I've got them all.

All three pilots for "Genisis II"
The Questor Tapes
And Spectre

By far, Spectere is the best of the lot. Based on the old "shudder pulps" idea of having private investigators of the supernatural, the pilot wasn't picked up because of concerns about the "Bible Belt" having problems with the focus on demonology. I've always found the most appealing aspect of this pilot was, aside from Culp & Young, the fact that the writers took the time to get the demonology more or less "correct." Other interesting bits are that Culp's character was supposedly based on writer Harlan Ellison, and of course that this was one of the first television appearances of John Hurt, who later went on to do the first Alien movie, and The Elephant Man.

And yup... Gene knew how to pile on the girls, eh?
