Review of 'Way Out

'Way Out (1961)
10/10
Excellent but very rare and obscure

Great show. I first heard about this show in the late 80's and it has never been re-shown or syndicated. I believe the producer of the show had all the episodes and either he or his estate had them donated to the museum of TV and radio at some point in the 90's tho I am not sure exactly when this happened.

There are five episodes currently floating around between private deals and collectors. You can probably find them on E-bay. The museum of television and radio in NYC and Beverly Hills have all 14 episodes of the show in their collection for viewing.

Some of the films have problems and scratches etc but again this material is from 1961 and has not received the same kind of attention like the original Twilight Zone has received over the years with the prints being cleaned up and remastered but are still worth watching especially the episodes "Soft Focus", "Side Show", "False Face" and "Dissolve to Black". I hope one day they are remastered and released to the public via DVD but I doubt any studio will feel there is enough of a market for this obscure forgotten show.
