Entering its fourth season, "Zone'' has developed into a very dependable bit of entertainment: a well-told tale of the supernatural with good storytelling and a decent cast headed by Anthony Michael Hall as powerful psychic Johnny Smith.

This season's premiere episode takes off from where last season's cliffhanger ended, with Smith on the run from a trumped-up murder charge. He's also still trying to stop the murder of an evil congressman, Greg Stillson (Sean Patrick Flanery). Meanwhile, Smith's visions are becoming more and more apocalyptic.

It's all good, if somewhat improbable, stuff so settle in for "Zone's'' run.
