    So once again, another good series gets terminated before it really has a chance to prove itself. This occurence is familiar, as it ended after only 13 episodes, like Key West did in 1993. Recall Key West had new ideas also. This series had many good ideas, such as a person who was transported 40 years into the future, and learned much that could help humankind in years to come. The shows main character Adam McArthur reminded others about how there is so much more to the world than meets the eye and your mind is capable of much more than most of us use. Here, in the 21st century, we could use a show like this one with more hope and a positive outlook. Has anyone in network TV considered giving this one another try?

    This series is just awful on all accounts. The acting for one is terrible. Adam, or whats-his-name looks like an idiot and that "I have to save humanity from itself"-cliché is very, very thin. The bad guys are just so unconvincing and stupid and feeble that it hurts to watch. Adam can just walk into a ultra-security installation conducting ultra-security experiments and steal an ultra-powerful crysal and not get a scratch, suuure. And then it is the bad guys habit of just half-surrounding the building Adam is in and not sending in troops to catch him so he can conveniently escape. Juck. Then there is how everyone just seems to LOVE Adam. Take the FBI guys for example, always taking his side. Another example: the wife of that scientist who was sending a device to listen to the aliens into space. Adam walks into her house during her son's birthday and poses as a magician. Then she finds out he is a dangerous man talking about aliens and then disappears. Then her husband gets into a car crash and she blames the men he works for and embraces Adam!!!! Come on! Also, those annoying kids, like the teenage boy in the first episode, who Adam helps and becomes their hero or somthing. Juck. Stay well away from this series.

    I wish they'd make more episodes, too! I kept hoping he would eventually meet up with his son. I was so bummed when the series was canceled and it seemed like they rushed the final episode because it had been canceled.
