68. Catch up on The Dead Zone

Over this last week, I finished the last disc of Season 4 of The Dead Zone. Not a bad season! It might be a while until I can watch Season 5 since it seems to be in high demand on Blockbuster Online.

• Babble On- This was an INCREDIBLE episode. Full of thrills and mystery. I've liked glimpses at Johnny's parents in the past, and this was even better. I loved his determination and the possibilities brought up in this episode.


• Coming Home- Oohhh. Sad and scary, and another episode reminding Johnny of how he can't get away from his gift any time in his life.


• Saved- Excellent! More Stillson! I enjoyed this episode very much. It was fascinating seeing the different sides of Stillson, and the fallout over what's happened. I felt sorry for his girlfriend throughout... but more importantly, it was a surprise to me to see that taking out one little factor such a person might stop the destruction. Such a balance of morals... I guess we'll see what happens in future episodes, but I didn't feel like I was left hanging either, which was great.


• A Very Dead Zone Christmas- This was hilarious. I've got to say that the characters went a little more OOC than I would have liked. But it was great to see Alex pop in for a surprise visit! It was fascinating seeing Alex & Johnny sharing visions and figuring out the Santa mystery. And then it ends with the happy, warm & fuzzy that you'd expect from any Christmas epsidoe. Unlike most Christmas things, I probably would have actually enjoyed it more if I'd watched it during Christmas time. The magic was there... it just wasn't as strong. Domestic!Bruce in an apron was hilarious, though :-)
