Does anyone remember this TV show, in like 1999 or there abouts.  This was one of my favorite TV shows, it only went for one season but it was a good season and it ended with one the best cliff hanger i've seen, but the worst thing was that it was the last episode and it never resolved.

This might jog your memory - It was about a Insurance salesman (John Goodman) who was acidently pushed onto a railway track in a suybway on his way home from work. His wife agrees to have his body dontaed for science and his brain is trasnplanted into another body of gentically enhanced man (the guy in With out a trace, not Lapalia but the other guy)who is cabable of doing superhuman things.

It was cancelled by Fox (wow they realy make a habit of cancelling good TV shows) because there was a similar TV show called 'Once and Again'.

Does anyone know if Now & Again is coming out on DVD? or if anyone else knows what i am talking about?

I know of what you speak, and I've heard nothing of DVD sets. And I'm pretty sure they didn't cancel it just because it had a similar title to another show.

I can remember liking it, but I can't remember much else.

Yeah everyone Loved that show. I taped the last episode. I liked the Cliffhanger, sorta left you thinking like Butch Cassidy. You knew what happened but you harboured a glimmer of hope that He really did make it.

Hang on a sec, even though it was an American show, the only people who've heard of it (so far) are Australians? ('cept maybe hopie) hmmm...

It really makes you think.

Oh yeah, I loved that show. It's possibly the most ridiculous thing ever but you don't care because it's so entertaining.
