Um... Apparently there was a 1950s series called "Tom Corbett, Space Cadet" that was loosely based on his "Space Cadet" novel, as well as an animated miniseries based on "Red Planet". Haven't seen any of those. And yes, two movies credit "Puppet Masters" as inspiration.
www.imdb.com - wonderful site, though they have no info for Have Spacesuit yet.
Oh dear, and just based on Googling, it looks like someone's writing a screenplay for Moon is a Harsh Mistress, too. Now, I'd love to see, say, a retro-feeling tv series based on The Rolling Stones...

Think I've seen some episodes of "Tom Corbett"--don't remember where. Will have to dig up some of that other stuff. Which movies credit "Puppet Masters"?--I've seen a bunch that didn't credit it but seemed to basically follow the same idea. For instance IMO "Invasion of the Body Snatchers" was basically "Puppet Masters".
