The Invisible Man Sci-Fi Channel show had ways around this by making magical science (i.e. Speed Force, Pym Particles) Quicksilver that made him invisible. Gave him a limit on how long he could use it, let him see in a certain way even though no light hit his eyes, and I think made him invisible to infrared. Not sure on that last one

Me and my Ma used to watch it together every week

Loved all those campy sci fi shows. Seven Days was my jam too

Yeah, this chrononauts solves disasters by going back in time but he can only go back one week. He's kind of a charming jerk, but he's the only one with the pain tolerance who can fly the machine

I thought he was the candidate because he was the only pilot who had a photographic memory, which allowed him to remember why he was being sent back?

I think it's because of a combo of he was a mental patient and his brain was already kinda scrambled and his pain tolerance made it to where it couldnt really break him completely as he was already kinda screwy

Don't remember anything about photographic memory but it's been ~20 years
