Trivia:

None of the main cast (other than Harry Hamlin who had signed on for only one episode) knew if their character was going to survive to the end of any episode until the day before they got the script. Rather than letting them read about it in the script the job of telling an actor that his or her character was going to be killed in the next episode fell to the Executive Producer Karim Zreik, a job that earned him the nick name "The Assassin".

The best thing on TV in ions!

This is the greatest show! It's about time something different and exciting airs on TV! Reminds me of the old mini-series they used to run... only ten times better! We got hooked after the first episode, and look forward to seeing it every week. This week watching was like being on a roller coaster...a thrill a minute! Held your interest all the way through! I see some serious withdrawal coming our way when it is over! If they cancel this program before the end, CBS will be in for some serious boycotting! All we can say is, bring on more super shows like this for all of us that would rather stay home and watch than go out on a Saturday night... and there are lots of us out here! Thanks CBS! Here's hoping you will release it on DVD so we can see it over and over again!
