Product Description
Before establishing himself as the āmaster of disasterā with the 1970s films āThe Poseidon Adventureā and āThe Towering Infernoā, Irwin Allen created four of televisionās most exciting and enduring science-fiction series: āVoyage to the Bottom of the Seaā, āLost in Spaceā, āThe Time Tunnelā and āLand of the Giantsā.
These 1960s series were full of Allenās favorite tricks, techniques and characteristic touches, and influenced other productions from the original Star Trek forward.
Every science-fiction show owes something to Allen, yet none has equaled his seriesā pace, excitement, or originality. This detailed examination and documentation of the premise and origin of the four shows offers an objective evaluation of every episode.
A close-up look at these television landmarks demonstrates that when Irwin Allenās television episodes were good, they were great – and when they were bad, they were still terrific fun.
