Season 5 of Person of Interest will return to CBS in 2016. Before the upcoming 13 episode, Jim Caviezel) has been recognized for his popular role, as ex-operative turned vigilante John Reese, and earned a nomination for the People's Choice Awards 2016.

In our fourth season finale recap, the war between the Machine and Samaritan left casualties and forged new alliances in its wake. After presumed dead, Sameen Shaw (Sarah Shahi) was last seen walking away willingly with Samaritan's agents. While Samaritan was executing its master plan, Greer's men put a bag over Control (Camryn Manheim)'s head and took her hostage. In the cliff-hanger, as Pink Floyd's Welcome to the Machine started playing, Harold Finch (Michael Emerson) walked out, with no gun, alongside Reese (Caviezel) and Root (Amy Acker) as they started shooting down Samaritan's agents.

According to TV Line, the cast and crew are among this year's honorees at the People's Choice Awards. Person of Interest is nominated for Favorite TV Crime Drama and the Passion of the Christ actor has earned himself a nod too for Favorite Crime Drama TV Actor. The show is up against Criminal Minds and Bones, while 47 year old actor competing against LL Cool J and Mark Harmon.

As we mentioned before, a brand new scene was presented during the POI panel at the recent New York Comic Con. This funny-as-hell clip is actually a light-hearted take, featuring all kinds of inside jokes among the cast. Watch Finch attempt to relaunch the Machine for a test run in the sizzle reel.
