Mister Smith - Sean Astin
CHARACTER DESCRIPTION:
Mister Smith is a quirky colorful character who will partner with Warner's character, Kurdy. Together they will go out on the road to help forge new alliances that will help in the rebuilding of their nation. Kurdy meets Mister Smith in the opening episode for Season 2 of Jeremiah, and is immediately confounded. Smith says he has a message from God, delivers it, and then saves Kurdy's life.
Mister Smith joins the Thunder Mountain group but he is an enigma to everyone there. He could be anything: a crackpot, a visionary, a spy or a genuine messenger from God to a godless world. What they learn about him over the course of the season's 15 episodes does little to settle the issue. Mister Smith ("First name Mister, last name Smith.") has an uncanny ability to predict future events.
His comments are frequently cryptic but hold real meaning. He takes photographs of everything and everyone. He tells each person he meets that he is from their hometown - and knows enough details to be convincing - but appears to have no past of his own. He is quiet, gentle, unassuming and a complete mystery.
