Wonderful series, 1 March 2008
9/10
Author: alexa_beth from United States

This series has most everything you want in an entertaining show; there is enough heart for the casual viewer, and dynamic "otherworldliness" for the sci-fi fan. Paul Blackthorne is great, he doesn't let his charm and good looks get in the way of drawing you into his character. Valerie Cruz is saavy enough to be a cop and warm enough to be a friend. I couldn't get a handle on Terrance Mann's character, but what does one expect from a ghost? The special effects deserve a mention on their own. They are fantastic all through the series. Different effects for the different situations and characters without being heavy-handed. I rated this a 9 because the middle episodes had some blood in the shows, and even though it was always called for and didn't cross the line to be gory, I just don't care for it. Overall, it's a great series with fantastic actors. I look forward to more!
