With this summer season sizzling along with shows like The Closer and Rescue Me comes the return of Phych and the series premier
of Burn Notice, The Dead Zone has under gone some interesting changes. As we discussed in previous posts, they started out the season by killing off one of the main characters and writing one off leaving town for another job. Also, they seemed to have changed the whole reoccurring storyline borrowed from the book this series was based off that they have been building up since the show's creation. Not only did they seem to change the direction of their storyline but the whole show seems to have an entirely different feel. The writing and flow of the show has a slightly darker feel and seems to be shifting to more character building scripts.
In the last episode the story focused on John's son JJ who now seems to be developing a pychic ability of his own. Like his father he was able to guess continuously where the Fortune Wheel would land when they were at the traveling carnival. It yet remains to be seen where these changes take us and whether they are for the better.
Stay tuned for reviews on the new series Burn Notice and the return of Phych!
