Based on the characters and story from the best-selling book by Stephen King, The Dead Zone is a unique psychological thriller that combines a rich mix of action, romance, the paranormal, and a continuing quest for justice. Johnny Smith (Anthony Michael Hall) has been leading an idyllic small-town life. Employed as a science teacher, Johnny takes great pleasure in showing his young students the wonders of the natural world. He is also newly-engaged to a loving fiancée named Sarah (Nicole de Boer), a fellow teacher he’s known since childhood, and is a good son to his widowed mother, who lives nearby. Johnny’s life is nearly perfect… until the day his life is interrupted by a near-fatal car crash that leaves him in a deep coma. Six years later, Johnny finally regains consciousness and discovers that life as he once knew it has completely changed. His mother has passed away, and Sarah has gone on to marry someone else - and now has a son. But Johnny himself is also not the same person he once was: he now finds himself in possession of amazing psychic powers which allow him to see into the lives of anyone he touches. Before he even leaves the hospital, he helps save the life of a nurse’s daughter after having a miraculous vision, in which he sees the young girl trapped in the middle of a raging house fire. Now, as Johnny attempts to reacquaint himself with a life he has been away from for six long years, he must also begin a quest to come to terms with his new abilities - abilities that may turn out to be both a blessing and a curse. Helping Johnny make a fresh start are his physical trainer Bruce (John L. Adams), who also becomes a close friend; his mother’s priest, Gene Purdy (David Ogden Stiers), who sets up a trust fund for Johnny but may not be looking out for Johnny’s best interests; and Sarah, who must find a way to make Johnny a part of her life again without risking her relationship with her husband (Chris Bruno) and son. From Michael Piller, co-creator and executive producer of more than 500 hours of programming from the Star Trek franchise. After seeing only a few episodes its got to the point where I cant wait to see the next one. That pretty good for a new series, I thought i would get bored after a few episodes but it's done well and its compelling viewing
