Okay, I am a fan of black and white movies and television. It just seems to beckon back to a simpler time, a more innocent time. A time when the things portrayed in The Outer Limits were not only possible, but plausible. A time when we were a little less tech savvy and world weary and more open to the possibility of the strange and unexplained than we are today. And I really don't think we know half as much today as we think we do.
This series portrays every day life in new and often frightening ways. From the opening scene to the final credit you are led on a journey of possibilities that twist and bend the imagination in new ways. You are drawn in to the narrative, you become a part of the story, you wonder where the twists and turns will lead. Every episode is well written and surprisingly well acted. The acting rivals anything on the Twilight Zone, as does the writing. The differences between the two are subtle yet apparent.
If you are seeking a show to expand your horizons and explore the boundaries of the possible, this show is every bit as relevant today as it was when first written. Some stories are timeless, and the vignettes illuminate the characters and their circumstance in ways that will take you to....
The Outer Limits.
