This is one of the more whimsical episodes. Johnny, while receiving blood on a hospital bed, gets visions of 6 different people and all he knows is that one of them is going to die.
He tries desperately to give an officer clues to go by. 😂

In this episode, Johnny has visions of a drug causing birth defects years down the road. It’s not exactly a riveting plotline.

So, Johnny meets Death inside Walt Bannerman’s mind.

Johnny is traveling through Walt Bannerman’s mind and experiencing his whole romantic history with Sarah.
His whole, boring, romantic history. He’s just not a compelling character.

OMG – Bannerman is in a coma.
How stupid would it be if he too came out of it with psychic powers and had ongoing battles with Johnny?

Getting sucked down like you were flushed in a toilet bowl has got to be a horrible way to go.

While watching this ep, I took a peek at the IMDB trivia for this series. This blew my mind!
“The cane that Johnny (Anthony Michael Hall) used throughout the series is the same one used by Stu Redman in The Stand (1994) and Andre Linoge in Storm of the Century (1999), just with a different head.”

This character, who seemed to be able to cleverly manipulated Johnny knowing his psychic powers, would have made an excellent series-long arch villain. I’m disappointed he was just a one-and-done bad guy.

Johnny admits he hasn’t had a vision in weeks? Maybe it’s the haircut that sapped his strength. 🤔

Why did Anthony Michael Hall have to get such an odd haircut for season 2? Is this another throwback to Walken’s initial hairdo in the movie?

Sean Patrick Flanery is a decent Greg Stilson, but he’s no Martin Sheen. Lacks the charisma.
