Television’s ‘Logan’s Run’ heads to DVD

The track record of transforming a hit movie into a TV series has been decidedly mixed. For every “MASH,” “Alice,” “Lassie” or “The Naked City,” there have been countless disappointments including “The Planet of the Apes” and the recent “The Firm.” On Tuesday, Warner Home Video is releasing another short-lived small screen adaptation of a big screen blockbuster, “Logan’s Run,” based on the 1976 sci-fi thriller starring Michael York. The TV series, which aired on CBS from fall 1977 until early 1978, starred Gregory Harrison; Heather Menzies from “The Sound of Music” costarred. A kitschy time capsule, “Logan’s Run” didn’t catch on with the public. This “Run” ended after 14 episodes.
