thoughtcrimes is a tv-movie that is obviously a pilot for a series that did not get picked up (based on how the main characters have moved on to other roles). that’s too bad, because it is pretty good, and probably would have made a good series. there’s some really clever use and portrayal of the main character’s telepathy. the story is a bit over-streamlined in places, but moves along on a good pace and doesn’t get as stupid as you might fear for such a concept. fire up the tivo, because it just a few upcoming airings.
