Watch Dead Zone

Dead Zone was an American science fiction television series that aired on USA from 2002 to 2007. The show was based on the novel of the same name by Stephen King and followed the story of a man named Johnny Smith, played by Anthony Michael Hall, who wakes up from a coma after six years and discovers that he has the ability to see into the future and past of a person, by simply touching them.

Johnny, who was once a successful teacher and engaged to his girlfriend, Sarah (played by Nicole de Boer), struggles to fit into the world after his long absence. He is plagued by visions and unsettling premonitions of events, both good and bad, and is compelled to help people in need. In this way, his supernatural abilities become both a curse and a gift, as Johnny uses his visions to prevent tragedies and save lives.

In addition to his visions, Johnny also has knowledge of past events, which helps him to solve crimes and uncover conspiracies in the small town of Cleaves Mills where he resides. As the series progresses, Johnny becomes more confident in his abilities and begins to use them to help the authorities in their investigations.

Johnny is assisted by his best friend, a local sheriff named Walt Bannerman (played by Chris Bruno), who often struggles to understand Johnny's visions but is always willing to lend a hand. Johnny's interactions with Walt and other characters in the show help to add depth to his character and provide insight into his struggles with his abilities.

The show also explores the personal relationships of the characters, both inside and outside of Johnny's visions. Johnny's relationship with Sarah is a recurring theme throughout the show. While Sarah has moved on with her life since Johnny's accident, she still cares for him deeply and their relationship is often an important subplot in the show.

Additionally, Johnny has a close bond with his physical therapist, Bruce (played by John L. Adams), who helps him to deal with the psychological challenges of his abilities. Bruce becomes a confidant and a sounding board for Johnny, and the two develop a deep friendship over the course of the series.

The show also features a number of guest stars, including musicians like Huey Lewis, Meat Loaf, and Michael Bublé, as well as actors like Tom Skerritt and Jay Mohr.

Overall, Dead Zone was a well-written and well-acted sci-fi series that explored the human condition through the lens of supernatural abilities. Its central premise, that of a man struggling to balance his gifts against the weight of the world, provided a solid foundation for the show's social commentary and character development. Despite its five-season run, Dead Zone remains a fan favorite and a memorable entry in the sci-fi television canon.

Dead Zone is a series that ran for 6 seasons (80 episodes) between June 16, 2002 and on USA
