsten Kriminalfragen beantwortet.

    Der Überraschungs-Hit des amerikanischen TV-Frühjahrs, kombiniert packende Action und klassische Krimi-Plots mit der Welt der Zahlen und Gleichungen – optisch aufwendig umgesetzt.

    Die spannende Serie von Tony und Ridley Scott wird seit Januar 2005 auf CBS ausgestrahlt und ist in den USA derzeit eines der erfolgreichsten Programme in der Freitag-Prime-Time. NUMB3RS konnte mit 25 Millionen Zuschauern die besten Quoten für eine Serienpremiere in dieser Saison verbuchen. Für die Umsetzung der Serie engagierten die Executive Producer Tony und Ridley Scott erfahrene Regisseure: Für die Pilotfolge zeichnet der erfolgreiche Filmregisseur Mick Jackson („Traffic“, „Bodyguard“, „L.A. Story“) verantwortlich. Und auch die weitere Folgen wurden von ausgewiesenen TV-Profis gedreht – u.a. von Leslie Linka Glatter („The OC“, „The West Wing“, „ER“) und Davis Guggenheim („24“, „Alias“, „The Shield“).

    Das Script zur Serie stammt von Ridley und Tony Scott.
