劇情介紹
these stories are inspired by the actual case files of the office of scientific investigation and research (o.s.i.r.).
類似於x檔案的電視劇。講的是一群科學家對各處超自然現象的研究。是一集一集的小故事,類似於名偵探柯南。
每一集開頭有一個象新聞播報員的人先出來講一些話。
比x檔案高明之處在於他有很多科研的成分,psi的每一個人都是科學家。他們有一部大房車,裏面是齊全的科研設備,他們開着它遊走世界。

評論
they do their best to make the paranormal-babble make sense to the viewers., 16 february 1999
author: galaxyga from massachusetts
it shouldn't come as a surprise to anyone that this series is trying hard to be a more skeptical competitor to "the x-files." it doesn't have the political tension, the sexual tension, or the atmospheric tension, if you will, of "the x-files," but it's got an amazingly good ensemble of actors, most of whom we've never heard of down here in the u.s.
leading the people we _have_ heard of before is matt frewer, who ought to be considered the actor-saint [god?] of latex (well, he and andreas katsulis, but i digress) for having done max headroom (no, kids, that's not cgi, there's a man under all that plastic). frewer worked full-time filming edison carter, and then the fx people put 4 hours' worth of max on him to shoot in front of bluescreen and then work that over in post. imvho, frewer can do no wrong, even when he gets lame "psi-factor" scripts, he is still amazingly good.
the other person we have heard of before is nigel bennett, formerly "lacroix" in "forever knight." his is an intermittent character, i've only seen 7 or 8 eps and he's made only one brief appearance, but it's so nice to see him without the vampire contacts and _with_ a day job (yeah, that was a vampire pun; i couldn't resist).
the other actors are just treasures; these folks really ought to migrate to l.a. and take a whack at the big time. barclay hope is a cute late-20's, early 30's dude with a too-short haircut who reminds me of chris o'donnell --but it's the kind of too-short haircut that makes physics and psychology look _cool_. colin fox as the senior researcher anton has the requisite mature demeanor and speaks the dialogue he's been given without messing up the psychobabble, and in fact making the psi-babble seem to make sense, which is the essence of this series.
there are two actresses on the show; now, why can't i remember their names, besides their characters'? (oh--i'm watching matt). they both have gads of talent just spilling out of each of them, other than having forgettable names. claire the pathologist (autopsy queen a la' scully) is beginning to have some kind of effect upon frewer's character, praeger, and i am reminded (positively) of some of the bits in "mib" between the lady coroner and agent jay.
a real treat is the scenes at beginning and end, where dan ackroyd does the robert stack thing and tells us that these episodes are taken from case files of the office of scientific investigation and research (osir), a real agency that researches paranormal claims. i'm sure the case file research was never as exciting, or dramatic, as the stuff praeger and team research every week. the essence is that the scriptwriters and actors do their very best to make the paranormal-babble make sense to the viewers, and while the writers may fall short every now and then, frewer, hope, colin fox, and the women do their best to overcome any shortcomings of the scripts.
