The 4400…

I love this new show on the USA network, which is the kiss of death. I give the show another week and it’ll be off the air. Every show I like gets cancelled, it’s just how it works. Anyhow, rather than repeat what someone else said, here’s a synopsis from Uncle Bob:

First off … loved loved LOVED “The 4400” which debuted Sunday night on USA Network.

I know you didn’t watch it, so I’ll recap it for you briefly.

From 1938 until today, 4,400 people mysteriously disappeared in a ball of light.

Yesterday, that ball of light returned in the form of a comet and dropped off all 4,400 people near a lake.

None of the people had aged a day (including the first abductee, an 8 year old girl from 1938) and none of them have any recollection of what happened.

So they have to readjust to life now. A woman who had a wonderful husband and an 8 month old daughter in 1993 when she was abducted now has a 12 year old daughter. Problem is, her husband has long since remarried and forbids the woman to see her daughter and just wants her to go away. It’s actually damned near heartbreaking.

So it’s a bunch of stories like that.

Oh.

And now they have super powers. They can kill people by thinking about it and bring dead things back to life and stuff.

Cool show.

Sundays at 9/8 central on the USA Network.

Like I said, cool new series from Francis Ford Coppola’s production company. You should check it out.
