A great show from a great writer December 3, 2008
The first episode of Eli Stone that I watched was one from the second season, and not knowing anything about the show or the characters I was fascinated by it. It's hook isn't the visions that Eli has or the stories related to his visions... the hook is the geniune emotion; the way the show speaks to the human condition.

I immediately rushed out and found the first season and couldn't stop watching. It is now my favoirte show on television.
Eli Stone isn't getting much of a chance to succeed. With all of the shows on television centering around cops, drugs, violence and "let's see how edgy, dark and daring we can be", a show that promotes hope and shows you just how much good is left in the world... well that kind of show doesn't stand a chance.

This show deals with religion and spirituality without preaching. Therein lies part of the genius of this show. It suggests that religion/spirtiuality doesn't have to come from going to church, being a bible thumper or listening to sermons... no, it comes from people. It says, "put your faith in people and be amazed at what you discover."
It's a joy... no, an honor to be able to watch a show that deals with the human spirit/condition as marvelously as this one does.

It's a shame that this show is being cancelled. It'll go down, in my book, as another great show that met it's untimely demise just like: Ed, Sports Night, Freaks and Geeks and, yep, Everwood the other show created and written by Greg Berlanti, the genius behind Eli Stone.

Change of Heart--Far Better Than Average TV Fare November 25, 2008
Eli Stone is fun, it's quirky, it indulges fantasy--and everyman's fantasy life--at the same time it offers stories of conversion; a tv show that seeks to discover life's deeper meanings. It's better than "Touched by an Angel" in that it is not as sentimental although it has some of that show's spiritual dimension. I love the intermittent musical numbers with guest star George Michael. There are not too many of them so that when the come, they really hit the mark. Intriguing characters, fine, natural, believable acting and well written scripts keep each episode flowing nicely. Worth savoring repeat viewings on DVD at home without commercial interruption. A really good show!

I love Eli Stone, a drama with so much humor is hard to find. November 24, 2008
I received the DVD set in under a week. It was new and a lot less expensive than if I had went to the store to buy it. I was glued to the TV for 3 days watching all 15 episodes since I didnt even know there was a first season. I just found the show this year. Amazon.com and Eli Stone get 5 stars each!!!

one of the most inspiring tv shows ever November 3, 2008
every so often all the forces in the universe seem to align and there is a new manifestation of inspiration. for me eli stone is one of those manifestations. its hugely funny, brilliantly written and acted, moving, sweet, romantic and worth your time to check out.

BEST SHOW ON TV!!!!! BAR NONE!!! October 28, 2008
1 out of 1 found this review helpful

Eli Stone is the best show on TV right now!! There are some really good shows, but Eli is the best. I think it stole that title when it first hit the screen last season, and having Jonny Lee Mill and George Michael and the rest of the cast is just a Perfect mix!! This group of people make for the most entertaining hour of TV by far!! They work well as a cast, and look like they are having fun!! I hope that this show stays around for a long, long time!!!
