This show given the proper chance has the ability to tug at your hear strings. This show is about a guy who is engulfed in his own prosperity only to find out he has a brain aneurysm which in turn causes him to turn his life around.
The show highlights the good in people that we should all strive to show to everyone everyday. It is everything modern television has drifted away from. It could be called a modern day highway to heaven.
It's obvious that the person who reviewed this show on the main page doesn't know what good television is. Come on, comparing Eli Stone to Quantum Leap? That's like comparing apples and oranges!
Eli Stone is a drama laced with some comedic elements that leave you wanting more at the end of every show. And the characters are 3-dimentional enough to where you are left actually caring for them. Something that cannot be said about most shows out there.
Eli Stone is a show you can really get into!
I enjoy Eli Stone Every Thursday Night. I also make sure I TiVo it, in case I missed something during a break. But I do suggest It to many people out there. I just wish they added more TV time for that Maggie Character.
I think though a little hokey at first, the characters are endearing and it does send out messages of hope and if you don't have hope, you don't have anything.
