      Press Release - FOX - New Show Synopses - Past Life

      Have you ever experienced dj vu or met someone you thought seemed familiar? Do you believe in karma, fate or love at first sight? From writer David Hudgins ("Friday Night Lights"), and inspired by the book "The Reincarnationist" by M.J. Rose, comes PAST LIFE, a new drama series about an unlikely pair of past-life detectives who investigate whether what is happening to you today is the result of who you were before. DR. KATE MCGINN (Kelli Giddish, "All My Children") is not your typical psychologist. Confident, outspoken and highly educated, she works at The Talmadge Center for Behavioral Health in New York City, a world-renowned institute dedicated to the study of the science of the soul. After experiencing a past-life regression in her 20s, Kate became a believer in reincarnation. Using regression therapy and her natural gift for reading people, Kate helps solve the mysteries of her troubled clients who suffer from present-day problems caused by past-life traumas. She believes there are levels of consciousness and explanations for human behavior that science can't begin to explain. Accustomed to skeptics, but not bothered by them, Kate is an unapologetic believer and a force of nature who marches to the beat of her own drummer. Her partner, PRICE WHATLEY (Nicholas Bishop, "Home and Away"), is a different story. A former NYPD homicide detective, pragmatic and cynical, Price is a damaged soul who constantly battles grief and guilt over the accidental death of his wife. Price feels that Kate, though not certifiable, certainly operates on the fringes of science. It's a volatile relationship, but with Price's solid detective skills, and Kate's penchant for out-of-the-box thinking, together they make a formidable, if somewhat dysfunctional, team. A fast-paced emotional thrill ride, each episode finds Price and Kate working with their colleagues to unravel a new mystery involving the past-lives of their clients. DR. MALACHI TALMADGE (Richard Schiff, "The West Wing") is Kate's mentor and the center's namesake, an avuncular but gruff elder statesman who is a legend in the field of cognitive research. DR. RISHI KARNA (Ravi Patel, "Scrubs") is the rookie of the group, a baby-faced therapist from Calcutta who loves bad American TV, Cuban jazz and driving everyone crazy.

              Fall TV: Which sci-fi/fantasy series will win, lose, draw?

              Past Life: This one's about a team that investigates past lives to solve problems in present lives. Fox is calling it a "fast-paced thriller," where a mystery "needs to be solved in both the past and the present." Ohhhkayy. Whether or not the idea for the series sounds preposterous, Fox is behind it 100 percent. It's got the best slot on television, after Tuesday's American Idol performance show. We're calling Past Life a DRAW. Sorry. The timeslot is a WINNER, but the series is a "fast-paced thriller" about reincarnation. Although the show's clips do remind us a little bit of Ghost Whisperer

                    Sounds like quantum leap. In fact, you could almost use that same description of the show for both of them.

                          New Series on Fox...Past Life


                          Have you ever experienced deja vu or met someone you thought seemed familiar? Do you believe in karma, fate or love at first sight? Have you ever had an out-of-body experience?

                          From writer David Hudgins ("Friday Night Lights"), and inspired by the book "The Reincarnationist" by M.J. Rose, comes PAST LIFE, a new drama series that investigates the world of the unexplained through the eyes of a doctor and a former detective who must work together to solve decades-old mysteries.

                              I saw the episode that aired last night (2/09) on Fox. It seemed pretty interesting. I enjoyed the episode quite a bit.

                              In the special episode there was a boy named Noah who was having visions. It turned out that the visions were of his past life as a little girl who'd been kidnapped and murdered.

                              Did anyone else catch the episode? What did you think?
