- Synopsis
- TV Series (2002-2003). 1 Season. 21 Episodes. From writers Brandon Camp and Mike Thompson (Dragonfly) and director Mimi Leder (Pay It Forward, Deep Impact, The Peacemaker) comes the story of John Doe, a mysterious man who rises from the frigid water off an isolated island, possessing knowledge of literally everything in the world, yet having no memory of who — or even what — he is. Doe quickly finds his way to Seattle, where he befriends the police and uses his special gift to help them solve "impossible" crimes, while continuing his unending quest to uncover who he is and where he came from.
Despite his considerable charm, John Doe (Dominic Purcell) is an emotional island unto himself. Want to know the population of Peru in 1853? How many blue cars there are in the state of Washington? The exact ingredients in a box of Apple Jacks? Or better yet, predict which horse will win every race at the track based on knowing all the statistical variables? Doe has all the answers. But what is he like? Family man or loner? Hero or villain? What is truly in his soul? Doe doesn't have a clue.
In his search to unlock the key to his past, Doe is joined by Karen Kawalski (Sprague Grayden), his unwitting assistant and one of his few friends. The two of them work to piece together the case of a missing girl who Doe mysteriously feels may have some connection to his previous life or hold a clue to his identity. Doe's small circle of friends also includes Digger (William Forsythe), a Seattle bar owner who is both his ally and his confidant. Doe's extraordinary talents catch the eye of Det. Frank Hayes (John Marshall Jones), the cop assigned to the missing-girl case, who sees something special in this odd stranger. Hayes' boss, Lt. Jamie Avery (Jayne Brook), on the other hand, is not so easily convinced that Doe is on the straight and narrow; she seeks to uncover the truth about him in her own way.
He might be a government agent, an extraterrestrial, or perhaps just a regular "John Doe" with an unusual bout of amnesia. Whatever secrets his past holds, Doe is now the man who knows everything — a gift that will forever change his destiny. But will it be a blessing or a curse?-

- Critics' reviews
-
-
"Highly arresting."
-
"The shrewd thing about John Doe is that it uses its fantasy element as an addition, not a substitute for interesting characters and good storytelling. At its heart, this is just a mystery show with a twist"
-
"I found the lead's lack of irony or even much anxiety a bore. Just because you don't know who you are doesn't mean you can't be self-aware. "
-
"'John Doe' is alluring because it flows so easily from humor to drama then back again and because Dominic Purcell's smooth performance as John is perfectly in tune with that fluid style"
-
"The fun part of this series is watching Doe become aware of his powers and limitations. Purcell supplies all the wonder and charm needed to turn Doe into a fascinating and curious character."
-
"It's so stylishly executed, with Mimi Leder's direction, a crisp script and magnetic lead by Dominic Purcell, that the John Doe indeed has a solid identity."
