Strange World is an American television program about military investigations into criminal abuses of science and technology.

The remaining ten episodes produced subsequently premiered on the Sci-Fi Channel in Spring 2002. The series was created by Howard Gordon and Tim Kring. In a webchat during the 2002 run on Sci Fi, Gordon stated that, since the producers felt ABC was not going to support the show, the producers had the opportunity to write a conclusion to the story.

Episode 1 - Pilot
Release Date: 1999-03-08Turner is summoned to investigate the disappearance of a small child. The parents are grief-stricken when they have to identify the body of a small boy which appears to be their child. Through a bizarre turn of events, it turns out that the government has been conducting cloning experiments for years. Genetic material is being altered and fertilized eggs are being used to create children. The final scene of the pilot is wonderfully shot. With only existing light from a streetlamp, we get a tight shot of Turner on the floor of a telephone booth prepping himself for an injection. Sydney is standing over him, watching and waiting.
