    There was a plan to have a Babylon 5 episode be a sequel to an Outer Limits episode from 1964, with the main character coming to the station. The writer of that Outer Limits episode worked on Babylon 5, and both him and JMS clearly stated that both wanted it to be done but it never happened

  4. 📺 Bevor es gleich mit den #Steelers und den #Colts in der #NFL losgeht, schauen wir noch ein oder zwei Folgen #OuterLimits auf #TopSciFi … das Leben kann schön sein, wenn man am Wochenende entweder nicht arbeiten muss oder schon alles erledigt hat.

  6. I suddenly feel dumb. After having seen the original Outer Limits episode O.B.I.T. from 1963 many times, probably first around 1975, and it being one of my favorites, it took me until now to realize that the eponymous device, the Outer Band Individuated Teletracer, was retconned for an abbreviation for obituary.

  8. "Certainly he remembers everything he reads. Not only that, he makes cross references which produce logical conclusions.

    Then he has a mind? A human mind?

    Well, basically, yes, l suppose he is human. l'm teaching him to think, to reason, to perform. But he's still a creation , a machine. lf he has any emotional responses, they're the ones he acquired from me."

  10. @usluck Remember that #OuterLimits episode (or was it the #TwilightZone?) about the small town where there was a boy who could #disappear anyone who displeased him? It creeped me out when I was a kid, and it creeps me out even more now!

  12. CW: The Gorge, Spoiler

    Ich habe alle Folgen #OuterLimits (die aus den 90er/00ern) gesehen. Und genauso wirkt auch #TheGorge. Im Prinzip ne Doppelfolge Outer Limits. Mit mehr Budget. Die Story ist gut, wenn es auch hier und da ein paar Lücken gibt und sich das Script manche Dinge arg einfach zu Recht legt.
    Ich sag nur Jeep, Stromerzeuger und Cloaker. Ansonsten gute Unterhaltung.

    Musik ist von Trent Reznor. #NineInchNails. Passt sehr gut.

  14. 60 Years Ago, The Most Sneakily Influential Sci-Fi Series Ever Ended With A Whimper—Inverse

    Darker (literally) and edgier than Twilight Zone but inconsistent with monster-of-the-week emphasis on shrinking budgets. My favorite episodes: The Sixth Finger and Demon with a Glass Hand.

  17. @meldrian er war schon sehr vorhersehbar, aber dass es doch einige moralische fragen gab, fand ich gut. Sage nur Genozid und Kindersoldaten. Hätte auch ne folge #outerlimits sein können 😎

  18. The Sixth Finger, a 1963 episode of The Outer Limits. A scientist tries to speed up human evolution. He creates a super-intelligent man, who sadly has a few issues. A bold and interesting episode.

  20. Three 1964 episodes of my favourite US anthology series, The Outer Limits. The Invisible Enemy has sand sharks on Mars. It's OK. Wolf 359 is excellent -scientists create a miniature world. I, Robot is quite good - a robot is tried for murder.

  22. Rewatched an Outer Limits episode the other day. A much darker prototype for Back to the Future. Just a terrific story and Martin Landau is incredible.

  24. I always like to binge on a Thanksgiving weekend. I found that there's quite a few Outer Limits episodes on YouTube! I gravitate toward the Outer Limits as it allowed for a longer form, more nuanced story telling. The content also tended to be a bit darker.

    One of my favorites is Demon With a Glass Hand - it's based on a short story by Harlan Ellison.

  26. @johnhowesauthor @mjc you can enjoy more than one thing though, surely? I tend towards hard #SciFi for reading (and I read a lot) but also love a good space opera. Very much less keen on fantasy which I’ve been known to describe as ‘wave a magic wand and get yourself out of a plot difficulty’.

    But it’s out of the window when it’s film or TV 🤷‍♀️and a bit part of that is because it was TV particularly that was the gateway, via #TwilightZone, #OuterLimits, #DrWho and yes, of course #StarTrek

  28. After the really great 1st episode of the latest season of #BlackMirror I found episodes 2 and 3 slightly underwhelming. The 3rd one didn't really fit the Black Mirror theme. It felt like one of those #OuterLimits stories (remember that show from the 90s?) where some kind of twist gets telegraphed long in advance (even if you don't know the exact nature of the twist).

  29. Check out baby Richard Dawson from this episode of the original Outer Limits. Love him in this scene with Don Gordon. Dawson simultaneously giving us "quietly sinister" and "super swishy" vibes

  30. #WaybackWednesday #review from 1999 #OuterLimits - Misty Moon "Outer Limits was a pretty original Japanese band from one of the darkest times in prog history, the mid-80s. Keyboardist Shusei Tsukamoto, drummer Nobuykuki Sakurai, and violinst Takashi Kawaguchi form the core of the ensemble... The use of violin here is pretty remarkable. Kawaguchi is a very nimble, fast, and accurate player..." #ProgRock #ExposeOnline expose.org/index.php/articles/

  31. The Outer Limits is my personal favourite of the various late 50s/early 60s US TV anthology series.

    Second Chance, The Children of Spider County and Moonstone are pretty fair episodes.

    The special effects are cheesy in this series but the ideas and the writing are excellent. Good clever well thought-out TV sci-fi.

    My review of these episodes: cult-tv-lounge.blogspot.com/20

  32. First pressings of #TheMarketts hit were issued as #OuterLimits (after the TV series). #RodSerling (of all people) sued them for quoting the 4-note motif from #TwilightZone w/o his approval (???) which resulted in change to, um... Out of Limits???🤔

    "An intriguing up-beat disc with a galloping rhythm."

    Beach Blanket Bingo montage heavily colorized (and DE-colorized) by FW and edited to feature my fave raves #BusterKeaton & #DonnaMichelle.
