The Outer Limits
1963 - 1965
PlutoTV has all episodes from both seasons on its service.
I been watching a episode or two a day since earlier this month.
I used to watch this series back in the 80s but forgot them, so rewatching them now since there ain’t shit else on that’s new.
A lot of the stories are way ahead of their time. The series is also full of well known actors who were at the start of their careers and still unknown.
Another thing I have noticed is how multi-cultural some of the episodes are with non-white characters in syringe positive roles. I don’t think any Hollywood production during this time period was like how this series is done.
Also, the series has one of the best and iconic openings in TV history.
I am halfway thru season one, I plan on getting both seasons completed by the end of January 2024 hopefully.
Synopsis
"There is nothing wrong with your television set." That famous line opens each episode of the classic science fiction anthology series as part of a narration that makes people think their TVs are being controlled.
Episodes of the series, which numbered 49 over the course of two seasons, range from a mix of sci-fi and horror that feature "scary monster" motifs to episodes focused on the sci-fi aspects of the stories.
Episode writers include such notables as series creator Leslie Stevens and Harlan Ellison.
