    Scanialara You won't be disappointed!
    SpuffyWeb Sadly Over-hyped
    SeeQuant Blending excellent reporting and strong storytelling, this is a disturbing film truly stranger than fiction
    Brendon Jones It’s fine. It's literally the definition of a fine movie. You’ve seen it before, you know every beat and outcome before the characters even do. Only question is how much escapism you’re looking for.
    marcum-2 Only caught a few episodes before it suddenly ended... what I did see I found intriguing and very moving at times.The sort of show that inspires good deeds, don't you think?"Heroes" does that a little bit as well - despite the frequent gore ;) Let's hope it {Miracles} reincarnates itself one day soon.I'm not one to watch much TV, but when I catch one or two episodes of a show worthy of my time - I'll wait for it to come out on DVD so I can catch the entire series without interruption and in proper sequence.Purchased entire season of Miracles on DVD for just $10 on ebay - can't wait to be inspired!
    liberalgems I tried my best to keep an open mind! "Miracles" borders on camp. Story lines make no sense. The boy ghost says the evil spirit "wants everything." Really now? That's a truly exciting revelation! Especially when in an earlier episode, at his funeral, the same boy ghost shows up all happy, and at peace. We are led to believe there's closure. Can't the writers make-up their minds? Or, are they trying to save money by not hiring more actors!One episode even turned an old lady into jelly! She caves in and tells her deep, dark secret because one of our dopey investigators had the audacity to ask twice. Wow! That would convince me to spill the beans to a bunch of strangers after keeping my mouth shut for well over 50 years! The acting is not inspiring, either. There's no chemistry. At times I get the feeling the main characters don't know if they are going to be filming the next episode. Sometimes it seems like the actors are trying hard not to giggle. Keep in mind this not supposed to a comedy show! This series is a cross between X-files and Bewitched. A confusing mess to say the least! Good try, no cigar!
    brakneus I just finished watching the last, 13th episode. And it's really a shame, and the more I think about it, absolutely incomprehensible that they cancelled this show. I've seen many tvshows, but never such a perfect mix of mystery and heartfelt storylines.Watch it if it aires, buy the dvd if they make it, or download it from somewhere, it's worth it!
    macfeetiehome Here's another solid concept that fell victim to the whims of the great unwashed of American television audiences. A truly interesting concept, coupled with some solid acting by Ulrich and Macfayden made "Miracles" one of the freshest new shows of the 2002-2003 prime-time television season. Alas, probably because there was no one getting "voted off the Island" on it - it got voted off the Island pretty quickly. I will always rue the fact that the ultimate plot was never allowed to be revealed and the nature of the "God is nowhere" phenomenon was never explained to viewers. Like a succulent hybrid of "X-files" and "Millennium," "Miracles" promised the building intrigue of a huge, unraveled conspiracy theory and the creepy twisted irony of religion gone terribly awry. A real shame it was cancelled, especially while pap like "Big Brother" hangs around longer than the lunch special at Luby's. USA Network was brave enough to pick up "Monk" - I wish they'd have done the same for "Miracles." It'd be awesome for the Sci-Fi Network. Oh well, I expect no less from an obtuse network like ABC - maybe they can flog a couple more cheesy seasons out of that tired old "Practice" - but I doubt it.
