The Time Tunnel

[Guest jeffOH]

While looking for "A League Of Gentlemen" at the video store (at flguys's suggestion) I got sidetracked when I ran across The Time Tunnel. I remember this show from when I was around 3 years old. It only ran for one year, but for whatever reason, it made an impact upon me. So, I decided to rent it and see if it held up. Well, 15 episodes later (15 more to go), I think it does. First of all, I like the premise which was created by Irwin Allen who also directed the first episode and produced the entire series. Second, I liked the interaction between the male leads played by th hot Robert Colbert and sexy James Darren. Perhaps that was something that appealed to me even at that young age. Then there's Lee Meriwether looking gorgeous and stud Sam Groom who'd later move on to soap operas. If you're a SciFi geek, you'll probably enjoy it.

 

"Two American scientists are lost in the swirling maze of past and future ages during the first experiment of America's greatest and most secret project—The Time Tunnel. Tony Newman and Doug Phillips now tumble helplessly toward a new fantastic adventure somewhere along the infinite corridors of time."

Irwin Allen was a national treasure. http://www.iann.net/
