The Invisible Man
Created by Steven Bochco, Harve Bennett
On NBC
A 1970s sci-fi action series built on a high-concept premise—invisibility as both curse and spy asset—that balances adventure with domestic partnership and government paranoia.
Dr. Daniel Westin creates a formula to be used for matter transformation. To test the formula he uses it on himself. Before he can return to normal he discovers the government wants to use his formula for wrong, so he destroys it. Being unable to become visible again, he and his wife become agents for KLAE fighting crime.
