Goofs
When looking up the song about the Star Handled Stranger, Dr McKenzie and his colleague comment that not many people could read back in those days (the late 19th century). In fact, literacy rates for white Americans were very high in the mid and late 19th century. At the time of the Civil War, somewhere around 90% of white men could read and write. Literacy rates on the frontier a generation later would have likely been somewhat lower but literacy for whites would have been the rule, not the exception.

80's strangeness again.

I probably wouldn't have commented on this film. After getting into a discussion about 80's sci-fi movies with a friend, this title popped up. Wow, I thought I was the only one who remembered this flick. Having originally seen this waaaay back in 87' I can say it didn't really get much better with age. That is okay however, as this was blip on the radar. Just one more failed pilot for a series that CBS couldn't avail itself to try producing. It was however a enjoyable effort but one that most viewers could probably see being skewed into a "Voyagers" type programming pigeon-hole had it gone to full series. From what I understand, "Scholastic", the mass media educational powerhouse was to help with the franchise. Alas, it could have not just been entertainment but educational too!
