For those not in the know, this show is pretty damned good. It ran for a half season in 1977 on CBS and starred Jared Martin, Roddy McDowell and Ike Eissenman (the kid from Witch Mountain).
The premise was later used for Sliders, in the pilot a group of explorers become trapped on an Island in the Bermuda Triangle which is actually a portal to other dimensions. Each week the group (now joined by an Alantean/Alien Girl, a Healer from the Future and a misfit 60's scientist) encounter a new civilization in their quest to find home.
The show started out being rooted in history but moved to strictly sci fi really quick, many of the locations were used the next year for Logan's Run.
It's continuity is well done, the guest stars are excellent and while the set recycling is noticable, it's still one of my favorite series of all time.
Anybody else remember it?
