“Gone Part 2″
Part 2 takes the set up it was given in Part 1 and makes it work. Unfortunately a show shouldn’t have to MAKE it work. If it’s MAKING it work, that means characters and situations are being shoehorned into the plot against their will.

by Paul Talon on Jul.30, 2008, under 4400, Reviews by Paul Talon, Television
“Gone” is a clever episode overall, and a good set up for Part II which I knew even before I saw it would be tough to wrap. But that’s next review. Set up is generally easy, but sometimes difficult to build the proper excitement

“Being Tom Baldwin”
“Being Tom Baldwin” is…well passable. There’s nothing wrong with it per se…it’s just tired. It’s a 4400er of the week with a little frosting to tie it in to the main arc.

I try not to comment too much on previews but I did think this looked good. It has a great central theme and is based on something besides mindless action like the other preview I just posted.
