'Sue Thomas: F.B.Eye' was one of the few TV series to have featured a deaf lead character working a regular job. The show was loosely based on the true experiences of the real Sue Thomas, a deaf woman whose lip-reading skills landed her a job with the FBI doing undercover surveillance. The show featured deaf actress Deanne Bray in the lead role. The series picked up fans from two sources - those who were deaf or interested in issues affecting the deaf, and those who were interested in the issues raised by the show - such as international terrorism, slavery, or domestic abuse.
In addition, the Sue Thomas character's explicit Christianity received much attention in the dialogue. This is something that the actual Sue Thomas would have appreciated, since after leaving the FBI she became a missionary. The show can be seen on the Hallmark Channel in the UK.
