"The 4,400"

Has anyone seen this show on USA? I was just wondering what the public opinion was... do you think it's good or bad?

I'm not sure what to think myself. I do know it has some serious potential, though.

I saw most of it and it was mediocre.

The idea for the show is intriguing but the actual story itself and the casting left much to be desired.

They could've done better in my oionion.

As it continues it is getting more interesting, like what is Billy Campbells character up to? Thing is there are only two more shows unless USA decides to make it a regular series.
 
Another show made by ex-Star Trek people.

Trek,

I saw the original episode and only really half watched the second.  I thought it was a pretty good show.  Someone mentioned the casting not being that good, but I felt that Michael Moriarity (sp?) from The Stuff was a great addition to the show as the older man who owned the law firm.  It was great to see him being as I haven't seen him in anything since the early days of Law And Order.

He has worked in some quite diverse roles in some good and some questionable productions(Psi Factor comes to mind for the later).

He left Law and Order before they fired him(they had replaced him behind his back). He got really  fired up with Janet Reno's attacks on violence on television, he considered it censorship and an affront to the Constitution. He felt NBC was gagging him because they refused to let him on their news shows to make his point. He quit and moved to Nova Scotia to start a life in self imposed exile.(Some say his alcoholism was the reason he was so vehement  about this) I believe he applied for Canadian citizenship and  it was recent.y granted. He lives in Vancouver now I believe.

The guy is a died in the wool right winger (really a libertarian). In fact he started a political  party in Canada (The Realists) and says he will be their version of Reagan.

I have seen him in various show produced in Canada. In fact  he just recently won an award (comparable to the Emmy) for a TV movie he appeared.

Some might consider his politics kinda whacko, see for yourself  just search on his name at this site where he is a frequent contributor:
