CANADA STARTS THE DEAD ZONE
Looks like someone at the Globe loved the 2 part premeire to the series. Outside The Box Compares the movie to the series and how 2 different actors manage to make the same character credible in different ways.

Space begins a TV adaptation
of King's The Dead Zone Tuesday at
9 p.m. (The New VR airs the shot-in-Vancouver series Wednesday at 10 p.m.)
Cronenberg, a master at measuring dread and loss, has been replaced by cheerful adven-turers, Michael and Shawn Piller, who last brought us Star Trek: Voyager.
So why, with different venues and artistic sensibilities at play, do both
the film and TV series work so well?
