The Outer Limits
Created by Leslie Stevens, The Outer Limits was a creepy American science fiction TV show from the early 1960s, one of the many series influenced by The Twilight Zone. Each episode is unrelated to the previous, with very occasional sequels. Short-lived, the show ran originally ran from 1964 to 1965 and its writers included creator Leslie Stevens, Joseph Stefano (screenwriter for Alfred Hitchcock's shocker \Psycho), who was also the executive producer for the first season, and Harlan Ellison, who wrote two episodes (Soldier and Demon with a Glass Hand) that were the inspiration for the Terminator film series.The Outer Limits was revived in the mid-1990s as a syndicated series that ran for seven seasons until 2002. Every season, there is a clip show attempting to connect the plots of half of the episodes that season. A scene of soft-core sex is frequently featured per episode as well. In fact, the show released a DVD anthology called Sex & Science Fiction. Female top nudity is occasionally featured. Settings are mostly modern on earth, sometimes into the future. Space travel and time travel are sometimes themes as well.
