Way back when, on March 1, I blogged about Jenni Baird joining the cast of The 4400 as a “new authority figure who has a relationship with NTAC agent Tom Baldwin.”
As soon as I blogged about it, the item disappeared off the SciFiWire.
I swore I didn’t make it up (I’d never even heard of Jenni Baird before, honest!), and now SciFiWire has made it up to me, with this story.
The show’s exec producer, Ira Steven Behr, says he is hell-bent on making “a romantic pairing on this show work if I have to go in there and do it myself.” Um, hate to break it to you Behr, but you could have made it work at any time. Aren’t you the exec prod?
Great show, cast. But I’d like to see them bring back Alanna, Tom’s true love.
Behr also tells SciFiWire that the season is basically in three story arcs:
• The first focuses on the folks who risked death (instead of being taken against their will) to take the promicin to gain 4400 powers.
• The second arc focuses on the show’s “mythology”  i.e., why people were taken to the future and given X-Men-like powers  and also on Richard Tyler, Isabelle’s conflicted father.
• The final three episodes “will kick things into ‘space madness,’” according to Behr and SciFiWire. Whatever that means.
Supposedly, though, we finally do find out why the 4400 really were taken and what all this was for.
Cool.
