Unfortunately Nowhere Man, one of the best shows ever on TV, was cancelled secondary to network politics and not the quality of the show. Thankfully, 10 years later, the series has been brought back to us on DVD so that future generations can enjoy it. I guess there is little hope of this show being brought back, but one can always hope. I highly suggest that you check this series out!

I absolutely loved this show. I had missed a few episodes when it aired (not many), and was eager to see them all over again. I was hooked from the first episode, once you start watching, you really want to keep putting in the next one. The premise is terrific, the stories are mostly excellent, the acting is very good. The actor playing the title character Thomas Veil could not be better in the role. I have several favorite episodes, the first was a masterful classic, just mind-boggling, the last episode comes to mind as basically equally mind-blowing. The most amazing thing about Nowhere Man was how something could be that good, and not get renewed for a second season. Artistically it was neat how they managed to episodically comment on some aspect of society and/or identity in almost every episode - urban crime zones, the Internet, betrayal, mind-control, even the war on terror! (Prescient, given that the series was on long before Sept. 11th) Highly, highly recommend, especially to fans of mystery and/or intrigue, and there is a not entirely minor sci-fi cross-over component to its' appeal. Long overdue to see this avaialble on DVD - FINALLY! Worth every penny and then some, one of few TV series you could easily watch again and again and enjoy, appealing on so many levels.

I got my DVDs and opened it up, and there were DVDs sliding all over because of broken plastic tabs inside. These hard plastic packages are crap, and it's time they stopped using them. Now I'll need to move all the DVDs over to another case to keep them from getting scratched.
Otherwise, amazing show, great DVD release, Nowhere Man was way ahead of it's time when it came out, and I think it would fare better today, even with a new cast and starting from the very beginning.

Nowhere Man is a fantastic series but lacks a happy ending! I heard about this show back in 1995 when UPN was starting it's new network. Back then, Star Trek: Voyager was on Monday at 8pm, and Nowwhere Man was on at 9pm on UPN. I remember those days. Bruce Greenwood is Thomas Veil, a photographer, who took a photograph called"Hidden Agenda". Hidden Agenda was a very important photograph because it pictures four men hanged in gallows by U.S. soilders. It was fasinating idea, that this group called "The Organization" was after Thomas Veil and his negatives. I thought this was a wonderful psychological thiller! It was about conspiracy and paranoia. I thought this was a great show. Unfortunatly, the show only last 25 episodes with the last episode asking more questions than having answers to. I like this show very much but I am upset at the UPN network for canceling the show before it's time and giving us a bad ending in the episode, "Gemini Man" I like this show very much but the show might make you paranoid about conspiracy.

NowhereMan was a fantastic show! It truly was one of the first "appointment" television shows. However, concerning the DVD...I've purchased 3 copies and ALL three had a problem with DVD #9, which includes the final episode. Amazon is supposed to be investigating this problem, but I have not heard as to whether there is a resolution. Beware before you buy.
