At different times, he had success as a Broadway playwright, film noir director, and co-creator of The Outer Limits with Psycho screenwriter Joseph Stefano. While credited with Larson with other efforts such as It Takes A Thief, The Name of The Game, The Men From Shiloh, McCloud, and Buck Rogers And The 25th Century. Yet has not received full credit for his efforts for Galactica.

I've wondered about this, too, as I felt it "too-coincidental" that Larson was the creator (and is still viewed as such) of so many television series "hits" (and some not-so-hits). One has to wonder about Magnum, P.I. too
