Commentary: Trek Stars 134: A Transparent Aluminum Nerd / by Mike Schindler

Bennett, Part 3: The Invisible Man.

In 1975, Harve Bennett teamed with another future television legend, Steven Bochco, to create his second television show, The Invisible Man. Based on the book by H.G. Wells, the series was a modern retelling of the sci-fi classic, about a scientist who accidentally turns himself invisible.

In this episode of Commentary: Trek Stars, Mike and John take a look at Bennett's second series. We discuss our thoughts on the show, the changes that were made after the pilot, and their second attempt at adapting the novel. We also discuss expanded elements from the Star Trek IV novelization.
