493 views. 2010-8-18 14:53 |Individual Classification:share|

Lie To Me is an American television midseason replacement that premiered on the Fox network on January 21, 2009.The main character, Dr. Cal Lightman (played by Tim Roth), aided by his colleague Dr. Gillian Foster (Kelli Williams), detects deception by observing body language and microexpressions through the Facial Action Coding System, using this talent to assist clients (such as law enforcement). The character is based on Paul Ekman, notable psychologist and expert on body language and facial expressions. Dr. Ekman and his colleague, Dr. Maureen O'Sullivan, identified "naturals" in what is known as The Wizards Project, which identified 50 people with the ability to spot deception after testing 20,000 people from all walks of life. In real life, they call these "naturals" Truth Wizards, or wizards of deception detection.

 

I am deeply attracted by the show and the skills of distinguishing the lies. It open a new view in human communication --body language .

Dr. Cal Lightman is a human lie detector who specializes in body language and vocal patterns.Through reading the body language,he can distinguish whether someone is lying or not.Due to this ability, he was involve in various interesting and tense cases.

Due to this show, I am cracy with the body language.I have read lots of books relating to the body language and microexpressions and now studying the law of it.

I am of great pleasure to share with all guys who like the show or interest in the body language.

 

Strong commend!

Hope you like it!

It's indeed fantastic, body language may become really crucial in psychological-based inquests against criminals. however , Applying this kind of technique to normal people, as Dr lightman sometimes  did , would offset its original purpose. moreover,i don't think  body language, as well as the so-called micoexpressions, is universal. for instance, covering mouth is a sign of trying to hold back the lies to be told according to the show, but it's a sign of concentration to me.

After finishing the first season, I have no patience to follow because I've waited for such a long time. LoL, it's a excuse, I know. I think the first season is appealing.
