Please help me title a series I saw years ago. I think it was before 1998.
On a major network, 60 min. in length.

The main character was a middle aged police officer (husband/father) injured
in the line of duty. The doctors put his consciousness into a younger body,
but he was instructed to not tell his family who he really was. Though he
was now much younger than his spouse, he still loved her, and kept near her
and his daughter as a sort of family "friend".

Once in awhile he would almost tell her who he was, but he didn't let on
because he'd end up being separated from her if he did.

I'd love to find someone who has some of these available for trade.

It was called "Now and Again" (1999)

from IMDB

When Michael Wiseman is killed in a tragic subway accident, the U.S. government covertly makes him an offer he can't refuse; they "keep his brain alive" and place it into a new, genetically bio-engineered body. The doctor in charge of the experiment has grand plans for him, but all Michael wants is to get back to his grieving wife and daughter. For security reasons, the government forbids such contact... not that Michael is going to let that stop him.

If you remember, the same year a drama series started called "Once and Again" which created a bit of confusion.
