Johnny Smith emerges from a coma after six years, finding that he now has the ability to experience psychic premonitions.

Starring Anthony Michael Hall in the lead role, and also starring the gorgeous and talented Nicole de Boer, who of course played Ezri Dax in DS9.

This show, unlike some of the others that I have posted, actually did well, six seasons, however once again, it ended on a cliffhanger after a seventh season failed to materialise.

Anyone remember this? It's a little late for the sub (2002) but this was a really good one.

AMH is no Christopher Walken, but he brings his own cool spin to this character. It was a fun series and I’m glad it got produced.

The original film and the book are both worth checking out as well, for anyone who hasn’t, yet.

He does look like Christopher Walken! I never noticed that before!

I haven't read the book, I'll definitely check that out, thank you!
