Storyline

Facing life without parole for a crime he ultimately didn't commit, crook Darien Fawkes is offered a pardon if he'll agree to participate in his brother's medical experiment: the insertion into his brain of a synthetic gland which secretes a light-bending substance called Quicksilver, which renders whoever or whatever is cloaked in it invisible. But Quicksilver also breaks down Darien's sanity without the regular injection of a counter-agent, and when terrorists gun down everyone involved in the project and steal all the relevant information, Darien is recruited by the experiment's backers, an ultra-secret and under-funded intelligence agency subsidized by the Department of Fish and Game, to stop the terrorists, avenge his brother's death, and get a fresh hit of the counter-agent.

ahem. . . I found my new favorite show!!!
23 July 2000 | by See all my reviews

First of all, let me say that I have found my new favorite show!! And believe me, I haven't had one of those since the show "Quantum Leap" came out. Vincent Ventresca is a welcome addition to this show. Okay. . . ahem. . . he basically MAKES the whole show, meaning his whole manner (charm, charisma, rapport with other characters on the show) is what makes this show soooooo beautiful and worth watching!! The story line just happens to kick ass as well. When you twist good humor with Sci-Fi, its bound to be a winner. And this show has plenty of humor to boot. Vincent Ventresca's attractiveness is definitely a bonus, but not at all necessary after witnessing his pleasant on-screen performance show after show. So, like I said, I have definitely found my new favorite show!!
