The Dead Zone’s Alive and Kicking

Season four of USA Network’s The Dead Zone began last Sunday. We only just caught it last night… but what a catch!

This excellent series still manages to be true to even supporting characters, while allowing everyone to develop slowly over time. The “Stilson” episodes have consistently delivered the most chills since season one, and this fourth season opener was no exception.

No spoilers here, just watch and thank us later. Scheduling is no excuse not to catch this genre gem: the USA Network liberally sprinkles additional showings of each episode throughout the week.
