I really enjoyed watching "The Others". I think they were just starting to really build the characters and the plot and boom "It was canceled!" Seems to be the way it goes with a lot of the really great shows.I felt it was an original idea by taking all types of characters and all types of their psychic abilities and meshing them together to make up a wonderful show. Each with their own unique ability and each helping the others learn to use and understand their gifts. Furthering them along in their own individual journey.I would've loved to see this show continue but maybe it was just ahead of it's time. I know I watched and waited for each new episode. I was really sorry to see this one end.I loved it and would encourage you to watch it if it ever comes out on VHS or DVD.

***SPOILERS*** ***SPOILERS*** There was only one series of THE OTHERS, but the producers must have thought they were gonna get a second. They thought wrong, but their misjudgment ultimately led to one of the most amazing final episodes of a series I've ever seen.Y'see, everyone DIES. The main characters - a group of supernaturally gifted geeks - are killed off one by one by an evil force. What a cliffhanger, eh? How do they get out of this one? Well, they don't.Obviously, the producers anticipated bringing all the characters back in the first episode of the never-to-be-made second series. Or perhaps we thought the characters were dying, but they get miraculously saved at the last moment. Or perhaps it was all a dream. We'll never know, as the series was axed and all the stars of the series stayed DEAD.Which, if you ever happen to catch this series on late-night reruns, gives THE OTHERS a downbeat, non-American TV twist that it otherwise doesn't deserve.

This rare show should have been showcased for it's cutting edge surrealistic look at paranormalities. Each persona was intriuging and unique. The relationships between the group had my imagination tweaked with what could really be possible. The show was fun to watch and I think the netwoks get spooked too quickly when they find a show like this and just doesn't know what to do. If done the right way, it could have been huge - like what CSI is doing. Too bad it was overlooked. I have the episodes on tape and re-watch the shows frequently. I am a fan!

Some may compare this show to "The X-Files", but I think that this takes the more psychological way out of mysteries, while "The X-Files" solves by way of medical evidence. Since tonight's episode was the first repeat, I thought I would come on to this board to review it. The past 7 or 8 episodes were outstanding, some of my favorites (and scariest) being the pilot episode, "Eyes", "Theta", and that one with the wallpaper (I forgot what that ep. was called). Julianne Nicholson is a great newcomer...I liked her in last year's "Storm of the Century", which I thought was great, as well. I also love the stupidness of Kevin J. as Warren...most will probably remember him from "The Mummy". Bottom line is, I hope this show doesn't get cancelled -- I'm glad they moved it from 10PM to 9PM, probably to get a bigger audience. It's a great show and should be more recognized.
