Don't forget the third attempt to jump-start Gene Roddenberry's 'dark future Earth' series, Strange New World.

Great review. I'll be posting my own thoughts about Planet Earth over on Space: 1970 before the end of April!

I seem to recall seeing it one Saturday afternoon. The thing was, nobody else ever had any recollection of it…

Wow! I thought I was the only person fascinated by this pilot -- but that Dylan Hunt custom Mego just blew my mind. But now I'm envisioning the whole Pax team in action figure form…

(In some parallel universe where The Questor Tapes was a hit series, the action figures would have been awesome too -- "Jerry Robinson uses his toolkit to open Questor's chest and insert the tracking device!" I'll stop now.)

Anyway, I'm very glad for this review; I held off on getting the DVD because I was concerned about the transfer quality, but you've persuaded me that it's worthwhile. It's also worth mentioning that the script for this was written by Juanita Bartlett of The Rockford Files fame, so people who appreciate good television in general have one more reason to check it out.

This is great! Thanks for letting us know about it. I love John Saxon, but had never heard of this show.

That is so awesome, I wish Warner Archives would ship to the UK though 🙁
