The show was based on a
comic book by
James D. Hundall and
Andrew Paquette. When the creators noticed the
credits read "Created by
Chris Carter", they sued
Fox to get properly credited, and now the credits also read “Inspired by the Harsh Realm comic book series, Created by James D. Hudnall and Andrew Paquette, Published by
Harris Publications, Inc.”
This show was a very promising adventure series, but it was saddled with an unfortunate
timeslot, which is the
kiss of death for any new
TV show.
