The 4400 Season 4 Picked Up By USA Network

As the third season of The 4400 comes to a close, USA Network has announced that they have ordered a further 13 one hour episodes of the Emmy nominated series. The series will return to the USA Network in the summer of 2007 and production on season 4 will begin in Vancouver in early 2007.

The 4400 started life on USA as a mini-series which aired in July 2004. It was the highest rated and most watched series premiere ever for a basic cable network and the show has continued to draw strong ratings.

The basic premise of The 4400 is that 4400 people who have been abducted by aliens over the period of many years are suddenly returned to Earth all in one go. The returnees had not aged physically but each had developed special powers from healing, to precognition. The 4400 were returned with a mission to somehow save the Earth, though from what was unknown.

    Right no comment as to how he knows that!?! I have just recently heard of the 4400 a week ago. I have watched all three seasons in the past week. Let me tell you, I have never had one show provoke so many different emotions all at the same time. I hope that they continue the show right through to the end of the story.I love it.

    Myself, and the rest of the 4400’s at my centre are glad to hear that there is such a phenomena about us.
    We are human, just like any of you reading this thread, but we have been chosen for the better of mankind and have been given the chance to show the world that we can fix what lies ahead.
    please, do not intrude on peoples imagination by trying to ruin any future events which may happen, after all….You are not the 4400 with the ability to see the future….
