Just saw this more or less by mistake, but I watched all the way through before finding out it was supposed to be a TV series. Then wanting to see if there were more I found out it was a single pilot. Did learn it was done in 1989 and it shows. Another reviewer said it suffered from bad writing. Well, I guess that would be true, but overall it could have been a fairly good TV series.There are still a few people that think people do not use the full potential of their minds, or brain. While I am in no position to debate the issue, it would still a make for a good story if the writing were improved. The writing may have been OK for 1989 but for today it would need to be tightened up. I wouldn't mind seeing the young man find his birth mother, and from what was shown, she may have the same powers as he does. I would like to see this done. But it has the earmarks of other stories of people looking for someone while at the same time being hunted. The Fugitive comes to mind. Or the early Hulk TV show. That it was so much like those may have been why it wasn't picked up as a series.

I agree this could have been a great series for television but it got lost in the shuffle of the late 80's. I would love to see them remake it and turn it into a series and have all the questions answered. If they do remake this maybe they could get some of the original cast to reprise their roles. I know that the actor that played Michael has retired from acting but recast the lead role and relaunch it and see if it makes the grade for a series and if it does make the grade then get all the questions answered for everyone and here's a question that needs answering as well, "Where did they come from?". add all of those elements and it could be great

This story involves a young man of uncertain parentage whose foster mother and father have died. The young man has mental gifts far beyond normal folks, able to assemble complicated toys as a child, blowing the top off an intelligence test, and even able to heal folks and animals with his gift. Now that his parents are dead and an evil doctor is after him, he's on a road trip to find his real mother.One question. If he's so smart why did he get such bad writers to tell his story? I really wanted to like this movie and the fact that the actor was attractive in a vulnerable, open sort of way would have made that easy. If it weren't for the HORRIBLE writing. Even a fantasy story needs some rationalization.

This had all the good elements for a good T.V. show. The story line sounds a little like Smallville and Roswell. So why was it not a series? The story about a young man with special powers. On the run from a government. And tries to find why he is so different. All the questions never got answered.
