I'm really out of the loop. It took me 10 years to discover this series even existed. I was watching TV this morning at 6 AM when I came across the first episode of the series ("Amazing Grace") on the W channel (yes, the fat chick channel!) concerning a boy's mysterious survival of a drowning experience. Adian Pasdar, in a diving suit, was having an amusing if improbable discussion with Rae Down Chong on a frozen lake. The natural, offbeat and yet perfectly logical and even witty banter of the two characters was so far removed from the usual TV clichés and so brilliant in its own unassuming way that I just had to see this story to the end, even though parts of it seemed to indicate that this was a - ugh! - Canadian production (the BC setting, among other things). I was mortified to learn later that this is a cult series that actually went under the radar and only survived two years on prime time television and didn't even make it to DVD yet. That's too bad because here is a series that replaces the usual formulas with a meaningful, affecting subtext and lets the viewer do some of the brain work for a change. In a way, the fact that such an excellent, well-written, uplifting and thoughtful series didn't succeed in the open market is yet another confirmation that most US TV production is essentially lowest-common denominator "trash with dismemberments and major boobage" but that is very little comfort to me. I guess I will have to wake up at 6 AM every day and watch the W (!) channel to see the rest. I believe Adrian Pasdar is the most original TV actor I have seen in a long time. His very existence and survival in the world of television is something to be wondered at and a possible clue to the existence of God. Seriously.

I really think it is one of the better shows right now on television so if you get to watch it on the ' "W" Network' ....Please do...On this years "Christmas " list is "MYSTERIOUS WAYS" box set D,V,D,... Please Santa... This show never grows tiresome for me and if I've seen an episode already so what... IT is that good! The acting of the three main characters superb- And Adrian Pasdar can do no wrong in my opinion.The show almost appears to have even developed a cult-like following of fans; so why not take the ball and run with it.I've seen other shows that are out on D.V.D. that are not near as good! There is always a moral message to be learned in each show and it kind of reminds me of touched by an angel. Another great show that will be missed when re-runs are not made available. So sad.

This is a religious show at heart. I didn't see it until it was already dead. But I have a weakness for MR. JIM PROFIT himself aka Declan Dunn aka Adrian Pasdar + Rae Dawn Chong (Peggy Fowler) and with watching the show Alison Down (Miranda).This is a making you comfortable and explaining the world show. Kind of like the JAG of the Xfiles kind of always with an explanation of everything with a LITTLE doubt (opposite JAG).However quite addicting (like any show) if you grow fond of any of the characters....But it's it a good show??? I'm not sure... Some 25% of the show are extremely good - but I would have to say - for the part : they are just average 60 % with some 15 % totally poor.As a show it falls between X-files and 7heaven (the priest with his xtreamly large family show - very funny in a sad way / or wrong way show).If u like it - see it - otherwise d'ont - but hang on for 7 episodes - it is a sneaker...Njoy ld1

I fell in love with this show within the first 10 minutes of watching the pilot episode. I've watched X-files since day one, and believe it is one of the best shows to ever have tackled the "unknown"...... but Mysterious Ways has more heart and that is what sets it apart. The acting is fabulous! Adrian Pasdar is very charismatic, and his character is wonderful, (I've already fallen in love with Declan!) And Rae Dawn Chong adds a powerful and insightful side to the duo that just makes me want to know her character in real life. I think these two have a great relationship on screen. Both Adrian and Rae detailed movie and t.v. histories, but I think this show will really help them along. Looking forward to the next episode already!! Monday is my new favorite day of the week!
