^An interesting aside to that episode, after double-checking the cast for any Trek alumni I missed: The sweet, innocent little 15-year-old girl living with nuns was played by Ahna Capri, who 14 years later would play the deliciously evil femme fatale Tania in Enter The Dragon, who seduces John Saxon.

Paul Carr actually lives through the Wanted: DoA episode "The Conquerors."

The finale episode of The Immortal featured James Sikking as the head of the orphanage where Ben grew up, and Michael Strong and Marj Dusay as a possible candidate for Ben's brother and his wife.

The Feb. 1, 1971, episode of Rowan Martin's Laugh-In did a quick cocktail party gag about this series: "Y'know, ABC's really outdone themselves....This season they created a show called The Immortal, and thirteen weeks later it died."
