The more I watch ABC's mid-season dramedy Eli Stone, the more I like it. (Thursdays, 10pm - but airing a new episode this Sunday as well.)

Eli Stone (Johnny Lee Miller, Hackers) is a San Francisco lawyer with an inoperable brain aneurism that causes very disruptive hallucinations that lead him to do unexpected - and generous - things.
