When a movie has you begging for it to end not even half way through it's pure crap. We've all seen this movie and this characters millions of times, nothing new in it. Don't waste your time.

A story that's too fascinating to pass by...

In my honest opinion this series have not aged well. Maybe it is because I do not have any fond childhood memories of the series that I do not think it is so lovely.There of course is some good episodes in the series but most of them seems in my opinion half baked and not really worked through. They presented an idea and then nothing more interesting happened.I know it is an old series but Tales of Tomorrow that is some year older had much better stories in most of the episodes.The series for me also had a problem it could not decide if it wanted to be realistic or pure sci-fi, and most episodes really only had story for about 10 minutes but lasted 25.So I suggest if seeing old sci-fi television watch TOT. There are good episodes in SFT but most is not worth the time for me at least.

OK I prefer OUTER LIMITS as a sci-fi genre TV show. This one I am talking about today is a genuinely interesting one too. I would say it's a sort of domestic science fiction kind show. A way to describe the improvements made by the scientists for the human kind. And all the negative effects that they can also bring. The characters are shown as ordinary citizens, so that the audiences may feel very close to them. Most of the leads work in their homes in the suburbs, most of the épisodes look like the other ones. No aliens here, or space opera here. But it's not boring at all. I just prefer OUTER LIMITS, that's all. The music theme is riveting.I really don't regret to have found it.

This series was an eyeopener for a 19-year-old in 1978. That'swhen I first saw it. I was living in Wolfeboro, New Hampshire, atthe time and I was in high school. Channel 6, the local NBCaffiliate in Portland, Maine, used to air old science fiction moviesfrom the '50s and '60s. Back during the dark days of the Cold War. It started running them back in 1975, when I was in the eighthgrade. Back then, there weren't any cable or sattelite companies screaming for your attentiion. The Sci-Fi Channel? It wasn't even thought of. The stories were based on the latest, (meaning '50s), scientific data. Since this was before the space race, the majority of stories were on the exploration space. There was one episode in which an Air Force test pilot was in a Bell X-2, I think it was, Idon't know. Anyway, he reported another aircraft alongside himand it was keeping up with him. He's reporting all this to theground controllers at Vandenberg Air Force Base, and they'retelling him they don't see a thing. It's not on their radar. Then at the end, as he slows down and prepares to land, the other aircraft disappears. It then dawns on both him and the controllers, thatmust have been a UFO. In another episode, Mars colonists are putin isolation to see which one of them will crack first. The catch was that since they'd be away from Earth for what would be the betterpart of a year, they all had to be unmarried and not have families. They also had to be all-male because in the '50s, they didn't have women on space colonies. So what happened? One of the would-be colonists freaked out. Demanding his electric razor. That would be me. I'd probably do the same. Then one of the other would-be colonists turns up dead. It appears to the audience itwas the guy who freaked out and demanded his electric razor is the killer. But is he? I don't know. It's been 26 years since I've seenit. But anyway, it was a good show and aired right after the oldblack-and-white science fiction movies.

In the mid-50's, even prior to the launching of Sputnik, America's interest in science was increasing. This anthology came along in syndication for two years in 1955-56, and to a young 10 year old it was a revelation that few things were as endlessly fascinating as science. Even though the plots often spun off into the realm of the fantastic, they all revolved around some basic scientific principle, demonstrated at the beginning of the show by the host Truman Bradley. You couldn't watch him, surrounded by all that neat looking electronic equipment, and not want to be a scientist. Many of the shows were quite literate, and the acting usually top notch. Of course, now the show looks dated almost a half century later, but it's still better than the ridiculous shows that abound today about channeling the dead, bleeding statues, and other pseudoscientific bunk. Come back, Mr. Bradley.
