Discuss and post about this classic TV Show from the 60's on this thread.
One of my fav shows that I grew up watching even though its abit outdated now! 8)
Here's some basic information about his Classic Show..
Quote:
Project Tic-Toc is a top secret U.S. government effort to build an experimental time machine known as "the Time Tunnel". With the costs of the project approaching those of the entire U.S. space program, a young physicist, Dr. Tony Newman (James Darren) turns the machine on and sends himself back in time in an attempt to prove that the Time Tunnel project funds were not wasted.
In so doing, Newman becomes "lost in time". In an attempt to rescue his younger friend, Tic-Toc scientist Dr. Doug Phillips (Robert Colbert) enters the Time Tunnel as well. However, the system was still being developed and tunnel operations was never able to bring them home. As the series progresses, the two time travelers are swung from one period in history to another, allowing episodes to be set in the past and future. Episodes always ended in a cliffhanger preview of the next episode. The final episode provides no resolution, as the series was initially scheduled to continue into a second season.
Starring James Darren and Robert Colbert, created and Produced by Irwin Allen(who produced a whole heap of classic TV Shows and Movies during the 1960's and 1970's)
Classic stuff there Mr S! I remember this show I was very young but watched it every Saturday arvo with my Big Brother. Those Guys sure did some travelling back into History I like it when they met Napoleon and At The Alamo.
I say Bring it on! They should make a new movie based on it! 8)
