8. I love the 4400, man, do I wish that USA would quit showing 4 weeks
of shows and call it a season. WTF is up with that!

4. I caught that too
Greg Stilson is the original agonist in King's "The Dead Zone" novel, the crazied politician who will start WWIII. John Smith, coping with his ability to see the future, finally finds out he can change it.

(When Dead Zone was made into a movie, the insane President, Stilson, was played by ... <drum roll> ... Martin Sheen).

The series is very, very good -- sort of Twilight Zone meets James Bond.

6. I loved the movie but, just couldn't see it as a series.
Did you know the guy who plays the lead is the nerdy kid from 'The Breakfast Club'.

7. Yeah and that nerdy kid
grew up to be a very interesting Anthony Michael Hall! I was surprised I liked him so much on Dead Zone. He's the main reason I watch. I was going to post a few weeks ago when the season premiere opened with the storyline about the corruption of the black box voting. Glad someone is watching the show and brought this up.

Only thing is, I was a bit disappointed with the season ender cliff hanger. I'm probably just too tired. heh heh The show has it's hits and misses, but I would suggest to anyone to give it a try.
