Hello All,
I need the minds of the great to once again help me track down something I wish to see again.
I'm fairly sure it was a late 80's early 90's TV Mini-series.
2-4 episodes.
Basic stuff I can remember from it
It alternated between "earth" and a "spacevessel"
The earth side had a detective tracking down a killer -this killer as the show develops is an alien, is super fast, strong and very deadly.
Something makes me think shapeshifter or colour changing/light refracting. This alien came from the space vessel.
Now on the Sapce Vessel, the crew possibly a prison ship keeeping the alien and the detective goes to earth to get it back? hazy memory.
But the crew are killed off in some way and the sruvivors have to battle the former crew who have gone zombie-ish but with kind of genetic abnormalities?
One scene had the scientists with a big tentacle growing from the back attached to a corpse dragging it around?
Thats about all I can remember!
Any ideas, bit of a long shot, but hope it pays off for me!
cheers

I do remember one show I think was on NBC. They were transporting some creature on a ship and it took down the crew and escaped to Earth. A girl (alien) was dispatched to find and kill the Bad Alien that was pretty much a world killer. The only thing I remember of it was that the girl was cute and she got real drunk drinking coffee. I think the race she represented would be forced to wipe out Eath wholesale if she failed. I only saw the first episode, but there was to be like 2-3 I think. I would place that in the mid-late 80's
Cheers,

Started as miniseries, later a short-lived regular series. The female lead, Maryam d'Abo, is easily confused with her first cousin once removed.
