The Tourist

[thatguy]

A six ep short series. The series opens with an Irishman is driving across the Australian outback in a little Yugo-like car, where he is chased (a la Dennis Weaver in Spielberg's Duel), and eventually ends in a horrible crash. Cut to him waking up in the hospital with amnesia. In the subsequent episodes he tries with the help of a low-level police woman figure out who he is and why people are out to kill him (a bit like Memento). One of the folks out to get him is an American cowboy hit man (who reminds me of the bad guy in Raising Arizona). 

 There was one glaring plot hole around ep 2-3, where the main character overlooked an obvious question, but all in all, it was a pretty good story. Consumable. Extra point for LSD trip.
