The Phoenix
was a very short-lived series that was little more than The Fugitive with
science fiction elements thrown in. First premiering in 1981 as a made for TV
movie, The Phoenix centered around Bennu, an alien visitor to the Earth. Bennu
had been discovered in a pre-Incan sarcophagus buried in Peru. The sarcophagus
was transported back to America, where Bennu came back to life. His swiss cheese
memory told him that he was an alien sent to Earth from his own dying world to
perform some very vital mission, although he could not recall what it was. The
scientists decided that he was an ancient astronaut who needed to be studied,
while the Peruvian government had him declared a national treasure who had to be
returned to Peru. Realizing that his mission was not to be studied he managed to
escape and find some way to discover what his mission was and then complete it.
Bennu had an amulet which gave him an assortment of alien powers.
When
The Phoenix returned as a regular
series in the spring of 1982, Bennu had learned more about his mission. He had
originally had a partner named Mira and it was she whom had the details of their
mission- a mission which would somehow save the Earth. Mira, it seems, was
buried in some other ancient Indian burial ground, but Bennu had no idea which
one. He thus set out on a quest to find her, each week befriending someone and
helping them solve some crisis in their life. Bennu also had to avoid Preminger.
a government agent assigned to bring him back for studying.
