VEIL, Thomas
(Nowhere Man)
Chicago, IL
Thomas is a photojournalist. His latest photo exhibition featured a jungle scene
of military execution style in Nicaragua ntitled "Hidden Agenda." Unfortunately,
the picture contained secrets that the powers that be would rather the world not
discover. And so a conspiracy evolved to get Veil to reveal the location of the
photographic negatives...a conspiracy which attempted to erase all evidence that
Thomas Veil ever existed. First placed in a sanitarium under psychiatric
observation and later on the road with a palm-top computer filled with names and
files, Thomas tried to regain control of his life. Unfortunately, Thomas learned
he was brainwashed by the FBI and that the photos he had taken were possibly a
documentation of four US Senator being hanged. With this new knowledge and the
fact that all his memories [his job, his friends, his wife, Alison, etc.] were
the product of brainwashing, Thomas began to piece a new life together.

VERMONT HOOLIGANS
(Newhart)
Norwich, VT
The Vermont Hooligans were a rural street gang who once (40 years before)
initiated George Utley, a droll groundskeeper who worked at the Stratford Inn in
Norwich, Vermont. When George was a teenager he tried to join the "Hooligans."
His initiation was simple. Find a parked car, get inside, turn up the radio full
blast and then run away. Unfortunately, for George, he accidentally released the
brakes on the Desoto that he was semi-vandalizing and the car rolled into a
nearby swamp. George, of course, never made the grade with this rural group of
ruffians. On episode No. 177 "Born to Be Mild" how-to-writer Dick Loudon joins
the Hooligans, and finds himself in the middle of a rumble against their rowdy
rivals.

(The Secret Adventures of Jules Verne)
Somewhere around the world
Jules Verne is a 19th century adventurer with a brilliant mind. He travels the

Fogg, his secret agent cousin [the world's first female spy] who uses her skills
in weaponry and the martial arts to battle the villainous League of Darkness;
and Passepartout, Phileas' faithful valet. Note: Based on the novels of French
author Jules Verne [1828-1905], the series premise speculates that the real
Jules Verne's novels such as Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Sea, From the
Earth to the Moon and Around the World in Eight Days are not fiction at all but
rather actual adventures experienced by the young Jules who later committed his
adventures to paper upon retirement. This series is the first HDTV [High
Definition Television] 16:9 ratio wide-screen action-adventure fantasy series.
[shot with Sony HDW-700 High Definition video cameras].
