I can’t believe how many shows I keep missing out, only to discover years later. Hopefully this time around this show has not been cancelled yet and I even discovered they were renewed for a fourth season. The show is called The 4400 and I’ve heard of it in a while but it’s never interesting to jump into a show when it’s been airing for three years. I caught glimpse of it on the Space channel and was immediately interested to hear that these people had special abilities. Little more was needed for me to run out and seek all three seasons and watch every available episode back to back.
The premise of the show is simple and they were nice to add a reminder of that during the latter season. Over the past 60 years, people have been abducted (just disappeared) only to be returned all together in a ball of light. At first they were welcomed in fear and apprehension of not knowing what their purpose was and how the mysterious abilities they had were to play in the world we live in.
You don’t have to be a science fiction lover to enjoy what the show has to offer. But I will admit that it does not really improve the genre. After catching up in a record time last night. I went over to see when the fourth season would start and it seems to be TONIGHT at 9PM. Talk about weird timing… perhaps the future has a plan for me… And how can you say no to some Darth Vader mind choking and ultimate fight against good and evil. You’re served with mind readers, future viewers, healers and all sort of crazy powers. You can watch the season three finale on USA’s website and be sure to tune in to see how the battle of the future is settled in the past.
