Product Description
A suspenseful, fast-paced and compelling drama series chronicling one man’s struggle to lead an ordinary life while applying his extraordinary powers to help others. Toby Logan (Craig Olejnik, The Runaway) is a 24-year-old paramedic living with a secret: he can read people’s minds.

I had never heard of this series before. Usually like Ghost Whisperer and Medium. I enjoyed 'The Listener', found it entertaining, although it is not of the same calibre as the afore mentioned series. The characters are likeable (although not wholly believable). I'm not at all disappointed that I bought Series I, not sure if I would bother to buy any more as I feel that there is only so much you can do with that sort of storyline, but Series I was enjoyable all the same.

The Listener is a likeable show with equally likeable characters. Each episode is self contained with Toby using his talent to help people he encounters through his work as a paramedic. A small part of this season is Toby gradually remembering his early childhood and lost mother. I was excited to learn that a second series is in progress, and it sounds like Toby will be more deeply involved with the authorities investigating crimes - this might allow for some really interesting scenarios. Fingers crossed its popularity grows and it can keep going. The set has no extras and contains all 13 episodes. Good news for fellow Aussies - it's region 4 as well as 2.

OK plot, stereo type roles
The idea for the series is quite good, and the flashes of thoughts the main character gets from others are well done. Effects are OK too, however not top. Read more

Good idea poorly executed
The idea of a mind reader using his powers for good has plenty of potential, unfortunately not realised here. Read more
