Ranking of "THE 4400" Season One (2004) Episodes
Season One (2004) of the USA Network's series, "THE 4400" only featured five episodes. Because of this, I had decided to rank the five episodes from my favorite to least favorite. Created by René Echevarria and Scott Peters, the series starred Joel Gretsch and Jacqueline McKenzie:
