Title: aliens..not like us...from another planet..in outer space...
Review: The second season of Outer Limits is often dismissed by serious fans as a disaster best forgotten. The crew, visual style, all had changed. However, allthough not at all like the original series, it stands out on its own thanks to classics like "The inheritors" and "The demon with a glass hand".The majority of the 17 second season episodes are, however, mediocre and some are downright awful. The Probe, the very last episode, is one of the worst. There is enough plot to fill ten minutes, and the cast fills the time by going through some absurd, senseless dialogue. It seems like it was written overnight. The story premise itself (an alien probe examining earth) isn't that bad and could have been the basis for a great story.Sad to see Mark Richman so lost..he was great in "The Borderland". It's also unbelievable that writers Seeleg Lester & Sam Neuman were also behind the awesome "The Inheritors". I bet they wrote this turkey in a hurry.
Is the review positive or negative?
