Edited to Add: damn, this show's animal transfermation is so WTF-ish! I bet that was disturbing to many a child back in the day -that is if they stuck around for the whole 20 minute transformation.
i remember this, simon macorkindale(sp?) as the star, my older sister had a thing for him :lookingup: so i had to watch it
I just remember the part where he turns himself into a Persian, then stuffs his face into a woman's cleavage.
There's teenage guy memory for ya. =)
I really, really wish that SOMEONE would release all 7 or so episodes of this on DVD at some point. Hell, they could make it a flipper disc and have it be just one disc for only 10 bucks!
I still say someone will remake it someday with CGI transformations and a greater variety of animal for him to change into.
Hey, they want us to take a new Kinght Rider seriously, so why not this. It has name recognition, and it worked for redoing Battlestar Galactica and that was another kitsch/guilty pleasure classic from our childhoods.
Then again, they tried the same thing with Kolchak: The Night Stalker, and look how long that lasted, or didn't.
didnt his father turn into a bird after he died?
