{television} the dead zone; season two (2002)

The second season of the TV adaptation of Stephen King's best-selling novel comes to life with even more plot twists than the first season. After a near-fatal car wreck, Johnny Smith (Anthony Michael Hall) is left in a coma for 6 years. When he awakens, he discovers that he's developed astonishing psychic powers that allow him to see into the future life of anyone he happens to physically touch. King's trademark suspense runs strongly throughout.

ifreethought.com rating: **** Michael and Shawn Piller hit another homerun with the second season of Dead Zone, which was almost better than the first season. While this season started out a little slow (the first two episodes after the premier with Walt in the mine and in a coma were boring as hell), but the season quickly picked up with several great episodes like Precipitate (the blood donation episode), Misbegotten (the abduction episode), and Cabin Pressure (the airplane episode) as well as the season finale.
