A neat idea but there really isn't any sort of ending....how odd!

Warning: Spoilers
Victor Jory plays a mad scientist who spends his time stuck in his room working on his experiments. He hardly ever leaves the place and is fixated on not just his latest project but a woman who obviously dislikes him but uses him. When she rejects him and his niece is killed, the doctor's mind snaps. Now this is a SERIOUS problem, as he's apparently been working on an insanely dangerous project--a solution that liquefies everything it touches! Now if this isn't bad enough, he's decided that mankind is terrible and is going to unleash his horrible experiment--unless they give into his demand for extortion.

This is a pretty neat idea and the show really had my attention. HOWEVER, it also ended right after Jory delivered his ultimatum! There was absolutely no resolution nor hint of one! This took a great idea and left it rather flat at the end--and the show, while still worth seeing, ended in disappointment.
