The film ET (1982) brought forth bad knockoff after bad knockoff riding on the theme "cutesy thing from outer space has to be kept secret from the government." This was one of them. ABC wanted a TV series similar to ET, but after seeing this pilot, they dropped the idea.
Failed pilot for a proposed ABC TV series. It was aired once on June 23, 1983, and then never seen again.
Linda Hamilton admitted in an interview years later that she was glad this pilot wasn't picked up as a series. If it had, she may not have gotten her role in The Terminator (1984).
Linda Hamilton wore a body stocking during the scene where Wishman watches her get out of the shower. She wasn't actually nude.
