The Show

Behind the Scenes

  • Remake of the original series episode of the same name, but uses the original ending. This was due to the script being bought in the midst of a writer's strike, hence why only original episode writer, George Clayton Johnson, is the sole credited writer.
  • Maury Chaykin has said he had the flu during production and doesn't remember much about it.
