This is far from perfect but may be enough to give the idea: Adrian Paul, the star of Highlander, becomes a hunter of (? fugitives?) in the future. He will receive about 8 million (I'm guessing francs -- about $1.1 million) for the role. Gil Grant, the producer of Relic Hunter, produces the as yet untitled series, which will film in Vancouver. "I am pleased to be back among (?fans?) of television, after three years in film," he said. Paul has finished a police film in Budapest, A Breed Apart. BTW -- the series does have a title -- it's Tracker. It's on the poster behind him in one of the photos.

According to AP's own web site -- he has a "low seven figure" deal. That's Hollywood speak for right around $1 million -- not over $5 million US, which is what $8 million Canadian would be.

When Gillian was working on Baywatch, she named the marine biologist in her episode "Eel Nin~o" after me. Dr. Maier was only on-screen for about a nanosecond (although I think she got more air time than Julie Beamer, dead hooker), but they never did mention her first name.

Ah, then my recall of that ep must have been clouded by the anticipation of waiting for and watching the ep (it was Gillian's first FK writing credit) and the thrill of having a fellow Founding Geezer's name used in the ep and then seeing Gillian and Julie at a convention shortly after the episode.

Did this thing clear enough markets at NAPTE last week to make it a "go"? I heard AP was there and taking lots of "meetings" - I suppose that is a good thing? I do hope they come up with some original plots ...this whole alien on earth thing has been done a lot in the last couple of years. (Yes, I know..nothing is new). Just for fun..let's see what standard plots we can come up with for them to recycle<eg> 1) Pilot episode- set mostly in space..we meet Adrian - now known as "Dirk" - the outer space lawman" - transporting 100 bad guys to a prison planet. Dirk gets sidetracked by his partner, a beautiful female guard, and in the heat of passion, accidently pushes the button that opens the cell doors. The prisoners escape, take over the ship, crash the ship on Earth killing the female partner and stranding Dirk. All Dirk has left is the nifty gadget to send aliens home, his transformer pills (which allow him to blend into the local population) and his 400 year old katana<eg> Pilot ends with Dirk burying his lover and swearing to catch and return all 100 aliens before sending himself home. 2) Dirk meets Planet Earth. Dirk must learn to survive and blend in to a strange and sometimes hostile environment. The food is odd, he eats the toothpaste (Don't swallow the Dentic!"), cars almost run him over and everyone thinks his choice of clothing is weird (he outfits himself from a wash line filled with 60's retro clothes). He does meet a beautiful blonde woman- probably named Rachel- - probably a reporter, social worker or single mother waitress- who is kind to this gorgeous but oddly clueless man. Dirk feels a stirring in his loins but figures it is just indigestion from eating too much Pepsodent. 3)Dirk finds his first alien bad guy. Alien bad guys have better luck blending into the underbelly of American life - mostly because low life scum is the same all over the universe. On the trail, Dirk has his first run in with American cop who will become a regular character- gruff and a bit seedy, this cop, Nick, will become a good friend and helper before the season is half over. Rachel will find herself drawn to Dirk but confused by his insistence that she stay away. She sees him transport the bad guys and is left wondering who the heck this hunk-o-burning love really is. 4) Another bad guy to chase. Further..Dirk's having more trouble with his new body. The pills don't seem to be working and he periodically shifts back to his "real" form (which looks basically human except for forehead ridges and a funny nose). Just by chance, he discovers that Worchestershire sauce will keep him in shape. He now knows tat he can trance all the other bad guys by looking for people buying huge quantizes of Worchestershire sauce. 5) Dirk ends up in jail. Dirk is seen fighting a bad alien who later turns up dead. Dirk is charges with murder. Unable to explain his real purpose, Dirk faces years being as Big Tommy's "wife" in cell block Q. Rachel doesn't belive Dirk is a killed and sets out to help him. Aided by Nick, Rachel finds evidence that the bad guys had lots of enemies. The real killer is found and Dirk is freed. Rachel waits expectantly for a thank-you kiss but Dirk knows he must move on and does so. 6) Discovery. Dirk is injured in a car accident. He runs away from the paramedic and hide in Rachel's garage. She finds him and nurses him back to health- discovering his true identity when he babbles weirdness while suffering a high fever. He swears her to secrecy and she now understands why he is so unmoved by her obvious attraction to him. He can't get involved wit humans- he has a job to do and them a home planet to return to. Beside..he still mourns his dead lover. And on top of that, he isn't sure how this new body would perform . They agree is is best if they remain good friends. She walks away ..still in love. He walks away..wondering about that whole loins thing. 7) The Arch-Enemy.. Dirk finds clues to the whereabouts of Dr. Demento, the worst mass murderer in known space. He killed Dirks' first partner and is the bane of Dirk's existence. Demento discovers Dirk's human friends and tries to kill Rachel. Dirk saves her but in the process, Demento escapes again. He will return 3 more times before the Season Finale each time escaping at the last minute. Ok...someone else have a standard plot they expect to see?

Personally, I'm hoping for an ep where we find out Dirk's home planet doesn't believe in wearing clothes, & in a fit of home-sickness he strides around his apartment--cooking gourmet meals, working out, rearranging furniture--in as little as the censors will allow these days. And, I think we can count on finding out about his species' outlandish sexual practices & reproductive workings. I just hope it isn't one of those the-males-have-the babies (in 2.5 days) things.
