As I mentioned above, I only have experience with the TIME TUNNEL ViewMaster reels. All of those are indeed alternate shots taken during the episode's filming or rehearsals by the special 3D cameras. In one shot on my set, you can see the microphone clearly low in the frame.
And of course the...
But wouldn't there be at least a mention of CBS as "licensed from CBS, Inc."
Remember, all other iterations of TWILIGHT ZONE over the years have CBS all over them. It's just this one-off movie.
I have a sort of odd question about this film. I don't own a Blu-ray, but I do own a DVD and I was checking it with regards to the freezing problems on some WB discs.
And then I got to thinking...how in the world did this title fall into the hands of Warner Brothers? Every other iteration of...
I never grabbed the ViewMaster set for STAR TREK - in fact, I really didn't think to grab ANY ViewMaster sets. I was already a teenager in the STAR TREK era so I think ViewMaster sets seemed like a relic from childhood.
There is however one story about ViewMaster and another show and me. One...
And I can confirm that I had one of those that contained the "Goodnight Sweetheart" music. Though my memory failed me regarding having a LaserDisc, I surely did have one of those VHS tapes with the transporter background, and it was an episode I watched often. Always had "Goodnight Sweetheart"...
Now that you say that and I think more on it, I never had an LD of that title. Sorry for my misinformation. What I DID have was two different VHS copies. One was from the very early release through Fotomat. They sold those off when they got out of the tape rental business.
Then the numbered...
Though I had both VHS and LaserDisc originals of "City...", I was lucky enough to have always gotten copies with "Goodnight Sweetheart" intact. In fact, I think someone here may have sent me one of the altered versions, jut so I could hear the change.
I'm pretty much satisfied with STREETS on DVD, but would love to see THE INVADERS get an HD release on Blu-ray. As a science-fiction drama, it should be a perennial seller. The DVDs look like they were slapped together quickly, and what I see in syndication (MeTV) for THE INVADERS is a total...
About five or six years ago maybe, I got wind of Big Lots selling THE STREETS OF SAN FRANCISCO, Season 1-3, at a pretty low price. I think it was $10 or $15 for three full seasons. So I went to the local Big Lots and sure enough, there they were, along with 1-3 of THE UNTOUCHABLES too. I picked...
We ploughed through that documentary sometime last year, I think. I know it didn't take us long to get through it.
As one who was there from the first NBC Peacock of STAR TREK, 'and' who was a young adult for the animated series, I was both happy and a bit dismayed with the animated series. It...
I've noticed the Worf development as well. We're into the second season and the writers are still giving him militaristic lines and positions. In "Where Silence Has Lease", as he and Riker are confused about the multiple bridges on the "Yamato", he barks at Riker and snarls at a closing door...
No antenna will go 2,000 miles. Television signals at best are line of sight.
I have an outdoor antenna that picks up 130 channels as I live directly and exactly halfway between Tampa and Orlando and get TV from both cities. We stream from Amazon, Paramount and MLB for subscriptions, and use...
I managed to get all of the episodes from MeTV a number of years ago when they were running there. These prints on Amazon looked a good bit better, so I'll miss having access to these better versions.
Perhaps it will turn up somewhere else.
I seem to have "trained" my Roku to not automatically switch to the next program. It seemed that with perseverance, hitting that down-arrow on every Amazon or Paramount+ show or movie, it stopped automatically starting the next thing. It still is giving me the option to start what they think is...
"The Arsenal Of Freedom" happened to be last night's TNG episode on the H&I (Heroes & Icons) Channel. One of the things I really liked about the episode was the bright colors of the planet Minos. The green foliage against the brilliant blue sky looked good on old CRTs but even better in High Def...
Last night, I found myself awakened in the 2 AM hour. To help getting back to sleep I put on MeTV as they were running THE FUGITIVE. I came in right at the start of "Act II" and saw Murray Hamilton and Patricia Smith in a kitchen scene. It took me a minute, but I finally figured out that it was...
It was purely the bad make-up and Rohner's hammy acting that put me off of this episode. I get the same vibe from that Albert Finney SCROOGE and am simply taken out of any story. I DID like that Michael Pataki got a chance at THE NEXT GENERATION and remembered him from his TOS turn, but the...
I stuck with THE NEXT GENERATION all the way through. I taped every episode. "New Trek" was a precious commodity back then as other than the movies, we were still basically stuck with 79 well-worn episodes.
So even though some of the early Season One episodes had me rolling my eyes, or at least...
Last night's episode on H&I was the first season "Home Soil" and it's one that I usually choose to skip over, but I sat through a good bit of it just because it was there.
I always had a problem with Walter Gotell in this episode. I can't put my finger on it, but he seemed like an actor playing...
I tried, years ago, to watch Albert Finney's musical version of SCROOGE. I couldn't get past about ten minutes into it. And it's not that I don't like musicals, heck, I'll watch Mr. Magoo's version all day long and sing along. No, to me there was something off about Albert Finney's acting, his...
