Has there ever been a case where a person travelled through and back through time? - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

Greetings,

I'm just curious if there has ever been a mysterious case of time travel on UM? I know for sure there has been 'Missing Time' documented. But, has a case like the 'Philadelphia Experiment' ever been on UM? Someone moving into a parellel universe or into the past or future for a second?

Just wondering.....

Time travel?

No such topic was ever explored on the show. Nor have they done anything about parellel universes. Both topics are probably too unbelievable even for UM to explore.

As for the so-called Philadelphia Experiment, maybe UM had similar stories. But I don't recall anything about the PE being featured on the show.

In order for time travel to be possible you would need the power of 1.21 Jiggawatts and a Dolorian with a flux capaciter. I don't recall UM ever having a case with time travel. It would be interesting though.

Hey GG2, welcome back! Time travel and parallel universes are interesting topics. Although UM never did any segments on these, if you're looking for some good fictional tales on these topics, may I suggest the original Twilight Zone. There is an episode that deals with a parallel universe (called "The Parallel") as well as roughly two dozen episodes on time travel, ranging from the excellent ("Stop at Willoughby", "Walking Distance", "Trouble with Templeton", "100 Yards Over the Rim") to the lackluster ("Back There, No Time Like the Past")

You can get a flux capacitor on eBay. Looks like the DeLorean has been remodeled:

With that new avatar of yours, every time I read one of your posts I think you're tipsy.

Hey, what's this chop-chop stuff? The prosecution has all the resources. Get your office to buy a few flux capacitors and then we'll find Dale Kerstetter to heist the needed plutonium. Platinum, plutonium, what's the difference? I'm sure he's versatile.

Thanks, wiseguy.....Yeah, my computer has had a virus so I haven't been around. I happen to own a couple episodes of the original Twilight Zone with Rod Serling. But, I don't own the time travel ones, tho.....I'm sure you could get them online......those would definetaly be interesting to see.

Those Twilight Zone time travel episodes were superb. I don't know the titles but the one that comes to mind is the guy who is suddenly back in his old home town having a 10 cent triple scoop ice cream soda. In fact, I remember his name because it was almost the same as my actual neighbor in Miami, Marty Sloan.

Another frequent theme was difference in size of humans compared to species on other planets. Some of those were good but overall I thought they were very weak and predictable compared to time travel.

That would be "Walking Distance." Yeah, that was one of the best of the series. I won't spoil it for anyone, but it's very touching, and tells a nice story. I have every episode of the original series, the 2002 reincarnation, and am now on to the 80's version, having just picked up season 1 of the 80's version.

Hey Awsi, we got this non-UM related thread picking up steam, just liked you hoped for!

Yeah, no thanks to Tipsy Ricci and her celebratory (*cough*) coffee.

There was no case on travelling back through time.

(I mean, think of the danger in doing that! You could go back to the old west, get chased by the natives, and then, in doing so, crack a fuel line, run into the cavelry, find an arrow in your car, get chased by a bear, fall down a hill and hit your head on a tough wooden fence. And then, after all that, you could get shot at, and then forced to dance, in a salon, hoping to distract a mad dog, hoping he doesn't hate that name, jump on board to send the spit bowl at him...but then again...that is kinda the worst case scenerio, isn't it? I'd want to go back to the present, part more than two, across a bridge over Eastwood Ravine, and pray no trains...)

But there was at least one case of missing time right? No, two. Someone, I think in the Military, got dropped off...you got it...in the middle of nowhere, phone in to be picked up, then look up into the sky...

Then there was that case of those campers who flashed that SOS to that (Unidentified?) Flying Object, get "scanned" and then returned to their fire, only to find cinders is all that remained on their once ragin fire...

The closest they ever came to this on UM, to my knowledge, were the two segments (there may have been additional segments but I have yet to see them) on people who had allegedly had visions of past lives. I can't remember much about the first segment I saw on the topic but I remember the second segment was about young children who remembered details of what seemed to be past lives -there was one young child I remember in particular whom recounted under hypnosis how he was a Union soldier in the Civil War who had been killed in battle

Oh, I think I do remember the children one where a man's dad had past away and came back as his son. I remember the man saying that his son said something to him like, "I used to look after you and now I'm a kid again.....this is so cool" if that's the one I'm thinking of?

And, the kid who remembered the battlefield, was his name Chase?
