Fantastic Voyage is the story of a team of doctors and scientists who shrink down into a man’s body to destroy a blood clot…only one of them was sent by the man’s enemies to kill him. The movie even found a way to get Issac Asimov to write the adaptation and that plus the timing of the book’s release made people, including myself, think the movie adapted the book, which is not the case. One has to ask themselves…how the heck do you make a TV show out of that, much less a cartoon for kids?
Well, somehow Filmation found a way. Tonight we’ll look at the first episode to get some idea of what they came up with. Obviously a few liberties were taken.
