Another review here compared this to Eerie Indiana, and honestly that is apt, the best possible description for a TV show that few people know actually existed. And that's a shame, Sweeney is a John Cusack clone that has a Fox Mulder under-acted style, which transfers nicely to a show that is kind of comically out there and still skeptical. Another reviewer called it Quirky, which is another apt review given that the writers found the time to add in little throw away instances of luck and coincidence as mundane as finding a penny while still focusing on the bigger story in the episode. It makes for quirky, tongue-in-cheek fun. Unfortunately it was short lived, obscure, and darn near impossible to find today.
