SYNOPSIS:
Two police officers investigate a series of brutal murders in which the victims have had bodily organs removed. When one of them questions a young woman who has been seen at the crime scenes, it turns out she is an alien from an interstellar prison ship and that the murders have been committed by a powerful xenomorphic alien which had escaped.
Something is Out There is the title of a 1988 American science fiction Television Mini-Series that aired on NBC, and a short-lived weekly series that followed in the fall of 1988.
Jack Breslin (Joe Cortese) is a Police Detective investigating some brutal murders in which organs have been removed from the victims. He learns that the crimes are being committed by a monstrous alien prisoner known as a xenomorph who has escaped from an alien prison starship passing by the solar system, and he teams up with a beautiful medical officer from that ship, Ta'Ra (Maryam d'Abo), to track the villain down. Ta'Ra, being not from earth, has assorted superhuman abilities, including telepathy and superhuman agility, which come in handy during the mission.
Despite similarities to films such as Alien Nation and the TV Series V, Something is Out There was a major ratings success, with critics and viewers enjoying the relationship between Jack and Ta'Ra which reminded many of that between Nick and Nora Charles in The Thin Man film series of the 1930s.
A weekly series was quickly commissioned, in which Ta'Ra, who was later revealed to be from a distant planet called Zeton, chooses to stay on earth with Jack. Posing as his cousin, Ta'Ra and Jack team up to solve cases that have to do with the supernatural in which her superpowers come in handy. By the time the series came to air, however, the novelty had worn off the premise, and the series was cancelled due to low ratings after only six one-hour episodes were broadcast, with two additional episodes not shown at the time.
