5GW Example on TV: “The Marked” on “The 4400”
Cross-posted from PurpleSlog.
I really like The 4400. It is a low-key Science Fiction show with a long story arcs.
Recently, a 5GW example has occurred in the form of a non-special ability group called the “The Marked”:
The Marked are a group of people belonging to the anti-4400 faction in the future, and they are first revealed in their eponymous episode. They consist of ten “elites” sent from the future, whose goal is to preserve the timeline as it originally proceeded and to stop the 4400 - in particular, Jordan Collier. The Marked have taken over the minds and bodies of prominent people in the present day, manipulating the world in total secrecy.This is science fiction, but it will still be interesting to see how this plays out. So, far they are akin to Puppet Master style 5GWers.

Invasion of the Body Snatchers?
Heh. Metaphor, okay; but just try operationalizing it! ;)
Yeah there is the body-snatcher thing…that is the Science fictiony aspect. I am looking forward to seeing how they manipulate events to shape a future. It may turn out to be nothing interesting.
