WEREWOLF SCRIPTS
Patterned loosely after "The Fugitive," the series follows the adventures of Eric Cord (John J. York), who is forced to kill his best friend - a recently "infected" werewolf - but not before being bitten and "infected," himself. Now he is on the run - wanted for murder - and desperately seeking the monster who started it all.
If he kills that creature, he is told, then he will be free of the curse. At first he believes the originator of his "bloodline," is a drifter named Janos Skorzeny (played by Chuck Connors in his last television role). While pursuing Skorzeny, Cord himself is pursued by the persistent bounty hunter "Alamo" Joe Rogan (Lance LeGault). However, Cord then begins to hunt down Nicholas Remy (Brian Thompson), the real originator of the bloodline. The show aired a two-hour pilot (written by Frank Lupo) and 28 half-hour episodes before being cancelled in 1988 in a dispute with Fox.
Because of a contractual dispute beyond my understand, (I was an English major, what do you want?) Werewolf was pulled off the air after only one season. That same dispute kept the series from being sold into Syndication until only recently. A Google search will no doubt turn up a TV schedule showing the dates in your cable neighborhood that it will air. A deal was tentatively approved for making the DVD's of the show available. But, alas, that fell through because of the same old issues that have been plaguing the series from the beginning. There are bootleg copies of the show, but as far as I'm concerned all the pirates of books, music and film can burn in whatever Hell the Gods Of Artists' Livelihoods have in store for them. Be patient, and they'll be available by and by. Hopefully, on Netflix as well.
Meanwhile, after writing the series of MisAdventures about Werewolf, I was besieged by curious readers who wanted to read the scripts that Chris and I wrote for the show. Of the 29 episodes, we wrote 11. Most of the rest were rewritten by us from the ground up, under the supervision of our boss, Frank Lupo. A notable exception was "Gray Wolf," which was wonderfully written by science fiction master, Norman Spinrad, an old and dear friend of Chris'.
