''The Questor Tapes'' is an American TV series in the planning stage. It is based on the television movie, ''The Questor Tapes'', which was created in 1973 (and aired in January 1974) by Gene Roddenberry, who had hopes that the movie would serve as a pilot for a television series that "had the potential to be bigger than ''Star Trek''."〔(Scifipulse.net, January 29, 2010. )〕 ==Background== ''The Questor Tapes'' was one of a series of television movies created by Gene Roddenberry as pilots for possible television series.〔(Trekmovie.com, October 23, 2009. )〕 It was originally conceived as a television series pilot about an android with incomplete memory tapes who searches for his creator and his purpose.〔(ComingSoon.net, January 21, 2010. )〕 It was picked up and scheduled to air as a TV series, but was never produced, due to "creative differences" between Gene Roddenberry and NBC, which had aired the pilot and had agreed to show the series.〔(Itzkoff, Dave, "Return to Tomorrow: Old Sci-Fi Series From ‘Star Trek’ Creator May Get New Life," The New York Times (Arts Beat), January 21, 2010. )〕 Although the series was not produced, some elements of Questor, the android played by Robert Foxworth in the pilot, were eventually incorporated into the character Data in the television series ''Star Trek: The Next Generation'' and the movies based on that series.〔("A rebooted Questor could be bigger than Star Trek," Blastr,com, December 21, 2010. )〕 As one commentator put it, Questor was the "spiritual father of Data."〔("After 26 years, Roddenberry pilot gets a second chance," SFX.com, January 21, 2010. )〕 A novelization of the TV movie was later created by D. C. Fontana.〔(Startrek.com. )〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「The Questor Tapes (TV series)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
