Character Differences
Though the majority of the television characters begin from similar starting points as those in the book series, many of the characters, such as the Valentis, are developed very differently. In addition, the descriptions provided for the book characters' appearances conflict greatly with the actors chosen to represent them. For example, in the books Max is blonde with killer baby blues, whereas in the television show he is a mysterious dark-haired mystery man from an exotic location. The images of the television actors are listed below; if book art is available, it will be shown to the right.
