[edit] Production

D. C. Fontana served as story editor and worked alongside several other writers from Star Trek as well as the original novel's authors. The series was produced by Ivan Goff and Ben Roberts.

The series depicted Logan and Jessica—still pursued by Francis (Randolph Powell)—traveling in a futuristic hovercraft-like vehicle on a cross-country trek to Sanctuary in a post-apocalyptic America. The domed city was seen only in the pilot and two other episodes, using recycled footage from the film. In a change from the book and film, the television series had the city run by a cabal of elderly citizens; Francis has been promised a life beyond thirty as a city elder if he can bring back the fugitives. Logan and Jessica were joined on their journey by an android named REM, played by Donald Moffat.
