    • Trivia
      Several episodes contain plot threads that link them together. For example, the "Innobotics arc", the story of life-like androids created by the Innobotics Corporation, runs through these episodes: "Valerie 23", "Mary 25", "The Hunt", "In Our Own Image", and "Resurrection".
    • Quotes

      The Control Voice: There is nothing wrong with your television. Do not attempt to adjust the picture. We are now controlling the transmission. We control the horizontal and the vertical. We can deluge you with a thousand channels or expand one single image to crystal clarity and beyond. We can shape your vision to anything our imagination can conceive. For the next hour we will control all that you see and hear. You are about to experience the awe and mystery which reaches from the deepest inner mind to the outer limits.

    • Alternate versions
      Some episodes on the season DVDs trim the nudity while others don't. The concept DVDs are left unaltered.

      Featured in The 47th Annual Primetime Emmy Awards (1995)

    How about a renewal?
    If they can renew Twin Peaks and the X-Files after 10-15 years, why not The Outer Limits?

    As a kid, and even now (watching the ones I missed back then), this was always one of my favorite shows. Too bad it didn't have more episodes.
