A well written Sci-fi show that deserved a chance to grow and tell more stories. I really appreciated the positive message the show portrays and the acting was consistent from all of the actors. The show reminds me of Macguyer which is rare in the TV landscape that is so cynical and dark these days.

This show is my all time 2nd favorite TV show ever. 2nd only to the original "Star Trek" which only lasted 3 years, but came back with 5 or 6 spin offs and movies, eventually lasting for almost 4 decades now. The Visitor was a great combination of "The Fugitive" meets "Starman". The Visitor was nominated for several awards. The writing was great, the character development was great, I am left baffled why it was ever canceled. I loved the conflict between the FBI and the NSA, and the concept that Adam's physiology was corrected, giving back his ability to use the other 90% of his brain, thus enabling him to use telekinesis and telepathy.Does anyone know if this show was ever produced on DVD. I would love to buy it!

John Corbett (Who I first saw in another series called Northern Frontiers) is marvellous in this series... Empathic,kindhearted yet mysterious like a wandering magician, while being hounded by the government who desperately seeks to get what they think he hides..Unfortunately only 13 episodes was made of this series,but I like so many fans of this great series hopes that the series will be picked up again, so that we may learn more about the Character Adam McArthur..He is truly a mystery waiting to be solved, an enigma waiting for an answer..

This series is just awful on all accounts. The acting for one is terrible. Adam, or whats-his-name looks like an idiot and that "I have to save humanity from itself"-cliché is very, very thin. The bad guys are just so unconvincing and stupid and feeble that it hurts to watch. Adam can just walk into a ultra-security installation conducting ultra-security experiments and steal an ultra-powerful crysal and not get a scratch, suuure. And then it is the bad guys habit of just half-surrounding the building Adam is in and not sending in troops to catch him so he can conveniently escape. Juck. Then there is how everyone just seems to LOVE Adam. Take the FBI guys for example, always taking his side. Another example: the wife of that scientist who was sending a device to listen to the aliens into space. Adam walks into her house during her son's birthday and poses as a magician. Then she finds out he is a dangerous man talking about aliens and then disappears. Then her husband gets into a car crash and she blames the men he works for and embraces Adam!!!! Come on! Also, those annoying kids, like the teenage boy in the first episode, who Adam helps and becomes their hero or somthing. Juck. Stay well away from this series.
