Among this series' enduring charms are the obvious use of footage from theatrical films to clumsily boost production values, as well as some of the more juvenile dialogue. When they learn of one alien plot to attack earth, our heroes proclaim, "We can't let them do it." Time ran out on the Tunnel after only one season. Its cancellation left Tony and Doug to seemingly forever tumble "along the infinite corridors of time" en route to some "new fantastic adventure." Thanks to DVD, we can join them time after time. --Donald Liebenson

Customer Reviews of Time Tunnel - Season 1, Vol. 2
Just to see David Conrad in the bonus, unaired 2002 pilot is worth the price! What a surprise, added gem to this set! I think he's one of the most underrated "hotties" on TV. I watched this pilot twice so far, but haven't even looked at the episodes yet. I watch Ghost Whisperer just to see him in his paramedic uniform.
Lousy Series, Intriguing Extras
I'm not a fan of THE TIME TUNNEL and probably won't watch the episodes in this set. I bought it for the two unsold revival pilots that are included -- the unaired, 2002 hour-long THE TIME TUNNEL "reimagining" for Fox (which was flawed but interesting nonetheless) and the 1976 two-hour movie TIME TRAVELERS (which was awful in every way). The story for TIME TRAVELERS was written by Rod Serling, but I can't imagine that any of his work remained in the execrable final product. There wasn't hint of his intelligence, wit or characterization in the script.

>THE TIME TUNNEL set has a couple of nice extras but no effort is made to present them in any sort of context or with any kind of flair. The whole set feels perfunctory, slapped together with no imagination, creativity or enthusiasm. Which is, of course, the complete opposite of the DVD sets put together by Paul Brownfield...like THE WILD WILD WEST, GUNSMOKE, and THE DICK VAN DYKE SHOW.
Time Tunnel Redeux
OK, lets be honest...I would have liked to paid one price for the full season of the Tunnel. I would have like to have had one total volume of the cartoon Star Wars :Clone Wars too. However neither did not come to pass. I did get Tunnel volume one, see my review if you want to know what I thought of it

>For the fans of Encore movie channel or Sci-Fi channel, we seen these episodes of Time Tunnel before. If someone say why put this on DVD. I say SO WHAT, it is better than the numberous Law and Orders, CSIs and its clones, and other drek currently out there. I would rather watch the quality Irwin Allen put in his weekly TV shows than most other stuff on TV today. Time Tunnel is no acception

>Now let me get off my soapbox on the current state of TV out there and focus on the DVD set at hand. Is this set worth your money? For me, I would say YES...The story were well thought out. The actors did not over play the SF like some shows do. The show is over 40 years old and hold up well- both in content and in acting. Irwin Allen always put the money into his work whether TV or movies (the 1970 version of the Poseidon Adventure is a good example). Time Tunnel, even if it was a one season wonder was advance for its day

>Who cares if the bumper of TIME TUNNEL IN COLOR or THIS SHOE BROUGHT TO YOU BY?...To me, that takes away from the show at hand

>Do I dislike the divided season packaging? YES! However I bought into the concept when I bought "Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea" volume 1 of season 1.I will again when Volume one of Commander and Chief volume one comes out. This seems to be the wave of the future

>The extras are good. An interview with the cast about tunnel. The TV movie with Sam Groom that tried to remake the show and 2002 promo presenation of a possible Tunnel redo (which never came to pass)are good extras on this volume. I would have love an audio commentary on an episode, however that didn't come to pass--for shame!
