Did you ever notice how the timing of certain events seems too weird to be true? I just finished watching the last episode of Nowhere Man, finally obtaining closure (well, some at least) to a quest I unknowingly began my first year of graduate school at Ohio State. I was able to obtain the entire series from someone who had recorded the show onto videotapes when it originally aired. I went that route after finding out that there was no official planned DVD release for Nowhere Man. As it turns out, after I finished watching the last episode this evening, I did a web search and discovered that the official 9 DVD box set was just released this Tuesday! I may have to buy it, just for nostalgia's sake, and to hear the additional commentaries, see deleted scenes, etc. It's available at a discount from Amazon.com http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000BC8SXS/102-5930742-1215361?v=glance&n=130&v=glance
Here are a couple other coincidences: Two months ago I saw Bruce Greenwood in I, Robot, a movie which I never planned to watch, based on the reviews of others, but happened upon while flipping channels in the hotel on a trip to Cincinnati. In addition, after watching a particular episode of Nowhere Man (An Enemy Within) which prominently featured a female actor (Maria Bello) who befriends Tom Veil, I saw her in the trailer for a movie that had just been released (A History of Violence).
I'm starting to wonder if "they" wanted me to see these things. Okay, well, not really, but it's fun to think about coincidences, randomness, and unexplained events now and then.
