From a reviewer at IMDb.com:
The Dead Zone is an excellent show. Cutting-edge graphics
and subject matter, interesting twists on each show, plus
compelling continuing story lines threaded throughout the
individual episodes, make this a great watch. Kudos to the
creators (Michael Piller and his son Shawn, who is carrying
on his legacy) and actor/producer Anthony Michael Hall
(he's come a long way since "Sixteen Candles") plus the rest
of the excellent cast. The show has improved with every
season, as the cast chemistry increases, rather than fades,
and the story lines become even more creative instead
of growing stale. Great TV in an era of yawn-same-old-
same-old detective/mystery/police shows. Set it on your
DVR like me and NEVER MISS ONE EPISODE!!!The Dead
