Eccentric LAPD detective Michael Raines' (Jeff Goldblum) unique ability to have conversations with deceased crime victims allows him to re-trace their lives leading up to their murder and solve their cases. Unfortunately, it also causes increasing friction with his boss and fellow officers. Aided by Charlie (Luis Guzman), his ex-LAPD partner and conscience, Raines struggles to accept his peculiar gift - or burden - which often forces him to confront his own past and internal demons. In the pilot episode, a murdered young woman appears to Det. Raines as he investigates her case. A suspect is soon caught, but the woman continues to haunt Raines, compelling him to continue looking for her killer.

ALEXANDER (2004)
Wednesday, March 7 - 8pm ET/PT
Oliver Stone's Alexander is based on the true story of one of history's most influential leaders (Colin Farrell) - a man who had conquered 90% of the known world by the age of 25. Alexander led his virtually invincible Greek and Macedonian armies through 22,000 miles of sieges and conquests in just eight years, and by the time of his death at the age of 32 had forged an empire unlike any the world had ever seen. The film takes a bold, honest look at Alexander's life and his relationships with his mother (Angelina Jolie), his father (Val Kilmer), his lifelong friend and battle commander Hephaistion (Jared Leto), wife (Rosario Dawson), and his trusted general and confidant Ptolemy (Anthony Hopkins).
SHARK TALE (2004)
Wednesday, March 14 - 9pm ET/PT
Oscar (Will Smith) is a fast-talking little fish whose big dreams have a habit of landing him in hot water. Lenny (Jack Black) is a great white shark with a sensitive side and a secret - he's a vegetarian. When a great white lie turns Oscar into an improbable hero and the truth about Lenny makes him an outcast, these two become the most unlikely of friends.
THE GRUDGE (2004)

Within this house, a chain of terror has been set in motion resulting from a terrifying evil that was born years before. As more people die, Karen is pulled into the cycle of horror and learns the secret of the vengeful curse that has taken root in this house.
