We’ll be stepping inside The Time Tunnel to discover why it was short-lived — and why it is still loved today and we’ll also debunk persistent rumors about the show including one about an episode that was “banned from the airwaves.”
The series had everything a 1966 adventure series could want: a well-chosen cast, an imaginative premise, a theme by John Williams, The Green Hornet as its lead-in, and Creator Irwin Allen at the helm.
Among the other series debuting that season were Star Trek, The Monkees, Mission: Impossible, That Girl, Family Affair and Dragnet ‘67. While these shows lasted longer than the Time Tunnel’s 30 episodes, this series left a lasting impression on a generation of viewers.
The series starred James Darren and Robert Colbert. Lee Meriwether fresh off her appearance as Catwoman portrayed Dr. Ann MacGregor. Prolific character actors Whit Bissell and John Zaremba were cast as General Kirk and Dr. Swain.
We'll discuss the production, ratings, reviews, announced renewal, cancellation and afterlife.
