This rises above most like-minded projects and most TV fare because of a detailed, comprehensive presentation of a future society - the underground L.A. - with obviously a lot of thought put in. This is thanks to a script by old-time writer Philip Wylie. The population of this future Earth is estimated at just 3 million, while the L.A. area has only about 11,000 citizens. Also stars Barry Sullivan as the local V.P. (there are several - things are run corporate style and totalitarian), Severn Darden, Sharon Farrell and a show up by Edmond O'Brien.
