Now and Again

One man's brain, another man's body... This new series blends science fiction, suspense, fantasy and comedy.

Michael Wiseman (Eric Close) is a middle-aged insurance executive. When he is killed in a tragic subway accident, the U.S. government covertly make him an offer he can't refuse; they "keep his brain alive" and place it into a new, genetically bio-engineered body.

The doctor in charge, Dr Theodore Morris (Dennis Haysbert) of the experiment has grand plans for him, but all Michael wants is to get back to his grieving wife, Lisa (Margaret Colin) and daughter, Heather (Heather Matarazzo).

For security reasons, the government forbids such contact... not that Michael is going to let that stop him.

An eerie sub-plot features an elderly Chinese man placing eggs in public places that cause people's eyes to spurt blood.
