ItemImageThere is nothing wrong with your television set. Do not attempt to adjust the picture. We are controlling transmission. If we wish to make it louder, we will bring up the volume. If we wish to make it softer, we will tune it to a whisper. We can reduce the focus to a soft blur, or sharpen it to crystal clarity. We will control the horizontal. We will control the vertical. For the next hour, sit quietly and we will control all that you see and hear. You are about to experience the awe and mystery which reaches from the inner mind to... The Outer Limits. Cult TV series, aired on ABC from 1963-1965. Created by Leslie Stevens and produced by Joseph Stefano. Please stand by...

"The Zanti Misfits" was a classic--very creepy!

I was about 3 or 4 years old when this show first came out, far too young to understand even a fraction of what was transpiring in the storylines, but there were certain images that never left me. As a tot, I was fascinated by the monsters, or bears. I watched the show again as an adult, and find myself fascinated still, although for different reasons perhaps. Some of the episodes, admittedly, don't really work. The special effects are often primitive by today's standards. At its best, however, this was superlatively imaginative television, and the greatest episodes hold up as well now as they did when first released. With a limited budget, they created haunting, vivid dramas that may have technically qualified as sci-fi but managed to transcend the genre and become so much more. The creators of this show were often able to entice the best actors and writers to participate and the results could be magnificent. My favorite episodes? O.B.I.T with Jeff Corey, The Sixth Finger with Jill Haworth and David McCallum, Demon With A Glass Hand written by Harlan Ellison and starring the great Robert Culp, The Guests with Gloria Grahame and Nellie Burt, and Nightmare with Martin Sheen. I'd still put it up against any comparable TV series out there today.

A bit more scientific than The Twilght Zone, and very good, but still an imitation of the original.
