Anecdotes

This show was broadcast in the UK as part of "Get Fresh (1986)."

Apart from the series, there was also a comic book series by DC Comics.

Had the series continued, the writers considered adding another Centurion: Ace's space specialist brother, Vic.

The characters all had alternate names considered:

• Max Ray: Max Proteus, Jack Finn, Scuba Ford, Sean Finn, Sharky Finn, or George Striper
• Jack Rockwell: Nat Stone, Arnold Stone, Terry North, "Demon" Frazier, Slate Rockwell, or Butch Moran
• Ace McCloud - Harrison McCloud, Bert Sky, "Mach" McCloud, Glenn Peters, Anthony Flyte, or Benjamin Flyte.
• Rex Charger: Rex Powers or Storm Larsen.

Max Ray's appearance was based on that of the title character of "Magnum, P.I. (1980)." He also resembles Olympic gold-medalist swimmer Mark Spitz.
