[VS] The 4400
bron: trektodayUSA Network unveiled on Wednesday the highlights of its upcoming programming development slate, including a new original drama, 4400, written by Star Trek: Deep Space Nine's Rene Echevarria and Ira Steven Behr.
Jeff Wachtel, executive vice president in charge of series and longform programming, made the announcement, carried by PR Newswire, of an original movie and three limited series for USA.
Echevarria, a writer and producer of Star Trek: Deep Space Nine who scripted the controversial episode "Rejoined" and the concluding arc opener "Penumbra", will co-write the pilot of 4400, in which 4400 people who were previously presumed dead or reported missing begin to reappear, without having aged and with inexplicable superhuman powers.
A government agency is formed to keep track of the mysterious individuals after one of them commits murder.
USA describes the drama as science fiction. Behr will co-executive produce with Francis Ford Coppola and his production company, American Zoetrope, with Star Trek's parent company Viacom producing the limited series.
Since Deep Space Nine's finale, Echevarria has written for such shows as FOX's Dark Angel and CBS' Now and Again. Behr worked on UPN's revival of The Twilight Zone.

Meer info, ik vind dat het er boeiend uitziet, echter, ik ben wel bang voor vervroegd aflopen van deze serie netzo als dat met Firefly gebeurd is.

The 4400 Comes To USA
Rene Echevarria, executive producer of USA Network's upcoming SF show The 4400, told SCI FI Wire that the limited series picks up where Close Encounters of the Third Kind left off, as 4,400 long-missing people suddenly reappear all at once without having aged a day. "They don't know what happened to them, who or what was responsible, and now they have to pick up the pieces of their lives," Echevarria (Dark Angel) said in an interview. "It's equal parts SF and nighttime soap, so there's something for everybody in it."
The 4400 features Close Encounters star Peter Coyote as Ryland, who heads up the regional office of a government agency formed to keep track of the 4,400 people after one of them commits a murder and others start to exhibit unexplained powers. The cast also includes Joel Gretsch (SCI FI Channel's original miniseries Steven Spielberg Presents Taken) as Tom, a government agent who discovers a link between his comatose young son and the return of the 4,400. Jacqueline McKenzie portrays Diana, a biomedical researcher who's partnered with Tom. Gretsch's Taken co-star, Michael Moriarty, plays Orson, a recent returnee devastated by all that's happened to his family, business and wealth in the 25 years he's been away.
"The show was originally developed as a weekly series, and that's still a possibility if audiences respond to the story," said Echevarria, who also wrote for and produced Star Trek: Deep Space Nine. "The challenge was in constructing a six-hour miniseries that builds to a satisfying conclusion, and at the same time leaves some questions unanswered so we could continue the story if there's interest in doing that." The 4400 will debut as a two-hour special at 9 p.m. ET/PT July 11 on USA Network, with subsequent hours airing Sunday nights until Aug. 8. USA Network is owned by NBC Universal, which also owns SCIFI.COM.

Ik heb deze serie even doorgegeven aan de afdeling die over de aankopen gaat.
De trailer zag er veelbelovend uit in ieder geval.
Maar het gegeven doet inderdaad een beetje aan Roswell en The Visitor denken. Maar ik vond het jammer dat The Visitor na 13 afl werd geschrapt. Dus hopelijk dat deze serie een langer leven gaat krijgen.

Hij is ondertussen uit. Vond iemand die pilot net no aardig als ik? Ik hou wel van die spanningsopbouw. Er gebeurde heel weinig maar op een of andere manier had het wel een creepy sfeertje.
Ik denk alleen dat 4400 beter af is als miniserie dan als lopende serie. Ik denk dat anders vrij snel een sleur inkomt. Zondag 18 july gaat hij verder. ben benieuwd.
