Tv series version of the novel and 1976 movie.
The opening pilot episode features some movie footage of the dome city and the carousel. The carousel sequence from the movie is a more sanitised version altered for tv viewing. The pilot episode is a condensed version of the movie events. From then on we follow Logan, Jessica and Rem on their search for the fabled 'Sanctuary'.
An interesting episode is 'Man out of time'. A time traveller from the past arrives in 2319. When he returns back to his own time, we find out that he and time travel are responsible for the war (at least in this tv show) as the world fought over the time travel device.
An out of the ordinary episode is 'Night visitors'. Logan, Jessica and Rem seek shelter from a storm in a creepy old house complete with undead vampire type people and other haunted house goings on.
This episode was the first time romantic feelings between Logan and Jessica were hinted at. The show was not far from being cancelled so that plot line never came to anything.
Really enjoyed watching the show again. Nostalgia for me is high on this one. I remember lying in front of the television in 1978 watching this on ITV.
