* BizarroEpisode: "A Man For Emily", ''without a doubt''. While the theme of [[LadyLand female dominance]] had potential to produce an interesting and richly-textured episode, the episode was filled with {{camp}} Western movie [[SatireParodyPastiche pastiches]], [[JustForFun/RecycledInSpace inexplicable settings]], [[LargeHam overexaggerated performances]] and a [[{{Squick}} strange plot]] where John is recruited to become Emily's 'manboy'. These factors make "A Man For Emily" the most infamous serial in the series' output, especially comparing it to more serious fare such as "The Blue and the Green".
** The primary reason that this episode attracts so much attention is the fact that it guest stars a young Creator/PeterDavison in his first television role.

** The titular Tomorrow People are supposed to be a new stage in human evolution, a completely different species. They have senses and abilities today's humans don't, such as clairvoyance and telekinesis. It's hard to see how they could ''not'' be very different mentally — if nothing else, being able to teleport would give them a very different perspective on distance! There are hints set up early on of this, most notably that T Ps can't kill, even in self-defense. In the 90s remake, Adam has scars from a shark attacking him, and says he had a knife but "just couldn't bring myself to use it." But beyond never technically violating this one rule, the whole idea of mental diffences never really comes up again.
