The Dead Zone is alive again on USA tonight at 10p and it is so in the zone!
The Dead Zone is back tonight and there are a lot of changes ahead for the show. Anthony Michael Hall who plays Johnny Smith told
Sci Fi that the show moved from it’s home of 5 years, Vancouver to Montreal. But that is not all that is changing for the show. The season starts off with the loss of two important characters. I read last year that they were going to be killing off characters and I guessed right who one of the two was that died in the season premiere. I will not tell you who dies, but the death was very emotional. As hard as Johnny tried to stop the death, he wasn’t able to and I am sure that will change his outlook on things and how he uses his power to see the future. That is not the only change for Johnny Smith, now when he touches the newly appointed Vice President of the United Stated, Greg Stillson (Sean Patrick Flanery – one of my to do actors) he doesn’t see the end of the world like he used to. Does that mean Stillson is not the doomsday person he once was or is there something wrong with Johnny’s powers? I can’t wait to see how that plays out!
There were rumors last year that season 5 was going to be The Dead Zone’s last season, I am glad that rumor was not true and the show is back for it’s sixth season! So please watch this show tonight and every Sunday night on USA at 10p, so we can get a lucky 7th season! This show is one of the few shows I actually watch in repeats, so that should give you a hint how good this show really is!
BTW another thing I find fun about watching The Dead Zone is looking at Anthony Michael Hall now and still not believing that is the same guy that was part of the brat pack in the ’80s! In fact yesterday’s episode was the first time I forgot about that!
