Talk:Rotar

Isn’t Rotar the side-kick of “Commander Comet?”
According to the IMDB entry for Larry Harmon:

“He also created an aborted television pilot in the 1950s called "General Universe", in which he was going to use the life size, stationary model of the robot "Gort", from the movie The Day the Earth Stood Still (1951). He then went on to create the studio bound, 50s television show called "Commander Comet", which flourished for 2 and a half seasons. He used the "Gort" prop for this show as well. He made some additions to the "Gort" suit & called it "Rotar", who was the ever faithful companion to "Commander Comet".”

I don’t know anything about this - I was looking for info on the Gort robot, and stumbled across this, but perhaps someone can flesh it out? Jock123 (talk) 09:17, 16 July 2009 (UTC)
