S01E10 and S01E12 Shoot Out at Land's End and the Naked Montague

Let's discuss time travel and the Man From Atlantis! Why not, underwater stories are too dull or too expensive, so what other fantastical thing can Mark Harris get up to?

Oh yes, that's right, let's send him through time.

New to the forums and Fusion Patrol... not sure where to put this, so I decided to put it here.

An AV CLUB article on Patrick Duffy (actually a reconstruction of a failed interview) with quite a bit on MAN FROM ATLANTIS - which, BTW, Warner Archive is releasing the entire series of in a couple of months.

Good article.

Not too long ago (well, less than a year) I saw quite a long discussion with Mr. Duffy about his career - from his time in Man From Atlantis to his current web series, Patrick Duffy and the Crab.

He really came off well in the interview. He's a guy who really liked/likes comic books and liked the concept of MFA.

I think Ben and I both agree that Man from Atlantis had a good premise, but what a difficult premise to try to use. Underwater footage all the time and only one character who can exist there (for the most part.)

Anyway, just today on Twitter I saw that Mr. Duffy has actually written a Man From Atlantis novel and hopes, with the release of the DVDs, that he can interest a publisher in it and 2 sequels. http://io9.com/5825437/

I hope he can do it!

DVDs are available now! Here's the announcement from TV Shows on DVD

Howdy, Stranger!
