AS SEEN ON TV: H.G. WELLS, TIMES TWO

Something a little bit different for Two For Tuesday in the "As Seen On TV" department: two portrayals of H. G. Wells, but from the same series....
H.G. WELLS
AS SEEN IN:
'Lois & Clark'

AS PLAYED BY:
Terry Kiser
Hamilton Camp

Since these were appearances in which time travel was involved, and it was a science fiction series, this recastaway is easy to splain away.

When Hamilton Camp began appearing as Wells, Lois Lane and Clark Kent were meeting the H.G. Wells of another TV dimension who had travelled forward not only in Time but in the "relative dimensions" of Space as well.

BCnU!

  1. That brings to mind the old multiple worlds concept that DC Comics had--Earth I for the Silver Age heroes, Earth II for the Golden Age heroes, and so on.

    Hey, Toobs!

    You go another way for an explanation. Hamilton Camp's HG Wells could be the older version of Kiser's.....
