43147From the 1980 Film VaultIt's kinda like a jigsaw puzzle.<div><br></div><div>The "second" Star Trek pilot approved by NBC after "The Cage" was rejected was called, "Where No Man Has Gone Before", and the hook of the story was ESP in humans.</div><div><br></div><div>The 1960's (and early 70's) went through an ESP craze where the paranormal sorta seeped into all kinds of books, magazines, television and movies. Like bell bottom pants and long hair - ESP was everywhere.</div><div><br></div><div>Paramount Television collaborated with many talented people, (like Rod Serling) in the development of "The NBC Mystery Movie" series, introducing paranormal ideas into episodes of, "McMillan and Wife", "Columbo", "The Snoop Sisters" and "McCloud". For three nights a week The Mystery Movie became a ratings powerhouse gaining for NBC a huge percentage of the audience in the 1970's.</div><div><br></div><div>Paramount Television was on a roll and produced other series for both NBC and ABC.</div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div>Gary Collins easily won the starring role in a new series called, "The Sixth Sense" in 1972. Gary was a popular guest star on Universal TV projects and seemed a natural fit for a show about extrasensory phenomena.</div> <iframe width="560" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/kWOhyvhXeKM" frameborder="0" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture" allowfullscreen=""></iframe> <div><br></div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div>Don't underestimate the popularity of The NBC Mystery Movie series! This is television so good I betcha it would find an audience even today. Universal Television managed to get some of the best known actors in the business to appear every series they produced.</div> <iframe width="560" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/LoLCHK_y_pE" frameborder="0" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture" allowfullscreen=""></iframe>eddstarrJul 05, 2019View
