Review by MzOuiser

I was hopelessly addicted to this show - and to Jack Noseworthy, who played Ed Bellamy. (I've followed his career ever since.) Ed Bellamy is a 20-year old who has a microchip implanted in his head, along with several hundred other kids, as part of a secret government experiment. It makes him a genius, but on their 21st birthday, the test subjects strangely die suddenly. Ed and his not-quite-but-any-day-now-girlfriend Maria - played by a young Lisa Dean Ryan - are on a quest to find the scientist who put the chip in, so it can be removed before Ed goes kaput. They drive around a huge old 70s car and stay one step ahead of the feds, who (of course) are trying to kill them as part of the cover-up. In 1994, "X-files" was already in its first or second season, but Sci-fi's "Invisible Man" didn't come out for several years after - and this show is very much in the style of both.

I used to tape this show (I was a busy college student at the time), but MTV changed their program schedule several times, and I missed some key episodes - like the LAST ONE!! If anyone at MTV is listening, PLEASE! Run it again! Jack Noseworthy (an American Heath Ledger) and Lisa Dean Ryan recognizable stars now. Come on, this sci-fi, cute-guy-and-sassy-gal type show always does well!
