John Doe background

John Doe

A mysterious individual with an uncanny ability to recall details of crimes helps detectives crack cases while struggling to uncover the truth about his own forgotten identity.

John Doe is an intelligent adventure series about a man who fell from the sky, naked, and was rescued by Cambodian fishermen. He suffers from amnesia, unable to recall his name or past, but possesses vast knowledge on various subjects, as if he had memorized the Library of Congress. He uses this knowledge to solve mysteries, teaming up with characters like police detectives Frank Hayes and Jamie Avery, who must first verify his legitimacy. Despite his abilities, John Doe remains frustrated by his inability to uncover his own story, which is likely linked to a secret experiment.
