When Numb3rs returned for its fifth season on October 3, it came back with a bang, achieving a major milestone in its three-year run. Cast member David Krumholtz didn't think the police procedural can surpass or even equal what last season put forward but what the new season has to offer may be the best yet.
"I honestly think we hit our stride last year," Krumholtz, who plays mathematician Charlie Eppes on Numb3rs, told Zap2it.com. "Knowing what we've accomplished so far this season, I really do believe, it doesn't get much better than this. If last year we hit our stride, this year we found our voice."
