All on youtube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GpeldoEzg2U&list=PL5nu0EE47YsMSaI7NPCzqLFfChR6nUaU9 - CreatorKenneth JohnsonBrian GrazerStarsTrevor EveDennis DuganNina FochA disparate duo investigates the paranormal.Insane Television Show, I love it. Probably awful. I tried showing my friend it and the intro to the first ep almost made him throw up.
It's all on youtube, but as terrible VHS recordings, adding to the mystique. But be warned, it will hurt your eyes and it will take only the hardest core of obscure television watchers to stand it. Also, if you can get used to it, nothing on dailymotion will ever phase you again: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lTM-7jtXha8&list=PLolykv52ALExScIJyPZOcUe9bsNDCWbdn - CreatorPeter HammondStarsDavid McCallumJoanna LumleyDavid CollingsThe secrets Sapphire, Steel and their colleagues find include people trapped in photos, ghosts lost in time and a retro dinner party.Genuine Classic, like old Doctor Who but more horror oriented (even though to be honest Classic Doctor Who is already horror oriented). Very cool and unique.
All on amazon prime in pristine quality. - CreatorHarold Jack BloomStarsCaskey SwaimEdward WinterWilliam JordanTwo agents of the U.S. Government's Project Blue Book project investigate sightings of extraterrestrials and unidentified flying objects.Haven't seen but looks very promising.
Also called Project Bluebook. Might be lost? Maybe in the library of congress? There are screenshots on the IMDB page so it must exsist somewhere but never got a formal release.
Two Episodes are on Archive.org but I'm not sure which. Need to watch to find out: https://archive.org/details/project-ufo-102078
https://archive.org/details/projectufo-1 - CreatorIrwin AllenStarsJames DarrenRobert ColbertWhit BissellTwo scientists with a secret time travel project find themselves trapped in the time stream and appearing in notable periods of history.Very strange, very funny. Insane homoerotic undertones. Doug and Tony are definitely in love.
Available to purchase on normal platforms. - CreatorAnthony LawrenceNancy LawrenceStarsJudson ScottRichard LynchE.G. MarshallAn ancient and powerful human-like alien is pursued on modern Earth while he searches for his long lost partner.Saw the first ep of, didn't grab me. Still notable for it's extremely short life, might come back to it one day.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JvqGS4qrvkg&list=PLEpBBizjDJZbqHUw1aJ0GvWDGbFMeMMHG - CreatorAndrew MacLearStarsJudy LoeAngus MacInnesBruno EyronThe series is set aboard the corporate space station Unity and is a character driven drama about the station's crew.Saw the first ep and didn't really click. Still a really interesting example of Hard Sci-fi in TV though.
It was on Archive.org but i'm having trouble finding it now. - CreatorLarry CohenStarsFrank ConverseJoe SilverBrian BedfordMichael Alden is an amnesiac, who must discover his real identity before the operatives of a mysterious group locate him and kill him. The key to his past might be "Coronet Blue", a meaningless phrase he for some reason remembers.Notable for being created by the late and great Larry Cohen! I haven't seen it yet.
After much searching, it's all on archive.org https://archive.org/details/coronet-blue-s-1-e-01-a-time-to-be-born - CreatorGlen A. LarsonStarsMatt McColmEarl HollimanJayne HeitmeyerBased on the comic created by Steve Englehart (who wrote several episodes), Night Man tells the story of Johnny Domino, a jazz musician who gains super powers after getting struck by lightning.Insane. Super cheesy. Kind of love it. Only seen a little bit.
On Tubi - CreatorDonald R. BoyleGlen A. LarsonStarsSimon MacCorkindaleMelody AndersonReni SantoniA suave and elegant university professor, who can shape-shift into any animal, fights crime along with a female New York detective and his right-hand man.Haven't seen, but it's a classic of failure.
I can only find it dubbed in non-english languages??
