including the very first one. I didn't have a TV of my own until years later, so these viewings were by accident while visiting someone. I remember watching this show and saying to myself, "What a crock..." or words to that effect. Give me Bert I. Gordon's "The Amazing Colossal Man."
But of course it was by Irwin Allen, creator of "Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea," "The Poseidon Adventure," "The Towering Inferno," and "When Time Ran Out," so it's really no surprise.
I also remember Heather Young, by name at least. There was an article in the paper, or maybe in TV Guide (this was a long time ago--1968--sorry) about her, where she described her SLC wedding as "the most beautiful ceremony," (again quoting from long-ago memory.) It didn't say whether any infidel friends or relatives were denied admission.
According to IMDB, she has five kids and her last film/TV credit is from 1980. She wrote a musical stage adaptation of "Jane Eyre," date not given, so maybe she made a lateral move to live theater.

Sounds like a happy ending....
