The music was a major factor in the creepiness of The Outer Limits. As a 12 year old I was crushed when Outer Limits was cancelled after a mere 1 1/2 years. Absolutely could not understand it. What could they possibly have been thinking?

I really class these as Scientific morality plays in the same core construction as Greek Tragedy. Horrific outcomes inside a fickle Universe where Chaos is the norm.
As a Fundamentalist, I loved them all.

No its just so great to hear from these younger writers as there are so many ideas ,yet untapped...as out tech changes,financial markets,socio-political...etc.
etc. -
No Terry, I wrote the time travel episode which was filmed in Vancouver,Canada...I am so very pleased that you enjoyed it...but I cannot share the sum I was paid for the submission.
Check with your local writer`s network guild.
all best!

I taped episodes from this marathon at a friends house in 1990 or 91. used to watch these in re-runs in the 70s on KTTV 11 in SoCal. Hadn't seen these in about 15yrs when TNT brought these back. Great memories.

I've got the first season on DVD and the creepiness of the series had nothing to do with the monsters(who look horribly fake by today's standards)--it still gets under your skin with odd camera angles, wide angle lenses, fantastic black and white cinematography, literate scripts and great acting. There are a few duds in the mix, but considering they used to do 36 52 minute episodes a year(less advertising in those days) the output was rather phenomenal.
