"An elusive serial killer who adopts the identity of each victim targets Sandburg"

This episode was kind of chilling, the idea of this psychotic taking on other people's identities and people not even realizing it.

Loved Ellison's comment about not being used to having to knock on his own front door. His desperation to find Sandburg once the killer has him. The way he found him and Carolyn's disbelief he could smell anything from the water.

The 'psychotic' guy - was played by Dennis Christopher - the same guy who played "Jack" on Profiler --

Personally - I liked him better here than on Profiler -

He's pretty good at 'becoming' other ppl -- not quite Gary Oldman good - but Gary would be hard to round up for network TV --

And I really liked the way they wrote Blair for this - he kept his head and used the psycho's psychosis against him --- good for Blair -

The guy who played the serial killer did really good in this eppy of The Sentinel, and in Profile he plays a good mad man

I also liked the part where the killer kidnaps Blair that was the best part
