From the Recesses of my Mind...


I was just showing the husband who Ron Perlman is (what did we do before the internet!) and I came across this, and the picture was so familiar! Does anyone remember it? The weird thing is, I can remember the 'Beast's' name being Vincent, but I don't remember Linda Hamilton or the mole people - is this where 'the mole people' is from? I'm certain I used to watch it, but I really can't remember. I find that alarming.
Though it finally explains who Jon Bon Jovi reminded me of after he (allegedly) had cosmetic surgery.

  1. I vaguely remember being very excited when this came to our screens. I don't think I was old enough to appreciate who either character was. I wounder if I could pick it up on DVD.

  2. I've never seen these before, but someone was telling me the other day that it's very good, might see if I can rent it somewhere.

  5. Linda Hamilton's character was Catherine. The reference to 'mole people' actually stems from the very first feature length Superman movie starring George Reeve. Vincent was the only 'beast' residing in the underground subway areas under NYC. The others who lived with him were 'unfortunates'...homeless, abused, disfigured...in some way unacceptable to society. It was a very romantic, well done TV show that lost it's heart when Linda Hamilton left.
