John Doe rates higher than Firefly
I was about to change channels after Firefly, when suddenly I was presented with an image of naked male buttocks. So I put down the remote. After that auspicious beginning, I was able to start paying attention to the plot. In a nutshell, it is about a man who wakes up one day in the middle of nowhere, without any knowledge of who or what he is, but who seems to be gifted with the knowledge of absolutely everything else in the universe. (He can recite the entire phone book, yellow and white pages, for example). He uses this knowledge to solve crimes, while at the same time seeking to discover the truth about himself. Those of you that have watched “The Pretender” may be experiencing a bad case of Deja Vu at this point in my narration. Yes, the premise is very similar. I did watch the whole thing though, not so much because of the storyline, but because the lead actor, Dominic Purcell (looked that up, yes I did! [img]images/smiles/icon_smile.gif[/img]) is very charismatic in the role. I don’t know if that will be enough to carry the show, but I will tune in again next week, just to get a second opinion that doesn’t involve bared posteriors [img]images/smiles/icon_smile.gif[/img]
