stands paramount above an individually moral and/or ethical point of
view. All one apparently needs is to feel slighted, marred, injured or
overlooked to justify almost any behavior. It's not only possibly
acceptable to pump shotgun rounds into your parents' heads, but, under
the proper circumstances, it might be an act of political heroism.
We get to rail against racism and sexism with no regard as to whether or
not, in our cause, we are exhibiting the very behavior that we speak to
overthrow. In the midst of all this, a voice raised against the
group-think
will surely be considered a "troublemaker."
It opens seriously the question of "sides" at all. In The Prisoner,
there
was often a question of "is it us or them." In "Paradise" we open the
question, "what's the difference."

END OR REPOST

If you find this information to be interesting and of help in your
exploration of this new series let me know. I am enjoying the series
but have not seen enough of the episodes myself to make a firm
assessment.
I would appreciate further discussion here about Tom Veil and his
predicament in the series - I think we just might have a "sleeper"
here which could become much more successful with greater fan
attention.
Cheers and all my best!

-> I didn't see the original message, but I watch Nowhere Man. In fact,
-> I've recorded all the episodes so far. It's a good show, but I feel
-> it could be better. Many of the episodes just don't seem to..go
-> anywhere. Still, I'm hopeful.
I posted, tonight, information on tonight's repeat episode: Paradise on
Your Doorstep.
When Veil is drugged at the end the whole conspiracy comes spiralling
back into his face. I thought the story line was a pretty good one
despite the obvious connections one might make to "The Prisoner" with
Patrick McGoohan.
---------------------------------------------------------------------
Please note, there is a special 90-minute espisode of NOWHERE
MAN scheduled for NEXT WEEK! I'm not sure id this is a re-run of the
pilot or what but do tune in and we can discuss this one too.

Nope! No idea at all [sorry this is so late, been busy with other matters

Doesn't ring a bell... then again, i've got several stacks of books in my

I'm at a loss to find any real connection between WoH and B5... and i've
seen WoH [although not recently]. Without more to go on, i'd go with the

Australia though. :(

I cannot and will not believe such a statement. Do they attack you?
