First off, I apologize if this is the wrong place to put this. I almost posted it in the Off Topic section, but since my intent is to try and find the episode to watch it, and look and see if there were any props or costumes I wanted to make, I thought I'd post it here.
Recently, in my many Netflix Instant watch addictions, I've been re-watching Enemy Mine a few times, and remembered 'some episode' of 'some sci-fi show', that had the same basic theme and plot. While I know the whole 'human crashes with an alien enemy, they must try to get along or die', is rather common, the rather fuzzy memory images I'm getting are of some human pilot, shooting down some lizard scaled alien (yellow-ish color?) that had a black scaled jump suit. The planet crash on either has some sort of radiation, or heat issue or something, and if I remember, it was a problem with the alien. They switch who has who as a prisoner, until they both give up, and try to fix one of the ships to see if they can be found. Eventually they do, so they have to race to some mountain peak for....something. The lizard-man-dude eventually has like...a stroke or something (???) and the human has to help him to the top to be rescued.
Ya. If that was a challenge to understand, it was a hell of a challenge to try and type that out to make sense. I know Star Trek has done a few of these types, I think Babylon 5 did, and Farscape, but none of them seem to coem to mind. I remember the episode had a predominant yellowish-orange color tint to it, to try and make Arizona look alien, I'm guess.
Any help, comments, claims against my sanity, are more than appreciated!
