I removed the sentence "Many people see parallels between The Visitor and the much more popular series the 4400", because not only was no support or source cited, but I hold this statement to be highly dubious. This show ran nearly a decade ago, and for only one season -- I doubt "most people" are aware this show ever even existed, given how many shows FOX cancels every season. Also, the 4400 don't deal with alien abduction, but with "future abduction" -- the abductees were taken and modified by humans from the future. In addition, the show's formats are also divergent enough to make a comparison unlikely -- the 4400 has a large, stable cast, whereas The Visitor focused on two main characters.


This is the best science fiction series I have ever seen. I wish I could see this series once again. I couldn't find a way to get this series, not for money and not from filesharing programs.

If someone will ever read this and know where I can get this series I will realy appreciate email with that information.

thanks! daniel - 333222@gmail.com
