Larry Niven a travaillé sur la série télé Land of the Lost. Le célèbre auteur de science fiction est en interview ici.

Extrait :
"Q: What was the appeal to Land of the Lost?
A: It's a nice basic idea, open to any kind of fantasy. It could have gone in any direction, starting with the notion of an open door to another land cited in a place nobody can get to easily.

Q: Is that why so many scifi writers like yourself and Star Trek writer D.C. Fontana were attracted to it?
A: For starters there was the idea, which is basically very easy to work with. There's lots of open space to play with your imagination, which writers like. But second, David Gerrold worked on the show -- we all knew David. He's talkative, he's persuasive. His ideas were the ideas for the three Land of the Lost episodes I worked on."

Il revient aussi sur sa participation à un groupe de sécurité du gouvernement :

"Q: You were recruited by Homeland Security to come up with ways terrorists might attack the United States. What did you come up with?
A: All I can tell you is that most of the people working for them are better at this than I am. I think my imagination doesn't run paranoid enough. I can reach deep into the imagination, but that isn't terribly helpful when you're trying to predict what Osama bin Laden is going to do. I was only coming up with things he'd never come up with.
