PILOT MOVIE DVD STILL GETS GREAT REVIEWS
DVD Talk.com gives a great review on the Wheel of Fortune/What it Seems DVD
Since the film is actually the first two episodes of the series, there really no wrap-up or conclusion to anything other than the serial killer plot that was introduced. No real questions are answered and it leaves the viewer wanting more. Hopefully a full season box set will follow.

There are many things to like about the show. Anthony Michael Hall (of Sixteen Candles and Weird Science fame) does an amazing job as Johnny Smith. As it’s written in the series, it’s a role many actors would love to have as it let’s Hall act out any of numerous roles as he’s experiencing something through another’s eyes.

Likewise, the show is never boring and it uses the idea of Johnny’s power to the fullest. Rather than a simple vocal explanation or visual flashback, striking visual effects and camera angels are used to present the rush of a vision as they come flooding into Johnny.
